The last few come in
May 6th, 2005Some marginals trickling in now…Bob Marshall-Andrews retains Medway, the Lib Dems sneak Westmorland off the Conservatives’ Tim Collins (perhaps their most senior casualty), but the Tories have just grabbed a clutch of marginals off Labour. In all, if I were from either opposition party I’d be pleased - the Lib Dems lost just three seats and gained 14 (so far). Cambridge is still to come, it’s very close there from what I hear, with the Lib Dems threatening to take the seat. And to be honest, Labour can’t be too displeased, given how dire it was looking earlier on they’ve managed to retain some marginals (such as Dorset South, just now).
