An overall picture of principal local authority by-elections in 2021
[Thanks to ALDC for the graphic]
A net gain of 12 wards is an encouraging statistic for Lib Dems going in to May's local elections in England and Wales. On the other hand, the figures must be worrying for Labour, who showed a net loss two years into a parliament when, traditionally, opposition parties make gains.
Even more worrying is that, in spite of their overall losses, the Conservatives continue to win wards, especially at the expense of Labour as in yesterday's result in High Peak.
