We held the line in our neck of the woods with no significant losses and no significant change. Some votes quite close to the wire which may wake up some of our lot to the necessity of working harder.
I didn't overturn the incumbent but came out with a respectable percentage given the short nature of the campaign. It has whet my appetite for more and hasn't put me off having another go. But this time I'll have 52 weeks to have a go rather than the 6 weeks or so I had this year. Time to pilot my ideas for change and hope they work.
Not a bad year for Labour, not a breakthrough years for the Tories (especially in the North), and a woeful year for the Lib Dems.
