A council election result shows Tory vote vulnerable when they would have expected it to improve.

Congratulations to Mark Harrison, elected as a Labour councillor for Princes ward in Kennington (Vauxhall constituency) on Thursday. Mark received 1,726 votes, or 41% of the vote, compared to the LibDem candidate who had 1,396.

Labour Party members should not let the European election results tip them into despair. A lot was going on around these elections.
