Sir Ed Davey celebrates as his party takes a constituency from the Tories. See more by-election updates👇
What are the political histories of the three constituencies in these by-elections?But how expected - or unexpected - were these results? While it has been Conservative since 2015, it does have form for voting Lib Dem.
The by-election vote was triggered after former prime minister Boris Johnson stepped down as an MP last month. And in a direct rebuke to his own party's mayor of London, he said Sadiq Khan needs to"reflect on that". Asked about ULEZ, which appears to have cost Labour victory in Uxbridge and South Ruislip, Lord Mann told Sky News:"There needs to be some careful thought. It's not getting rid of green policies - it's how you implement them that's important."
Green policies"have to be configured in a way that doesn't lead to people being hit in the pocket when they can't afford it". After claiming a win in Somerton and Frome this morning, Lib Dem leader Sir Ed Davey shot confetti out of a cardboard cannot emblazoned with the words"get these clowns out of No 10!". Last June, Mr Davey celebrated the victory in Tiverton and Honiton by unveiling a door.
ULEZ is the controversial plan to expand the zone where people have to pay a £12.50 daily fee to drive in London if their car does not meet emission standards. "We know the ULEZ has cleaned the air in central London by almost 50%. What about those in outer London?" For this reason, Sir Keir will want to"put clear blue water between himself and Rishi Sunak", Beth says. David Williams, chair of the Uxbridge and South Ruislip Constituency Labour Party, has quit both his job as chair and the party, saying"politics needs to have principles".
What Mr Mercer may not have recalled when he said that at around 5am was that one of his fellow ministers is also in her 20s.
