'It's a very good result for us'. Labour's national campaign co-ordinator Shabana Mahmood says the PM 'should be worried' after the by-election in Old Bexley and Sidcup saw the Tory Party win by a smaller majority. Breakfast:
The main issues raised by residents during his campaign had been crime and policing, public transport, and problems with health services such as getting GP appointments.The by-election saw a swing of 10.2% from the Conservatives to Labour, with a turnout of 33.5%
Conservative Party chairman Oliver Dowden told Sky News the by-election outcome was a"good result for a governing party mid-term". "This idea that Labour have made some surge ahead is really for the birds. They have actually got about the same vote share as they secured under Jeremy Corbyn in 2017. She said:"We've been knocking on doors for weeks here and finding many, many Conservative voters that have said actually I'm not going to vote for them this time, I'm going to vote for Labour.
