Voters in Tamworth and Mid Bedfordshire have been voting in by-elections triggered by the resignation of their Conservative MPs. Follow live updates as counting gets under way.
Pat McFadden MP, Labour's National Campaign Coordinator, has offered some reaction at the close of the polls in the Tamworth and Mid Bedfordshire by-elections.'Our candidates and their teams in Tamworth and Mid Bedfordshire have worked extraordinarily hard to put Labour in the race for what are usually safe Tory seats,' he said.
He said their campaigns focused on tackling crime, bringing down NHS waiting lists and addressing the cost of living crisis.'We've spoken to thousands of local people who are fed up with this chaotic, distracted Tory party that does nothing but lurch from crisis to crisis.'The fact that we are even on the pitch is a sign of how far the Labour Party has changed - we are making real progress in all corners of our country and showing that with Labour, we can get Britain’s future back.
