Makerfield result imminent. Andy Burnham looking very smiley. Soon we’ll know
Andy Burnham sandwiched between Count Binface and the fox guy
Andy Burnham after winning a huge majority of more than 9,000: “We can't make all the great English cities be what they should be without big change at the national level. I always knew one day I would seek to go back to Westminster to complete that unfinished business.”
Labour cautiously optimistic Andy Burnham has done enough, Reform say they’re expecting a ‘big vote’. We’re still around three hours from knowing for sure what’ll happen - tonight at least - but there’s a lot of excitement in the room
Rupert Lowe, thorn in Nigel Farage’s side, tells LBC that if his Restore Party wins 10% of the vote it’ll be ‘the story of the night’. His hard-right party has been very visible in Makerfield in the last few weeks and is expected to make a significant dent on Reform’s support
Makerfield’s new MP Andy Burnham says tonight could be a ‘turning point’ in British politics. He says there will be a ‘Makerfield test’ to make sure places that are overlooked by Westminster are represented.
I for one welcome the fact Farage is finally showing off his green credentials by recycling
It’s 1.20am, everyone’s getting tired, but thankfully Count Binface and a candidate dressed as a fox have rocked up. You can’t beat a British by-election
Top spies must probe whether Nigel Farage's phone was actually hacked as he claims, MPs have demanded.
There are also calls to block him from Whitehall's wifi and prevent him from contacting ministers and officials after he alleged his device had been compromised.
