Lib Dems Sweep Surrey By-Elections
The Liberal Democrats have completed a clean sweep in Surrey, winning all six by-elections in a county once considered the heart of Conservative Britain.
The party's victories could mark another major step in the slow unravelling of the traditional Tory stronghold across the South East.
- Alan Ashbery won in Camberley West
- Catherine Houston won in Guildford South East
- Tony Pearce won in Caterham Valley with 48% of the vote
The results mean the Lib Dems have absorbed three more county council seats, taking their total to 19 and cementing their position as the main opposition to the ruling Conservatives.
Author's summary: Lib Dems win all six Surrey by-elections, further eroding Tory stronghold.
