    A curious fact about Winston Churchill - "Greatest Briton" that he was - is that he only won one out of the three elections that he fought as leader of the Conservative party, and even that victory was small. (A overall majority of 17 seats in 1951)

    Without the Ulster Unionists there would have been no Tory majority in 1951 when ,of course, Labour won the popular vote.

    Lib Dem signs of life

    Britain Elects ‏@britainelects
    Holmwood (Mole Valley) result:
    LDEM - 50.2% (+24.0)
    CON - 30.7% (+2.1)
    UKIP - 12.5% (-19.1)
    GRN - 6.6% (-)
    Changes from 2014.


    Liberal Democrats hold their Holmwood seat on Mole Valley District Council and gain the second seat from UKIP.

    Bloody hell! Winning here, indeed :D
