Highland Council have finally published the result of the Black Isle by-election. Another dire result for the Scottish Lib Dems in a former stronghold (this is in Charlie Kennedy's seat).
Ind (Barclay) 1,342 Ind (Fraser) 633 SNP 594 LD 489 Grn 362 Ind (Phillips) 304 Lab 194 Con 175
2012 - Ind 1130/677/240/212, LD 646, SNP 610, Grn 292, Lab 216, Con 141, SCP 57 2007 - Ind 1233/985/433, LD 973, SNP 558, Con 408, Grn 267, Lab 192
The vote numbers you have given are not the 1st preference votes but the final votes for each candidate after any transfers . They are not therefore comparable to the figures from previous years . All we know of the 1st preferences are that the Conservatives had 175 and Barclay ( from a report in the Rossshire Journal ) 1003 .
Thanks. I'm simply reproducing the results as published by the official Highland Council website, which makes no mention of what the numbers actually represent:
Commentisfree is veering towards self-parody. Here are two of the editors' picks:
"Nigella, Charles and the ugly face of patriarchal power Jacqueline Rose: What was really on display during the trial of the Grillo sisters was the ruthless nature of masculinity in thrall to itself"
"Why outer space really is the final frontier for capitalism Richard Seymour: The private sector is far more timid than it appears, so if we want to mine the untold riches of the moon, international socialism must step in"

Pleased to learn my old friend Bill Fraser was runner-up. He might otherwise have won had he not been up against the "sympathy" vote.

Is there anyone in the eastern Highlands you don't know?
With another Al-Beeb criminal (with Lib-Dhimmie connections) facing 'nick', may I take this moment to profer that - come the next election - would a [English] Conservative Government promote young Sweeney, Nigel to higher offices-of-state than they would win my vote. Time to clear out the stables...

If what you say is accurate, then the SLD result is even more dire. Nearly 1000 votes in 2007, 646 votes last year, and perhaps 400 votes this year?

I'll regale everyone about IHT and the importance of planning for the 10-year periodic charge with a prolonged NRB freeze if enough people wish?
