    emails: This was the first election I could vote in and I'm sad to hear there's been a low turnout but I'm not surprised either. When you've got a situation like here in London where the candidates from the three big parties are the exact same as last time round it's understandable that people feel they don't have much choice.

     
  • says we now have 10 key wards in from the south of England. These too show a swing to Labour since last year, albeit slightly below what has so far been recorded in the north of England. So it looks as though Labour will be able to claim progress across the country, but we wait to see whether that progress proves to be as substantial in the South as in the North.
