Yep, you’ve guessed it, Labour’s candidate in the Henley by-election scored a miserable three per cent of the vote. The Tories won, but Labour finished fifth- behind the Lib Dems, the Greens….. and the British National Party. To make things worse on Gordon Brown’s first anniversary since becoming Prime Minister, a Scottish Labour MP resigns his seat through ill-health, meaning that more electoral woe lies in wait for him. The country can hardly wait.
