earlier, our political correspondent helen catt explained the reaction to the result in blackpool south. it was pretty obvious from the moment we arrived last night that it was going to be labour who was going to win this seat. but when you look at those numbers that you've just described, what it shows is the conservatives being squeezed on both sides. as you said, their vote dropped by about 30%. a lot of that seems to have gone to labour on that big swing, but about a third of it on those numbers seems to have gone to reform. so it's the fact that they are losing votes in both directions, i think is going to be a concern. and while the conservatives avoided what would have been a complete nightmare scenario for them of being pushed into third by reform, they only did that by that tiny margin, about 100 or so votes. and i think that too is going likely to cause jitters and concerns among some conservative mps looking at those bear numbers this morning. —— bare numbers. now, we have heard from a conservative spokesman this morning, who said that it was always going to be a difficul
