Really glad I joined the team for one day last week. I had a great day out in Bletchley and Bedford and helped the best candidate win.

Lib Dems can win anywhere

Wonderful result. This goes to prove that the electorate understand the Lib Dems and take the Party seriously even if the national media don't. Now perhaps the media will listen.

great news

This is a great well done to all of you it has given us all hope that the Tory revival is over.

Superb news

A wonderful outcome for Dave and the team and all their hard work. Greens disappeared almost away, and Tories beaten by over 300 on first preferences alone. Lib Dems have to be taken seriously by media now.

Brilliant!

A brilliant win and well deserved. The Bedford team has worked so hard, with a little help from their friends. What a blow for the Tories and a dire result for Labour.
