Braintree

Results in for Braintree, where Alan Hurst (Labour) has been defeated by the Tory. The Greens were up to 2.5%, which I'm pleased about, but... bollocks. This means that if I'm making a complant about the abysmal rail service to my station (which I do on a very regular basis) I'm doing it to a Tory. Why can't we have multi-member constituencies like in the Euro elections? On the upside, the result in Erewash has just been announced, and Robert Kilroy Silk has 'probably lost his deposit'. Ho ho ho.
