By-election analysis: What just happened?

By-election analysis: What just happened?

By Sky News

Boris Johnson’s reputation as an election winner has come to an end with a double by-election loss and the resignation of Oliver Dowden as party chairman. In Tiverton and Honiton, the Conservatives saw a majority of 24,000 evaporate as the Liberal Democrats triumphed. In Wakefield, the “red wall” constituency won by the Conservatives in 2019 was taken back by Labour.

On the Sky News Daily, Niall Paterson is joined by deputy political editor Sam Coates in Tiverton, chief political correspondent Jon Craig in Wakefield and political correspondent Tamara Cohen in Westminster.
