Tories face significant bruising at local elections
Rishi Sunak experienced a significant by-election setback and faces further pain in council contests across England.
Labour's Chris Webb secured victory in the parliamentary seat of Blackpool South, marking a noteworthy swing of 26.33% from the Tories.
This victory for Sir Keir Starmer's party was accompanied by successful council wins in areas poised to be critical battlegrounds in upcoming general election.
