Let's get ready to rumble.

Let's get ready, ready, let's get ready, ready, let's get ready to rumble.

Watch us wreck the mic, watch us wreck the mic, watch us wreck the mic.

Sike.

Let's get ready, let's get, ready, let's get, let's get, let's get.

We were able to break the news to you, the reform have won the Runcorn by-election by some considerable margin.

It used to be four seats in the first count.

Then Labour asked for a recount.

It went to six seats.

People are saying it's a small number, but actually is it really a small number?

Because at the end of the day, the swing is absolutely huge.

It was one of Labor's safest seats previously held by Mike Amesbury, of course, who lost it

as a result of punching one of his constituents, who didn't take too kindly to that. He was then

charged and convicted of criminal assault. He didn't go to prison, but he had to step down.

And now reform, we've got back to five MPs. They've elected a woman by the name of Sarah Pochin, I think it is. We're going to learn more about her as we go forward. We've also got Dame Andrea Jenkins, who is now the new mayor of Lincolnshire. And it's expected that reform currently up 71 seats in the council elections as far as we know up to 730

could be in control of a few councils around the country as well so a pretty poor night for

labour and even worse nights I might argue for the Tories but Nigel Huddleston who was just

trying to defend the Tories record there not taking it terribly well let's talk to John Rental

Chief political commentator at the Independent,

because I suppose you might say, John, I told you so.

Did you? Good morning.

Well, I mean, I always said that reform were going to win Runcorn.
