Sky calls Blaenau by-election result
...but not Bromley!
According to this report, the Independents are likely to retain Blaenau Gwent - a result that would make me reasonably happy. What would make me happier of course is if something were to happen in Bromley and Chislehurst - a contest about which Sky are currently predicting nothing.
Sky are not usually shy about calling results ahead of time based on sources at the count - so either this means that the result is too close to call at this stage or that they don't particularly like the result.
I think we can rule out a Bob Neill blowout...
Update: Labour has conceded both Blaenau elections. Apparently they have "a lot of listening to do." Just B&C to go, then...
