Congratulations Bedford Lib Dems!

Congratulations to Dave Hodgson, the new Mayor of Bedford!

A really promising result for us and a real disappointment for Labour and the Tories. Bedford Borough is a lot more rural than it's name suggests, and the Tories were predicted to do very well, and polled 49.9% in Mid Beds in the last general election.

If the Conservatives really were the only party with solutions to Britain's problems and a plan for the future they would've romped home in this election. Instead it's clear that people are putting their trust in the Liberal Democrats to represent them at local government level.

Labour can take nothing away from this election. Just more evidence that 2-party politics is dead and buried and that Labour are beyond recovery.

Congratulations once again and all the best in your new post, Dave!
