Last night was the Conservatives’ best in a long time: four wins from five contests, three of them gains. That takes them to 29 wins since May’s local elections, more than any other party (Reform 26, Labour 26, Lib Dems 24).

They're starting to recover seats tsken by Reform in previously solid Tory areas. What you'd expect if Reform are on the slide, which they clearly are now.

News just in: conservatives gain 2 seats where they already had the most votes and one they were a close second.

It was a good night for Cons but they're still down on seats and votes overall.

Considering most of those seats were last up in 2023 they couldn't exactly do much worse.
