Rishi Sunak suffers double by-electoin defeat

  • 10 months ago
Rishi Sunak faced double by-election defeat in safe Tory seats, with Labour and Lib Dems overturning majorities of about 20,000. Labour won Selby & Ainsty, while Lib Dems took Somerton & Frome, making Tory MPs concerned about their own majorities. Yet, Sunak avoided being the first PM since 1968 to lose three by-elections, as Labour couldn't secure victory in Boris Johnson's former seat of Uxbridge & South Ruislip. Report by Covellm.
