1st place - Conservatives, 12,792 votes
2nd place - Psychedelic Movement, 512 votes
3rd place - UKIP, 400 votes

The Conservatives have retained the seat of Southend West in a parliamentary by-election prompted by the fatal stabbing of MP Sir David Amess.

Anna Firth won with 12,792 votes in a contest that saw a low turnout of 24%. The election was not contested by Labour, the Liberal Democrats or the Greens. Jason Pilley of the Psychedelic Movement came second with 512 votes. UKIP's Steve Laws was third with 400. There were 1,084 spoilt ballot papers.

UKIP have less voters than the Psychedelic Movement, that was a groovy result. The fact that about 8% of ballot Papers were "spoilt" sends rather a message though.

Yes, that they can't even beat the 'loony' entries shows was a sorry state they've got into.

I'd imagine that's the real message to Boris, although I doubt he will pay attention to any of it.

It's insanity gone mad!

Exactly. Corbyn's commies meant to write Open The Second Front Now! on their ballot papers, but they had only gone to school half the time, which meant that they could read but not write. Hence the spoilt ballot papers.

Jesus Christ, does no one realise what this means? Boris is on his way out and parliament will be in the hands of the Triumvirate of Sunak, Starmer and Blackford. It will be like an endless re run of the BBC's The Glums.
