Lobby correspondents had been briefed by the Labour Party that Ed Miliband would swoop into Bradford West this morning to celebrate the victory of the Labour candidate in the by-election.
One small problem, Labour didn't win!
Instead the seat was taken by George Galloway, standing for Respect. He crucified Labour winning by 10,140 majority, a swing of 37%.
Let us trust that the people of Bradford West retain the same enthusiasm for their new MP, in the coming months, that they are displaying today.
