With the two main parties losing seats, the most likely general election result is a hung parliament - and more Brexit stalemate.
For the record, Bolsover has been run by a Labour administration since its creation in 1973.
This has not been a good display by Labour - making a net loss of seats and councils, and losing vote share as well, suggests they are a long way away from being a viable alternative. The upshot of this disillusionment with the two main parties is that demands for a general election might now subside.
Votes are being lost by both the Conservatives and Labour with the Liberal Democrats likely to increase its current number of MPs. In short, another hung parliament is the most likely outcome and the Brexit stalemate would not be resolved.
