Well over here in Reading East we moved from ultra-marginal Tory to safe as houses, and kicked Labour in to 3rd

Looking forward to the council results later...

Blimey I'd forgotten the local elections

So hope we've got rid of labour, what a mess they've made of Reading over the last 10 years.

I was actually a little annoyed that there was neither UKIP or BNP on the local ballot!

Reading becomes tory town - blimey - who'd have thought

Good job lads
