The result in Tamworth represents the biggest Conservative majority overturned by Labour at a by-election since 1945.
Swings of over 20 percentage points were recorded at both the Mid Bedfordshire and Tamworth by-elections
In other words, a net change of 20 in every 100 people who voted Conservative in 2019 needed to switch sides to Labour. The Liberal Democrats also improved on their performance in 2019, increasing their vote share from 13% to 23%. The Tories’ share of the vote dropped sharply from 66% at the 2019 general election to 41%, while Labour’s share rose from 24% to 46%.
A by-election took place in South East Staffordshire in April 1996, roughly one year ahead of a general election.And then, as now, Labour won the seat on a huge swing: 22.1 percentage points, very close to the 23.9 point swing they achieved in Tamworth on Thursday.
