[mikey4444]

I can't find a reliable link to the Kensington seat result...has it been declared or not...does anyone know ?

[maggiebee]

Think labour took it, but not 100% sure.

[jim360]

I think Labour are *expected* to take it, but there's to be one more recount first, later this afternoon or tomorrow.

[THECORBYLOON]

Latest I read was the count will be resumed to-night.

[saintpeter48]

They've had two recounts and the third will start tonight at 6pm.

[mikey4444]

Thanks guys...its still as I thought then.

[Peter Pedant]

they did nnounce Labour
but now they have announced a third count tonight at 1800

[mikey4444]

The vote must have been very close....I suppose we will know for sure later tonight.

[ichkeria]

The previous recount had Labour ahead by a margin which suggests it will hold

[mikey4444]

Labour take the seat from the Tories by just 20 votes.

[murraymints]

That's close !!

[Tilly2]

That is a surprise, Mikey! Who'd a thunk it?

[zebo]

According the the Grauniad website they had a 0.0% majority, what an excellent example of rounding to 1 decimal place!

[mikey4444]

A clear win for Labour.

[Tilly2]

Yeah!

[mikey4444]

A wonderful result for Labour, just 2 years after the Tories won the seat with a majority 7,361.

This says more about the rise of Corbyn and the fall of May, than any other seat in the UK.

[Toorak]

Who hoo!!!!

[Jackdaw33]

That used to be the Tories' safest seat in London. Bye, Tess!

[ichkeria]

"20" was also the margin after the previous recount. Kudos to the tellers
