Trudy Harrison, Tory: 13,748 (44%)

Gillian Troughton, Labour: 11,601 (37%)

Rebecca Hanson, LibDems: 2,252 (7.2%)

Fiona Mills, UKIP: 2,025 (6.5%)

Tory majority of 2,147. First government by-election gain since 1982. Best result for a government in a by-election since 1966. Truly dire result for Labour.
