Local elections - the results

A DAY of hard campaigning in the sunshine for all candidates on Thursday (May 4) saw the Liberal Democrats claw back losses from their 2004 ousting from power.

The people in yellow won four seats from the Tories, regaining control of Northbrook and taking both Durrington seats.

The sole Tory gain, on a night which ended seven-all across the contested seats, was Central ward where Paul Yallop narrowly edged out Janet Goldsbrough-Jones.
