While the whole world seems to be focused on the hung parliament negotiations I'd like to turn your attention to the results in Bexley and Bromley.
The great news is that at both the parliamentary and council levels the results were excellent for us. In both Bexley and Bromley the success of the Conservative administrations was recognised by the voters and rewarded with an increase in the number of Conservatives on Bromley council and in Bexley the Conservatives maintained their position holding all but 11 seats.
At the parliamentary level Bob Neill and David Evennett were both returned with increased majorities, James Brokenshire, Jo Johnson and Bob Stewart comfortably won their new seats. Chis Phillips and Colin Bloom had tough fights in Lewisham West & Penge and Erith & Thamesmead respectively but both increased their vote and share of the vote making both seats very winnable at the next election.

Chris Phillips (as I believe he likes to be known) may have increased his share of the vote, but he remained in third place, so the seat should remain difficult for the Conservatives to win - unless Chris goes into coalition with the Lib Dems.
And no mention of Jonathan Clamp who managed to drop your second place position to come in third in Lewisham East. At the same time as Lib Dems were losing seats on the local council.
Jimmy,
Last time I looked Lewisham East wasn't in either Bexley or Bromley.
What a result for Jo! He achieved the biggest swing in London - 12.2% and gained a huge majority of 17,200 - making it one of the safest Conservative seats in the country. He really deserves it and well done to all the other new Tory MPs too.
Thanks for your help James

Congratulations to the people of Beckenham who once again have an MP who can ejaculate!
Shame he can't keep his mouth zipped.
