Super Thursday: State of Play at 0200 UK

This is definitely turning into a mixed bag of results.

Labour aren't doing as badly as they feared, they have held many opposition targets, including some SNP targets in Scotland, so they should be relieved, so far.

Conservatives are improving, but perhaps not as much as they would have liked. The big swing of Plymouth City Council from a 1 seat Labour majority to a 5 seat Conservative majority is a definite highpoint for them, though.

Liberal Democrats are being attacked on both fronts and are just abouot holding their own, to maybe a slight improvement. They may have been expecting to do better.

So far, the big losers seem to be Independent politicians and the SNP, who have seen improvement in their votes, but hasn't really translated into the seats they've been looking for, yet.
