SORRY to disappoint all three candidates, but the report of the results in the recent Bolton by-election, while appearing to be factually correct, did not show the full picture.
The actual results were Labour eight per cent, Lib-Democrat seven per cent, Conservative 6.5 per cent, Apathy 78.5 per cent. The parties might well be concerned!
