BY-ELECTION SPECIAL: Maker-or-Breakerfield

6/19/202653 min

It's the middle of the night and the Makerfield result has just been declared... what next?

Alex and Kenny prop their eyes open with matchsticks to take stock of a result that has huge implications for this country's political future. Well, probably.

There are by-elections in Scotland too – Aberdeen South, plus the Arbroath and Broughty Ferry seats, are both up for grabs following the election of local SNP MPs Stephen Flynn and Stephen Gethins to Holyrood last month.

All that and it's not even breakfast time yet...
