LABOUR GAIN WEST OF ENGLAND

Labour's victorious Dan Norris (left) and Samuel Williams of the Tories

A shock result has been declared for the West of England mayor.  The Conservatives were expected to hold here, but Labour have taken the post after a run-off.  The incumbent mayor, Tim Bowles, retired ahead of the election.

UKIP did not contest this time round, nor did any independents.
