Yep, But it was a real shame that Karen lost to that James Whatsisname.

I make this result an 8% swing to Labour from LibDems.
Can any other number crunchers confirm?
In any case, welcome back Zena Brabazone, after being so rudely interrupted in 2014!

Here are the 2014 results.

ADAMOU Gina Labour Party 1,683 Yes
ALEXANDER Karen Jane Liberal Democrats 1,182
BURLAND Patrick Trade Unionists and Socialists Against Cuts 165
CUTHBERT Matthew James Green Party 657
IBRAHIM Emine Labour Party 1,372 Yes
KAPLAN David Trade Unionists and Socialists Against Cuts 219
KAUR Asha Liberal Democrats 878
PATEL Kan Trade Unionists and Socialists Against Cuts 132
RIVERS Sean Conservative Party 219
RIVLIN Lydia Conservative Party 212
ROSSINI Massimo Conservative Party 200
RYAN James Andrew Labour Party 1,395 Yes
SCHMITZ David Reuben Liberal Democrats 1,139
SMITH Tristan James Law Green Party 572
SMITH-JEFFERYS Kerry Frances Green Party 558
Percentage turnout: 40.52%

I guess it's fair to calculate any swing by reference to the 2014 vote for Ryan. Based on just the votes of two candidates in each year there was a 4% swing. I'm not sure how meaningful any swing calculation is comparing a by-election to a full election with about 50% of the turnout.

Seeing as I'm able to talk to everyone out there in Harringay Land. Some 6 to 8 months I was in touch briefly with one of H O members. Her Maiden Name back in 1950, was Pat Blight. For some unknown reason, Pat cut our contact short, if I made her feel uncomfortable, for any reason, I'm sorry. I only wanted to remember some of the old days during World War 2, which we both shared, good and bad. So if you are out there Pat, any chance we can make contact again ????? No attachment wanted, just kick over old times. OK ????? Eddie
