Elections fail to find winner

THE scene is set for a power struggle on Carlisle City Council after yesterday’s election results left no one party in overall control.

The Liberal Democrats are celebrating victory in Dalston, which they took from the Conservatives.

But no other seats changed hands as Labour defied predictions of losses by holding off the Conservative challenge in Belle Vue and Yewdale.

The results leave Labour as the largest party.

There were no elections in Allerdale, Copeland or Eden.

Nationally, it was a bad night for Labour, which lost more than 250 council seats.

Vote

Are you clear yet as to how you'll vote on May 7?

Yes. I always vote for the same party

No. All I hear is politicians bad-mouthing each other - no clear policies

I won't be voting. I see little difference in any of them
