The Labour party narrowly retained their seat in Peterborough
Labour wins the Peterborough by-election, beating the Brexit party by 683 votes. The result averts a crisis for Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, but the strong second place result for Nigel Farage's party poses problems for both major parties. The Lib Dems also increase their vote as Conservatives and Labour see their share of the vote tumble. Britain's Brexit crisis is set to continue as voters become ever more split on the issue.
