Labour's Janet Daby wins Lewisham East in by-election


Labour's Janet Daby wins Lewisham East in by-election. Labour has held Lewisham East in a by-election triggered by the resignation of former frontbencher Heidi Alexander. Lewisham councillor Janet Daby pledged to oppose a "hard Brexit" after winning with 50.2% of the vote in the Remain-voting area of south-east London.

The Liberal Democrats leapfrogged the Conservatives to take second place in a seat which voted heavily for Remain in the European Union referendum.







Ms Daby said the result showed "we will not tolerate an extreme Brexit in Lewisham East".

Explaining what she had found on the doorstep during the campaign, she told reporters: "One of the ongoing issues is to do with Brexit and people not wanting an extreme Brexit and ideally people not even wanting to leave the EU.

"I will oppose an extreme or a hard Brexit.

"I will consider people's jobs, the economy and people's rights and that will dictate to me the precedent in how I will conduct myself both within Parliament and out of Parliament."

Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn suffered a revolt in the Commons after ordering Labour MPs to abstain on the issue of Norway-style single market membership this week.

Asked how much distance there was between her and Mr Corbyn's views on Brexit, Ms Daby said: "In terms of the single market, our Labour view on this is that we would have a new single market where we have the same access that we presently do.


Leapfrog: Lib Dem Lucy Salek came in second, above the Conservatives (PA)

"For me it's about ensuring that we have as close a relationship to the EU as possible and that's what I'll be arguing for and that's what I'll be putting forward my views on.

"I voted for Jeremy Corbyn twice in the leadership election and obviously within politics not everybody will agree on everything... but we need to find a way around it that holds the Tories to account."

Ms Daby picked up 11,033 votes - a 50.2% share, down nearly 18 percentage points from Ms Alexander's vote share in 2017.

Lib Dem Lucy Salek had 5,404 votes, a 24.59% share, while the Conservative Ross Archer had 3,161 votes, a 14.38% share.

The result put the Lib Dems up more than 20 percentage points, with a swing of nearly 19% from Labour to Lib Dem.
