Labour wins three by-elections on a night that saw a surge in support for UKIP and dismal results for the Tories and Lib Dems.
The Conservatives finished fifth behind not only UKIP but also the British National Party and Respect, while Tory candidate Simon Wilson only held onto his deposit by a whisker.
Labour candidate Sarah Champion has won the Rotherham by-election with a majority of more than 5,000 votes over second-place UKIP.r
