  1. Tired but sense of humour still intact

    They're having fun in Westmorland and Lonsdale despite (or perhaps because of) the lateness of the hour.

    Mind, there's nothing like a human fishfinger at an election count to liven the mood.

    And clearly 309 people thought Mr Fishfinger was the man to lead the constituency into the next five years.

  6. Lib Dems leader hangs on - just

    Francesca Williams
    BBC News

    There was a recount and, for a moment, it looked like the Liberal Democrat leader might just lose his seat.

    But Tim Farron has scraped in, though with a reduced share of the vote - only 777 ahead of Conservative James Airey.

    Still, a win's a win and he can take further reassurance from the fact that his majority is still well ahead of fellow candidate Mr Fishfinger's 309 votes.
