Andy Burnham has won the Makerfield by-election with 24,927 votes, a 9,231 majority over Reform UK's Robert Kenyon, while Restore Britain got 3,111 (6.8%).
What does this mean for Labour, Reform UK, Restore Britain, and the Tories (who lost badly here but did well in Aberdeen)? I break it all down here (including why I was sadly right about it all!).
