Two by-election wins for UKIP UKIP Telford & Wrekin are celebrating two fantastic election results tonight after winning both the Madeley Town Council and Stirchley & Brookside Parish Council by-elections. Ryan Laing beat the Conservative candidate who stood as an independent, Grant Foxon, by 331 votes to 206 in Woodside. We believe that the 61.4% vote share may be the new record percentage win in a by-election for UKIP anywhere in the country. Brookside candidate, Lynda Hogger, also beat Labour borough councillor Nathan England by 442 votes to 322. The 57.85% of the vote Lynda secured is a massive achievement in itself without considering she was up against a sitting borough councillor. UKIP Telford & Wrekin now has 9 councillors representing Brookside, Dawley, Dothill, Ercall Magna, Kynnersley, Hollinswood, Shifnal and Woodside.
