It would appear Clarence Mitchell has lost to Caroline Lucas in Brighton and Esther McVey to Labour in the Wirral.

Close run thing with McVey.
 MIichell never had a chance anyway, though I suppose he might get a better constituency next time if he perseveres

The Brighton result was pretty much as 2010. Esther McVey losing her seat surprised me as I thought she was not so much of a dodo as some politicians. Was her successor as good looking?!

Clarence Mitchell - perhaps best known as the media spokesman for the parents of Madeleine McCann - lost his bid last night to morph into a Conservative Party MP.

Mitchell, who used to be a PR advisor to the Labour Party, was pushed into third place behind the UK’s only Green Party MP Caroline Lucas - who held comfortably on to the Brighton Pavilion seat, even increasing her majority - and Labour’s Purna Sen.

With a total of 12,448 votes, Mitchell nonetheless managed to scoop 23% of the vote on a pledge to “work tirelessly to make Brighton a better place”.

Intriguingly, in his “About Clarence” bio, as well as the section entitled “More About Me”, Mitchell failed to make any mention at all about the years he has spent as a spokesman for the McCann family.

He did however cite various media roles and that as a trustee of Swanswell, the national charity that helps tackle problem alcohol and drug abuse, he brought “special insight and awareness” to some of Brighton’s “most important social issues”.

The activity in the courtroom largely did. Not many facts were proved. But the talk in the courtroom wasn't about the 'responsibilities of public officials' issue, and nobody (including you guys) thought damages would be determined by that.
