Wakefield and Tiverton and Honiton by-election results - live: Tories lose both seats as Oliver Dowden resigns
Tory party chairman Oliver Dowden has resgined after the Conservatives lost two by-elections
Boris Johnson’s leadership of the Tory party suffered a double blow as the Conservatives lost in two crunch by-elections.
The Liberal Democrats overturned a 24,000 Tory majority to win in Tiverton and Honiton, while Labour reclaimed the seat in Wakefield.
A dramatic swing of almost 30% from the Tories to the Liberal Democrats saw Richard Foord secure a majority of 6,144.
In Wakefield, Simon Lightwood was elected with a majority of 4,925 on a swing of 12.7% from the Tories to Labour.
The contests, which were triggered by the resignation of disgraced Tory members, offered voters the chance to give their verdict on the Prime Minister just weeks after 41% of his own MPs cast their ballots against him in a confidence vote.
