Up all night at the count in Llandudno, when Clwyd West’s Conservative candidate, Darren Millar, won the Assembly seat with a comfortable majority of 1,596 over Labour.
Darren fought an excellent, positive campaign, focusing on the issues that matter to the people of this constituency, including hospitals, schools and police funding. The Labour campaign, by contrast, was notable for its vitriolic and sustained personal attacks on our man. It was a disgraceful campaign, the worst I have known in many years as a political activist. I hope never to experience its like again.
Fortunately, the voters of Clwyd West were clearly turned off by Labour’s tactics and decisively rejected their candidate.
I look forward to working closely with Darren for the benefit of all the people of this constituency.

Blogging at 8.47 am after being up all night. Don't you guys ever sleep? No wonder the Dracula rumours abound!
The Conservatives have made so much headway in Clwyd West over the past 2/3 years and this is even more great news. I'm sure we'll be able to increase your majority at the next general election too, David. Well done to all of you.
Thanks, Gareth. We have a super, hardworking team. New recruits always welcome!
I think all the ground work done by you and your team over the last 4 years or so helped no end!
You the leader of the Westminster 3 from the class of 2005!!
Keep up the good work.
Well done those men!!
