Well, Keith, of course all Labour supporters would like it to have been better, and one would have to be blinkered not to recognise more needs to be done. But it is worth knowing Conservatives lost twice as many seats as Labour and that if you look at the first set of council elections after Blair and Cameron became leader, Corbyn has done better than either.

As always there are many ways to look at the set of results, but claims it was a disaster are a deliberate careful selection of viewpoint on someone's part.
