Didn't The Tories Do Well?

No, they did not. Winning back Dover, Rugby, Windsor and Maidenhead, South Norfolk, Chester, and the East Riding only causes people to exclaim, "You mean that there was ever not a Tory-controlled council in Dover, Rugby, Windsor and Maidenhead, South Norfolk, Chester, or the East Riding!" And note how their "Northern Revival" extends no further north than borderlands such as Cheshire and East Yorkshire.

Not that any of this will bother either the Cameron Broadcasting Corporation or those who still use the Tories as a bogeyman with which to frighten Labour MPs, Labour activists (such as there still are) or traditional Labour supporters into line. When is someone going to ask, "So what if the Tories got back in? What would they actually do that was any different?" Answer would come there none.
