Labour has won an easy victory in the Stretford and Urmston by-election in a boost for Keir Starmer.
Andrew Western, the Labour leader of Trafford Council, was the winner with a majority of 9,906 - and a swing from the Tories of 10.5%.
It is another blow to Rishi Sunak, who suffered a humiliating defeat at a City of Chester by-election when Labour increased its majority by more than 4,000 votes only two weeks ago.
