The Conservative candidate won a historic victory in the northeastern English port city of Hartlepool, defeating the Labour candidate by 6,940 votes to take a vote that Labour has held since the 1970s.
Conservative candidate Jill Mortimer took 15,529 votes, well ahead of her Labour opponent Paul Williams’ 8,589, to take the Hartlepool by-election parliamentary seat. The Conservative Party’s victory in Hartlepool symbolizes the continuation of Prime Minister Johnson’s reshaping of the British political landscape, and reflects the changing color of the deep red constituencies that traditionally support the Labour Party. Williams left the polling station by the back door after his defeat, refusing to comment or respond to reporters’ questions.
Labour Party leader Shi Ji Xian recently revealed that he would be responsible for the loss of the election results, it is believed that the loss of Hartlepool will intensify the pressure on Shi Ji Xian from the far-left forces within the Labour Party. Some Labor Party sources said that some Labor Party members believe that the party’s reform is not complete, can not please the voters, so the defeat is to blame.
