The Conservatives have taken control of Derbyshire County Council with a massive swing from Labour. The Tories won 37 (up from 18) to claim a majority and wiped out Labour's 22-seat majority from 2013, while Labour dropped to 24 (down from 43) seats.
Per BBC, 'This was Labour's last stand - its last county council to be defended in England. And its defences have proven to be weak.'
This certainly bodes very well for the Tories, especially given the collapse of the UKIP. While a high profile MP like Skinner will likely retain his seat on his own strength, it is certainly not a safe bet.

Dennis Skinner is an institution. He's not about to lose this seat even in a bad year for Labour.
