'People are just so fed up': Tamworth and Mid Bedfordshire voters on a mood for change

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

67% : It just feels like everything is a mess - ever since Brexit, it seems like one mess after another.
57% : On the streets of Labour's new constituencies, there was anti-Tory feeling - but also much apathyIt was a stunning set of victories - and among the most damaging byelection nights any government has suffered in living memory, according to the celebrated psephologist John Curtice.
46% : While he acknowledged there was a difference between winning a byelection, where turnouts are usually lower and voters sometimes choose to punish the ruling party, he said the Conservatives' local record in government meant the opposition were now well placed.
28% : Apathy, too, in Tamworth, where some voters said on Friday that any party would be equally bad in government.
