Prime Minister Boris Johnson has vowed to “keep going” after his leadership suffered a double blow as his ruling Conservative Party lost two crunch by-elections.
In Tiverton and Honiton, where local Conservative MP Neil Parish resigned after admitting he had watched pornography on his phone in the House of Commons, the Liberal Democrats won after a swing of almost 30 percent from the Tories, overturning a 24,000 Conservative majority.
