WHAT NOW, MR HEATH?

The video reports on a significant by-election in Hull North, marking the first major political contest since Edward Heath became the Tory leader. Labour candidate Kevin McNamara achieved a surprising victory with an increased majority, despite opposition from radical candidate Richard Gott. McNamara's success was partly due to capturing Liberal votes from Laurie Millward and outpolling Conservative Timothy Jessel.
