Here are the results of the by-election in Headington Ward following the resignation of LibDem Councillor Ruth Wilkinson.

Anyone anticipating a surprise will be disappointed. Although turnout was  a little lower than in May (36.6% compared with 42.4%) the parties’ shares of the vote were almost identical, although the Conservative’s Georgina Gibbs did manage to take a 2% share off the Green’s non-campaigning paper candidate Ray Hitchins. A strong case of déja vu!
