Commenting on the result, Liberal Democrat Party President, Ros Scott said:

?This is a fantastic result and is testament to the hard work and dedication of our Liberal Democrat councillors in Haverstock.

?Labour was crowing that it would mop up votes from Lib Dem supporters who are supposedly upset about the Coalition Government. This result, in the Milibands? old backyard in the heart of Labour territory, shows that was just arrogant nonsense.?
