Labour has held Glenrothes, increasing our share of the vote from the 2005 General Election and increasing our vote from 2005.
The Tory party was reduced to a miserable 4% share of the vote.
As Winston Churchill might have said, "We may allow ourselves a short period of celebration".
Even during the Summer, generally the public were not blaming the Gov't for the economic problems. Now there is a recognition of the challenges Britain faces and of Gordon Brown's success in leading the global efforts to avoid a crash of the banks.
But we know there is still a lot to do - most particularly, to help people through the downturn and to try to mitigate the downturn.
