In Britain, the Conservative Party led by Prime Minister Boris Johnson has to face defeat in a two-seat by-election.
The Liberal Democrats won the South West constituencies of Tiverton and Honiton, while the Wakefield constituency in northern England went to the main opposition Labor Party.
These results are a new setback for Johnson, who is already facing a crisis over the 'Partygate' cases.
The Wakefield, Tiverton, and Honiton areas were elected to replace Conservative Party MPs who had resigned on various charges. One of these MPs was convicted of sexual harassment while the other was found watching pornography in the chamber of the House of Commons. However, the MP tried to clarify this episode by saying that he was looking for pictures of tractors on his phone.
These results will fuel panic among the troubled Conservative Party, which is already concerned that the precarious and divisive Johnson is no longer the right bet for the election.
