The party in power should not be surprised or down hearted if they lose a by-election. We have had 12 good years of Tory government, it would be more surprising if they did not lose the occasional by-election.
Don't forget in 2019 the Tories were up against Jeremy Corbyn, a fearsome opponent. At the next general election things will be back to what used to pass for normality.
