SPECIAL ELECTION EDITION OUT EARLY

Get to the shops now and get your early-morning Chronicle for unrivalled coverage of Labour's Oldham East and Saddleworth by-election victory - or register to read the eChron version on the home page now.

The special edition hit the shops first thing this morning as our small but dedicated team of journalists worked through the night to bring you all the news, views and reaction to Debbie Abrahams' 3,000+ victory that had Lib-Dem Elwyn Watkins in second place and Kashif Ali trailing in third with a much reduced return.

UKIP's Paul Nuttall claimed the battle for fourth place ahead of the BNP's Derek Adams, whose vote fell and lost his deposit.
