You can read the composition of Jed's council here.

As you'll see, he's got his work cut out for him as even with three seats lost the Tories still control the council. They've got 35 seats, the LibDems have 18 seats and Jed is one of 6 independents. The Labour Party in East Devon are like the Tories in Scotland, having lost their one seat last night.

Dug has posted a message from Jed about it. B-)
