You can if your not careful get carried away with the result.
firstly it was called deliberatly in the hope of a small turn out, and hope the Tories turn out, thankfully they didnt.
secondly
the lib dems are the most unpopular party at the moment, and this blip obviously hit them hard, but they also did no campaigning, didnt even put forward a Dover
candidate, and not one leaflet
thirdly
the lib dems have only ever been a protest party, and votes go to fro at elections
although even i have to admit i don't think they will recover from the latest fiasco's
fourthly
the lib dems in local elections has never been strong(out of 45 cllrs they have 2!!!)
thats because in the past they concentrated on communities but they no longer do.
and the have gone from there highest number of cllrs(10) to today(2) and just about cling onto them two.
fifthly
the UKIP party has still to convince the electorate it has policies on local issues that are sustainable, and are not just an anti europe party
sixthly
the UKIP vote coud have been a protest vote we can only look to MAY to see if this is the case.
seventh
i dont think this resut will be repeated, or get any better
and wont gain any seats in Dover District
