Sorry I wasn't following that by-election, did Labour stand aside? But they still fielded a candidate?

No, Labour don't stand aside for other parties. We didn't under Corbyn and we're not doing it under Starmer. In one way I understand it - as the largest party across the UK we have the most to lose - but I also wish we'd be a bit more flexible sometimes. I'm no LDs fan but I'd much rather see them win than the Tories.

I think we will seek more tactical voting in the UK. There was evidence of it in the Scottish election against the SNP (I'm now a Labour voter), and this by-election shows how effective it can be in FTP.
