So the BNP took their vote share from the Greens?

Eh?

If the Conservatives got 100% of the vote last time, presumably there was no 
election and only one candidate?

I doubt if it was a straight swap somehow :)
In 2006 there were only 2 Lib Dem candidates and 1 Green candidate, so
a lot of people would have voted for both in 2006 and then had to
split in 2009.

Really?

I'd have thought that they both have a similar tale to tell: "Fings ain't 
what they used ter be".
