A by-election was held in the UK parliament constituency of Bromley and Chislehurst in London following the death of Conservative Member of Parliament Eric Forth on 17 May 2006. The writ for the electing of a new member was issued on 6 June for a polling day of 29 June 2006 the same day as the Blaenau Gwent by-elections. The by-election was an astonishing rebuff to both the governing and main opposition parties.
