You have a blue sleeved brown which is Live at the ceiling, so perhaps the same at the switch, but not sleeved?
Two gang light switch - what am I doing wrong?

Yes, I have a volt stick, but have today bought a multimeter as well
The way the switch was wired, only the light in the room worked. The light in the loft didn't work.
As per the photos - there isn't a blue sleeved brown wire at either the ceiling or the switch. The electrician wasn't particularly keen on marking wiring unfortunately (even though I asked him several times).
Is it 2 lights this switch should turn on and off?
Turn all the power off and test continuity between each brown and blue and brown and blue marked brown in the light.
