Applying the shift in the polls, you get CON 35.6% LAB 34.5%. Add tactical voting, and Labour should hoover up Green and Lib Dem votes here, and win a by-election.

Labour had a campaign launch yesterday: Although in practice most of the surrounding CLPs have been working the constituency for a couple of weeks now. |

I'm tempted to opportunistically stand for Labour here - this s a seat that could benefit from an MP with my Oxford Union debating skills.

I’m sure this is a truly excellent idea but joining the Labour Party and committing to support Labour candidates in all elections would be a most useful initial step to this highly likely end. |
