Doubtful, I think we just haven't done well in this ward recently. I was going to say ever, but going back to about 2008 we did a lot better, albeit not coming close to winning. It's been a Labour stronghold for a long time. |

The one exception seems to be Westbrook - with a popular councillor holding a tranche of relatively plush suburbs. Also, it'd be remiss of me not to point out that we're still hanging on in the depths of Lymm. |
