Lib Dems are 50/1 to win here with Bet365!

I think that if the Tories did lose this seat it would probably be Labour who took it, in spite of the Lib Dems' local government strength in Aylesbury town.

I'm very confused as this is my home seat and I'm not clear on who is best placed to challenge the Conservatives here. I've not seen any election activity yet.

I know that there have been boundary changes, but Labour were quite some way ahead of Lib Dems in 2019, and I don't think there will be many seats (it seems plausible that there could even be none?) where the Lib Dems overtake Labour.

The Lib Dems have quite a bit of support in local elections but a lot of it has not transferred to parliamentary ones in the last couple of elections. It's certainly a seat on Labour's radar. Can't speak for the Lib Dems on that

Sheffield Hallam is their best bet but I don't fancy them to do it here

A decent amount of Labour support coming from the Muslim vote here may confuse matters if an independent/Workers candidate stands.

The notional 2019 result on the new boundaries is Lab 23% LD 22%.

Even taking this into account Labour needs a 14.5% swing according to Rallings & Thrasher's notionals. Even in the current circumstances and the seat shrinking as a result of boundary changes this is a tall order.

a 14.5% swing is equivalent on UNS to a Labour lead nationally of 17.5%. That is quite a bit less than the current average, and one would certainly expect the swing to be bigger in Tory seats, especially outside London & Scotland. It's a tall order, but not so tall it's above the clouds as it were.

On paper it‘s Labour, just, as the challengers. In practice it’s surrounded by better Lib Dem prospects so won’t get much attention.
Unlikely either Lab or LD vote can be squeezed enough here and Rob Butler seems to have a good network - I‘d make him favourite to hang on.

So Ben Walker on his Youtube Live broadcast last night still has Aylesbury going to the Lib Dems but with only 7% between the 4 main parties. Clearly this is seat is quite unpredictable but the Lib Dems are still 50/1 on Bet365 so I've stuck a fiver on them winning.
