Looking at the prediction competition thread, it would seem that most entrants would agree with you; they've been mainly for Smith, though I've seen a couple for Hunter. Though that said, a few people do predict a Labour hold. Think we can rate this one a tossup. Or is it that most entrants haven't a scoobie about the mind of the electorate of Abergele, and took notice of someone that appeared to sound like they knew what they were talking about... Does anybody on the planet have a scoobie about the mind of the electorate of Abergele?

We are people and the descriptive nouns should be regarded as gender neutral. In so far as the gender matters to some, then the Christian name will be a guide. Gender should not matter. Or indeed the first name, for those of us who were never baptised. *ahem*

Will the two Welsh seats be the first to declare tonight, it can't surely take more than an hour to count 2,000 votes?

I'm surprised that Andrew didn't mention that Clarence contains the HQ of CAMRA - something that is likely to be of interest to many here

I see one error, when he says Middlesbrough Central is an enlarged Middlehaven. It's more of a merger of former Middlehaven and University wards.

I am not a fluent Welsh speaker...I am OK with the easier mutations (Bach-Fach, Cymru-Gymru) but I usually miss the nasal ones out... (C-Ngh, P-Ph). I don't think they make much difference.. The nasal mutation of P is Mh, but anyway
