| This seat contains Manchester's plushest suburbs (and there is some real money in Manchester). Labour did unexpectedly well in last year's elections for the local Trafford Borough Council (once a lone Tory metropolitan council) but they did so largely by leaving this end of the borough well alone. Labour are defending loads of marginals in the Greater Manchester area (both seats in Bury, two of the three in Bolton, Oldham East, Rochdale etc.) and won't have the time or the money to mount a campaign here. Graham Brady, one of the Tories' youngest MPs, has embarked on a lengthy parliamentary career. |

| I hear Labour is doing rather better than expected here in one of only two Tory seats in Greater Manchester. Brady has failed to make enough impression and Jane Baugh is a good candidate - so I would have thought this might be rather closer than suggested . . . |
