| I live in this constituency. The majority for Labour last time was large, and I can't see that anything has changed to such an extent that such a large majority could be wiped out. The only question is the size of the turnout, and the possibility that SNP voters might be more motivated to vote than Labour voters. While I would expect this to be the case, I still don't see that the effect would be enough to wipe out the Labour majority. Small datum: I myself voted Labour last time, but this time I probably will vote LibDem or SNP. |
