| Labour coasted to an easy victory last time in the traditionally ultra-marginal Bury South seat last time, and I expect them to do the same again on Thursday. Labour carried Bury South in the Euro elections (the results of which nationwide were equivalent to a Tory parliamentary majority of 55) and have a strong locally-rooted incumbent in former borough councillor Ivan Lewis. |
