| The Lib Dems got pretty close to winning once true-blue Tory in 1997 and they will be working flat-out to persuade enough Labour voters to switch this time to give the Tories a run for their money. It isn't going to be easy for either side but the Lib Dems' local strength in the North West should give them at least a fighting chance of bringing this one to the wire. |

| I'm the Labour Candidate for Cheadle - we are getting a very positive response and I simply do not believe our vote will collapse. If anything we expect to INCREASE our share - so the likelihood of a Lib Dem win is low unless they can get some votes off the Tories. |

| I agree that the Liberal Democrats face an uphill battle to retain votes here in Gatley (Cheadle). There have been a number of local issues which the Lib Dems have given no support (mobile phone masts, cinema closure). People feel let down and are turning to the Labour Candidate Haward Dawber |

| Despite token advances last time out, forget Labour. Electors made their advance tactical decision in 1997, and that is to put the uncompromising onus on Lib Dem a la Hazel Grove/Sheffield Hallam. Right now, as a target, it's a Mancunian Orpington. Period. |

| I can understand the Labour candidate whistling to keep his spirits up, but I'll bet him £100 for charity that his share of the vote falls, and significantly. It's a pity this proposal is rather idle, as it's somewhat late for him to respond. But to suggest that he might win - I fear he is in fantasy land! |
