| I don't think he is a particularly good MP and I would love to see Moira Toye (Lib Dem ) win, but I think Ian Gibson has done a very good job of courting the press in recent months. Given that Labour even won the seat at the Euros, I would ignore the local election results and say Gibson will win it on a personal vote. Also, the Tory has made the news recently for apparently breaking planning rules, so she is hardly likely to endoear herself to the electorate. |
