| Hodge Hill is an industrial seat in east Birmingham and is a working class area. It is predominantly white and has a high proportion of council tenants. Labour lost it in 1977 in a by-election (it was then called Stechford) but won it back in 1979 and never lost it in the 1980s. Expect a low turnout and a fall in the Labour vote, but don't expect anything other than another term for Terry Davis, the Labour MP since 1979. |
