| Sutton Coldfield is one of the wealthiest seats in Britain and for the last 25 or so years it has been the home of Sir Norman Fowler - he is stepping down this time but that will not affect the result. The new incumbent will be in Parliament for as long as he or she wishes - this seat is bomb-proof for the Tories. |

| If Sutton Coldfield were in the environs of Manchester or Sheffield, it'd have morphed into a Tory-Lib Dem marginal by now. This is neither Manchester nor Sheffield, and LD was behind Labour in '97. |
