| Commons Transport Committee Chair Gwynneth Dunwoody had a few close calls here in the eighties and early nineties. Crewe is solidly Labour - it is home to the Rolls Royce car factory and to what remains of the British railway industry - but Nantwich is commuter/rural Tory territory. If the Tories looked like winning an election, and the popular Dunwoody retired, this seat might change hands. But don't expect any excitement this year. |
