MAJORITY: 1692 (3.8%)
Sitting MP: Nick de Bois (Con)
Prediction: Labour gain
This seat is more complicated than it looks. You’d think it would be a Labour banker to regain, but the local Labour Party is in dissaray after they re-selected Joan Ryan, who Nick De Bois defeated in 2010. She’s a gift to the Tories because of her record on expenses, and the circumstances surrounding her selection whiff to say the least. There are also demographic changes afoot in this seat which benefit the Conservatives. However, I’m going with Labour in my prediction as I think the odds still go marginally in their favour.
