Welsh Assembly 2011: Lab Hold

More and more houses are being built in Connah’s Quay/Buckley and the more affluent middle-class Tory-inclined voters are moving in to them. This is why there was an 8% swing AGAINST Labour here in a traditional safe seat. Without these new housing estates this would still be a safe Labour seat but it can no longer be viewed as such and even though it should remain red in the 2015 General Election a big battle is on our hands to keep it so.

It’s all about ‘Demography, demography, demography’ and this has changed a lot in this area over the past few years. I used to work in the same company as Carl Sargeant in Mostyn and I wish him well.

Labour’s natural demographic advantage in North East Wales is shrinking, but probably not sufficiently to lose in the National Assembly..a great deal depends on the ability of the Government to blame the extent of any cuts on the previous administration.

A bad result for Labour – would agree though Labour should hold on in 2011 here

You couldn’t get a harder working AM than Carl Sargeant so this must be a LABOUR HOLD in Assembly elections.
Bad news Alyn & Deeside is now in the top 60 Tory target seats.

In the assembly elections next year this will be a Labour hold.

Have Plaid done enough canvassing here to have a decent view of the general situation?
