Cambridge looks like an easy Labour hold and, having won it back in 1992, it will almost certainly stay Labour. But will the Tories retain their second position or will it become part of a number of three-way seats. In local elections, the Liberal Democrats have edged ahead of Labour and the Tories have not really seen much of a revival. Although they appear to be in a slightly stronger position than the Lib Dems for the general election, could Cambridge end up going the way of Bristol West, Cardiff South and Birmingham Yardley and see the Lib Dems become the major challengers to Labour this time round. Hard to predict. |

Bear in mind the volatility of the student vote (some 20,000). Anne Campbell has a poor record amongst students after voting in favour of introducing tuition fees. Not enough to tip the scales, though; the local Conservative organisation has fallen apart, with only 1 out of the 12 council wards going Tory. An interesting fight for second place from the locally strong Lib Dems. |
