| Labour benefited from a drop in Conservatives support and from Liberal Democrats voting strategically. Labour will hold this seat, though some support will return to the Tories and Liberals. |

| A pleasantly unlikely sort of Labour pickup in '97--and they picked up from somebody who's now running (elsewhere) under the UKIP banner. If any ebbing support's going to Tories, then this should be counted vulnerable. Unlikely as it may seem (and it may make a difference in who's elected), the Green Party has legs here. If anyone's up to making a prediction of a Green victory in Stroud, go ahead. I'm abstaining. |
