    It seems the Midlands is the really big Labour story this election. The big economic winner in the mid 2010s, probably the biggest loser of all the regions since Brexit and Covid.

    The midlands is nearly always the bellweather, very sensitive to price changes would be how I would sum the region up. It will be mortgages again, its much more affordable than the SE, so I guess many more people own homes, but interests rates, energy prices, etc.

    On both a Con Gain in Leicester East and an IDS hold.

    They were great tips.

    Harrow East must be a Tory hold
    IDS won because Shaheen was as popular as the official Labour candidate, that’s all. Doesn’t say anything about Harrow
    I'm talking about Leicester east. Tories must be holding on to a chunk of the Hindu vote and labour losing Muslims
    Thats part of it, but Vaz also took off Labour, and Labour also had a Hindu candidate.

    The Labour party in Leicester has been in a real mess in recent years, with the imposition of Webbe and attempted defenestration of Mayor Soulsby. Its all rather opaque.
