Labour has nothing to be happy about in Runcorn and Helsby
Summary
Nutrition label
75% Informative
Labour is hoping Tory votes will shift leftward to keep Reform at bay.
Reform is banking on voters with an unreliable history of voting.
But in a high risk game of constituency contest, it’s a reliance on the unreliable.
Turn them out, and they’ve cinched the seat, and Labour hangs on.
