and there was I thinking that the south west is, on the whole, a low pay/high cost housing part of the country.
Sod: So, if the people this time around give, say, the Labour party more seats than than the Tories and the Lib Dems have enough seats to form a government with Labour would a Lab/Lib coalition be on the cards as far as the Liberal Democrats are concerned? ...
The electorate does not have the option of choosing a coalition. Do you want this type of coalition or that type of coalition is not on the ballot paper. It all depends on how things pan out. Once the number of seats per party is known I doubt very much that we, the people, will have much say as to which parties form a coalition and, more to the point, which policies they trade off with each ...

But I can't find anything from the town council. Does anyone ...
In this constituency, like quite a few others in the south west, it is, if we are honest, a two horse race between the Tories and the Lib Dems. However, for the Lib Dems to have any chance of winning those seats they need those who are anti-Tory to vote Lib Dem irrespective of those voters true political allegiance. In other words non tories need to vote tactically (ie Lib Dem) to stop the ...
