I spent yesterday at the Test Match at Old Trafford. It was a very pleasant and highly enjoyable way to spend a bank holiday Sunday, especially as England somehow managed to dig themselves out of the hole they’d burrowed for themselves in the morning session!
I thought I’d share a final few thoughts about Crewe & Nantwich.
I spent a lot of time across the constituency during the election period, and by the end it was quite clear to me that in many ways that part of south Cheshire is quite a good microcosm of the country as a whole. There’s green fields and pleasant villages (like Shevington, Willaston and Wybunbury), a market town (Nantwich) and of course there is Crewe itself, a much more urban historically working-class town built around local manufacturing industry.
The key outcome of course is that all those three sections of Crewe & Nantwich turned out to vote for Edward Timpson and the Conservative Party on Thursday. Labour were decisively rejected across all sections of the community - and that bodes extremely well for Conservative prospects across the country, including here in Salford.
