Labour will need to overturn a Tory majority of nearly 20,000 to win - housing campaigners fear failure could see the party retreat from its policy

'After fleeing Gaza City, we're living in a flat with 50 people and no water or electricity'Labour will need to overturn a Tory majority of nearly 20,000 to win – housing campaigners fear failure could see the party retreat from its policy

“But people move to Tamworth to live in the new builds. So there’s people that want them, clearly. It’s definitely a hot-button issue here.” The Conservatives have made the fact that Ms Edwards is not from the constituency another key attack line. She is originally from Moseley, a Birmingham suburb 25 miles away. However, she now lives and pays council tax in Tamworth.

The staffer noted that the Conservatives’ original candidate for the general election was a sitting MP in another seat, who was not himself from Tamworth. “There will be a fair number of seats where will not be helpful ,” he toldHousing campaigner Jonn Elledge has for years pushed for Labour to adopt policies building on some parts of the green belt and liberalise planning laws. He admits to some nervousness around the policy if Labour does not win Tamworth, given that Sir Keir largely disowned Sadiq Khan’s Ulez anti-pollution traffic scheme, after the party failed to take Uxbridge and South Ruislip.

However, even if there is local concern about Labour housebuilding, Tory candidate Mr Cooper also has to override national disillusion with Conservative governments, of which the very existence of the Tamworth by-election is a ready reminder.
