In this part of Yorkshire people have often looked at Normanton, Pontefract and Castleford as really solid Labour heartland. As a result you see several of the Labour Party's key players taking shelter in "safe Labour Seats" in South and West Yorkshire.
Well times are changing. Whilst it is not uncommon to meet people whose great grandparents voted Labour, grandparents and parents too because its the party of the..... whatever actually a number of people are expressing concerns about how Labour has lost touch. How Labour politicians have become rich as their supporters have struggled.
A number have talked about Ed Millibands socialist party in government but managed by Nicola Sturgeon's SNP and the impact of their spend spend spend plans.
More questioning people have started to look at other possibilities or choices. The outcome for me has been the welcome sound of people on the doorstep talking about their grandparents voting habits but finish by saying they intend to vote for me on Thursday. Or that they already have voted for me by post. Welcome and encouraging feedback, We will see how that works through at the count on Friday.
If you are one of those who are yet to decide or if you always have voted Labour. Take a day off on Thursday and vote Geoff Walsh for Pontefract South in the local elections and Beth Prescott for Westminster in the General Election.
If you are reading this in Yorkshire or other English Constituencies and would like the benefit of a Conservative Government on Friday morning please make sure you exercise your vote and Vote Conservative.
