Watford is not normally a Conservative voting area.

which case, this has a small chance of going forward. That said I am
not especially optimistic.


After years of that happening under New Labour, do we still believe it to
be the case under an alternative government? The PTE areas did very well
for themselves in the '80s and early '90s with new stations,
electrification, more services and not to mention LRT projects in Greater
Manchester, Sheffield, West Midlands and the Airport extension to the
Tyne/Wear Metro, all initiated under the Conservatives despite the fact
that the Metropolitan Counties were mostly controlled by Labour.
