Bookies' favourite

On 13 December 2021, The Guardian reported:

Bookmakers have made the Liberal Democrats the favourites to win this week’s North Shropshire by-election, odds that if reflected in Thursday’s vote would deliver a significant fresh blow to Boris Johnson’s authority.

LibDem campaigners stress that the result is hard to predict, given variables such as turnout and the number of Labour and Green supporters who decide to vote tactically.

But the party says it is “neck and neck” in the usually ultra-safe Conservative seat, which was held by Owen Paterson in the 2019 election with a near-23,000 majority and has been Tory for all but two of the last 190 years.

Daisy Cooper, the Lib Dems’ deputy leader, who spent the weekend campaigning in North Shropshire, said support for the Conservatives there “has collapsed”.

She said: “We are now neck and neck with the Conservatives and our campaigners are flooding into the constituency from across the country.

“As we enter the final few days of the campaign, the crucial question is: will enough Labour and Green voters vote tactically for the Lib Dems? If they do, this could help deliver a knockout blow to Boris Johnson.”[2]
