Tories could be on brink of historic by-election win in Hartlepool, new survey suggests Nicholas Cecil
Sir Keir Starmer admitted today it would be “tough” for Labour to win the Hartlepool by-election as a new survey put the Conservatives 17 points ahead.
The Labour leader stressed that his party had to “earn” every vote and that many voters in the North East constituency were focused on “jobs, jobs, jobs,” with a local power plant set to close and steel jobs also under threat.
With the threat of a historic defeat on Thursday in Hartlepool, a seat Labour has held for 47 years since its creation, Sir Keir told LBC Radio: “It was always going to be tough.”
Sir Keir has thrown his support behind Labour candidate Paul Williams, an NHS doctor, former Stockton South MP and excellent candidate , according to the Labour leader.
Mr Williams faces Jill Mortimer, a councillor and farmer campaigning to be the first Conservative MP for Hartlepool since the seat was created in 1974.
ITV News heard various voting intentions from the people of Hartlepool, including a nurse who said she plans to vote Conservative.
