A half and half per-Germany of course is the best of both.

There are far too many safe constituencies where holding an election is basically a waste of money - this one's been Labour since 1923, the lowest share of the vote they've had in all that time being 47.3% with the current incumbent polling 48.2%, 66.9%, 60% and 49.3%.
