I strongly suspect that you are one of those people in Labour and the Lib Dems that prefer to lose so that you can be high minded and shout from the roof tops about the wicked Tories whilst munching on sundried tomatoes and mueslie.
Wes Streeting 2017 votes : 30,589 vote share:57.8% Net percentage change in seats +13.9 swing
Compare that to the 2015 votes of 21,463 and you are looking at the undeniable Jeremy Corbyn effect NOT a Wes Streeting effect.
As for the sundried tomatoes and mueslie [sic] slur (I presume) all I can say is I have principles, I also believe that politicians should have principles - that's absolutely essential in the cynical political world. Wes Streeting may well have principles, however, from what I know of him, he and I do not share the same principles and I'd be happier, if I was in the constituency, to have a representative of Labour who I believed in and could trust.
