This is the least favourable to Labour of the three constituencies in Stoke, Staffordshire's industrial centre. But that isn't saying much - just that, while Stoke North and Stoke Central returned comfortable five-figure Labour majorities in 1992, South's was a 'mere' 6,909 - hardly a marginal. Although there is genuinely more Tory support in South than in the rest of the city, the 1992 Labour candidate, George Stevenson, was fighting the seat for the first time following the retirement of respected MP Jack Ashley - a hard act to follow. Stevenson can reasonably expect to increase his lead this time.
