Previously Brigg and Scunthorpe, this Humberside seat was traditionally Labour for years - from 1935 to 1979 it stayed in their hands - until the arrival of Mrs Thatcher. Even so, the Tory majority of 1979 was only 486 votes. The Tories won again in Labour's disastrous year of 1983, but Labour regained the seat in 1987. It is now firmly back in their hands. Scunthorpe is naturally Labour - this industrial town was created by the steel industry - and Elliot Morley, who retook it for them in 1987, should have nothing to fear.
