I'm noticing that Labour are on sticking to safe seats for their campaigning - I guess it is so they have a sympathetic crowd and the world looks rosy.

Obviously Clegg has far more non-LibDem seats to choose from, but the Tories seem to be focusing on the seats likely to swing and even some seats that have been historically hard core Labour.

For me it shows that Labour are running very scared, and quite rightly so.

Surely it is just good sense to target the marginal seats?

What will be interesting is how many "safe" seats Labour loses.

At a guess would say, they don't want to get egged.

Anyway, what's with the safe seats? Is it part of the new Health & Safety regs?
