Re: Corbyn's kerfuffle
Tristram Hunt was the poster child for central office parachuting a candidate in to a party safe seat. UKIP came second to him last time, but he still had a majority of 5,000.
It'll be interesting to see how Labour play it. Do they get someone local to try and steal votes back from UKIP? Or do they parachute someone else from central office to stand on Corbyn's record as leader?
