A by-election in Great Grimsby. I wonder if Labour will still pick Austin Mitchell? It was quite a local shock that they picked a Yorkie as their candidate, many predicted that he therefore had no chance despite being well known as a presenter of Calendar (Yorkshire Televisions Evening News Programme-it was still a bone of contention then that Yorkshire was the local ITV station. Although not as well known as the Yorkshire/Lancashire rivalry the Lincolnshire/Yorkshire rivalry (or more accurately the Grimsby/Hull rivalry) was every bit as intense). He did prove them somewhat wrong OTL.
EDIT:It is difficult to say which part of Humberside detested it most, the old East Riding or the old Lindsey. (Well the bits of them that were forced together.)
