The last one grabbed me by the throat as I originate from Bury St Edmunds, and it seems a typical example of a town that benefitted enormously from EU trade etc and where they all hate the French, despite being "twinned" with Compiègne, where the armistice was signed at the end of World War I. In 2019 there was a pact between the Greens and the Lib Dems whereby the Lib Dem candidate stood down in this constituency in favour of the Green Party. They still came 3rd behind Labour though.
