ok, one among many ..

Durham City Conservative candidate is 20 year old Nick Varley. He is the son of a single mother and his grandfather was a miner. He's lived in the city all his life and is proud of his working class roots.

Labour and LibDem candidates are in their 50s while the UKIP candidate is 61, so will Nick Varley win the youth vote and will his background tempt some the older voters away from Labour?

I doubt he'll win but it'll be interesting to see how well he does.

No surprise that Labour held on to Durham City, but Nick Varley did encourage a 3.9% swing to the Conservatives.
