It's pretty thin pickings this time to be frank, even the seats Labour have held include a lot of replacements for standing down MPs. And a lot of older Tories have retired.

I agree its slim pickings in large measure because of the reasons outlined but I think tory MP Heather Wheeler is worth going on peoples lists .I think she has a bit of an unhealthy look to her,old before her time and frankly without wishing to be cruel quite overweight.
