Lia Nici (Conservative) v Melanie Onn (Labour): the General Election sequel coming soon


In the red corner - Labour challenger Melanie Onn

THE two women who contested the Great Grimsby constituency at the last General Election in December 2019 are renewing their acquaintance - and their political rivalry.

Lia Nici (Conservative) and Melanie Onn (Labour) will be seeing a lot more of one another in the coming months as they debate the great issues of the day in the run-up to the next General Election which is expected to be held in autumn or winter.

Yesterday evening,  the duo sparred in a live debate, before a guest audience, on Sky TV.

The exchanges were amicable and courteous, but they could become  more feisty in the weeks to come.

Ms Onn was the Great Grimsby MP until she lost the seat to Ms Nici in 2019.

Next time round,  following parliamentary boundary changes, the Grimsby constituency will also include Cleethorpes.

It could be a very close contest.
