Could Ed Balls soon be back in the Commons? There is a rumour going round that Labour’s veteran MP in Coventry North West, Geoffrey Robinson, who was at the centre of a huge internal row about whether he would stand down before the election, could quit and trigger a by-election:
Whisper it but will Geoffrey Robinson fall on his sword offering his dear friend @edballsmp a route back to the Commons? If not now, when?

@ciarannorris @edballsmp @DamianGannon @matt1nnes Personally I don't want Cov NW to have someone who was rejected by voters elsewhere.
