Default Opposition to the West London Tram steps up

Ah well, there's a surprise. The 3 councils concerned are all
Conservative controlled.

And why? Because last year the two Labour-controlled councils were voted
out because they supported the tram.

There was an overall national swing from Labour to Conservative. Is
there data to suggest that this particular change of control only took
place due to Labour voters changing their vote over the tram issue?
