1983 - "Conservative gain SDP" or "Conservative gain from Labour"?

I am not sure that it is correct to describe the 1983 result as "Conservative gain from SDP". While Bob Mitchell, the defeated sitting MP was a member of the SDP, he been a Labour member prior to 1981 and had always been elected under the Labour banner including at the last general election. The SDP did not exist until 1981 and thus had never contested the seat. Looking at other cases in 1983 where a Labour member had defected to the SDP the results are described differently. For example Leyton which was won by Labour is described as a Labour hold though the defeated incumbent MP Bryan Magee was standing for the SDP which he had defected to in 1982. In Hayes and Harlington, Neville Sandelson had previously been elected as Labour, but was SDP from 1981 and contested the seat as SDP in 1983. The Conservatives gained it, and it is described as "Conservative gain from Labour". To my mind these two examples are more correct as gain/hold status is usually based on the last general election. I would therefore propose to amend this, but would be interested in other editors' views. Dunarc (talk) 19:44, 19 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
