It's certainly a helpful step in that direction. Oxshott and Cobham are the two most abysmally Tory parts of the constituency. Word has it Raab pulled strings to not lose Oxshott; if so, he's ended up just as badly off, assuming the boundaries proposed stay the same.
Of course, the fact that Raab eked out a win last time was due to a near total obliteration of the Labour vote, partially due to a very weak local candidate and partially due to Corbyn derangement. Neither of those things are likely to be in play next time.
What does this mean as opposed to simply Tory?
Guess.
Wealthy?
Apparently.
"A survey in 2010 by the Daily Telegraph asserted it
(Oxshott) was "the village with most footballers" in England and mentioned other celebrities who chose to live in the village"
"A great many of Oxshott's residential areas are on private roads, gated off and inaccessible to the general public. This, combined with the large and desirable properties that form much of the village's housing stock, contributes to Oxshott's status as the "most expensive village in England"
