Your reference to The Observer newspaper points to a DAB page. You mean The Observer. WP says "it takes a liberal/social democratic line on most issues" and I believe that this was the case in 2003 and is still the case.
The 2003 article, referring to Barnett as "the best MP the area had ever had", does not display any pro-Labour bias, in my view. The quote from the current Labour MP clearly indicates the angle he takes. The Observer doesn't say he was the best MP the area ever had, Jim Knight does, when contemplating his potential defeat in the forthcoming election. The PPCs of other parties are quoted also.
