I expect to see plenty of this moving forward, Labour and Greens split the vote, handing the seat to Reform.

And it'll likely be the same by the GE. A 5(!) way split between Reform, Labour, LD, Tories and Greens, making the whole thing a bit of a lottery.

If theres any saving grace its that I think Reform will suffer, as (I suspect), supporters of the other parties (Tories aside) will vote to keep Reform out

I think the Lib Dem’s will could pick up a lot of Labour votes from voters who think the Greens are a bit too radical as there’s nowhere else for them to go.

Happened where I live in Essex last GE. Seat has been Tory since forever, Labour has no chance here to there was a massive flip to Lib Dem.

So a vote for Labour is a wasted vote based on those numbers

Labour activists paid for smear campaign against journalists

Labour Together, the group that helped make Keir Starmer leader, hired lobbyists who falsely suggested reporters were linked to Russia

If it's a hung Parliament then no-one else will work with Reform. Not even the mental Nordie parties who saved T-Bag in 2017.

Rupert Lowe's new party might be a big help tbf, even if they only get 5% it'll definitely stop reform winning a number of seats

It certainly sounds like Morgan McSweeney is quite the piece of work.

Captain U-turn strikes again - proposed local election postponements will now go ahead in may

 

[Kenny]

Obviously confident of Labour winning them then...

 

[Tony Towner]

Have any of the u-turns gained him any capital, political or personal? It's just a punchline now.

Yougov have done a poll that confirms that Reform are behind in every head-to-head battle:

I like the above BUT it does mean that, where I am, I will have to tactically vote for Rishi Sunak against any Reform candidate...
