So. Just to put that one to bed. No. If reform hadn't existed the Tories wouldn't have won. Wouldn't have been the largest party. Just no. None of those things.

🆕 Barely more than a third of people who voted Reform yesterday said they might have voted Conservative. Our new poll conducted since 10pm yesterday finds the assumption simply adding up Tory & Reform UK votes would make a single combined block is likely to be wrong. https://t.co/GmfWa9qG2R

It's a little tedious to hear politicians that spent six weeks endlessly telling people that a vote for Reform meant a vote for Labour now saying that votes for reform are actually just Tory votes in disguise. Voters are smart, they do know what their votes mean.

One of the most consistent/least inconsistent messages Sunak had in this election was railing against renewable energy, a success story of the Conservative period in government, that most voters like, and the ones who just elected 71 Lib Dems really like.

This chart blows my mind, and has huge ramifications for the shape of British politics. I don't think it really means "Abandon the center ground" it does mean "you need bold policies that cut across divides". Like Energy Independence and action on sewage.

It's absolutely bonkers how much more marginal Britain has become. With most results in, the average seat majority looks to be about 6,700, down from 11,200 in 2019. We have a Labour landslide, yet at the constituency level seats are tighter than any point since 1945 #GE24 https://t.co/aaRlInim5R

If nobody goes to jail for refusing "national service" then it's do it or pay a fine. So, essentially, it's national service unless you can afford to pay. That's also presumably why they haven't wanted to go into detail.
