The saving grace is no one thinks Reform can form a government. That should cap votes somewhat and is why what happens here and after is the issue. I was already worried about Farage getting in the minute he announced he was standing and the survation poll is suggesting he's a certainty at this point. |

I'm not sure Farage is a certainty, MRPs are blunt instruments and produce localised weird results, but work better nationally. They have Lee Anderson winning with 61% I saw in one poll, which seems unlikely. A bit of tactical voting from Lib Dems and Greens might still be enough to keep him out.

Whatever the actual outcome, the Tory support has absolutely bombed and is showing zero signs of life. I can't see Reform swinging to the Tories on the basis of the old "shy tory" issue; maybe there are actually more shy Reformers which could really provide a significant unknown in the polling. I would like to see Labour bashing Reform a little to emphasise how much of a threat they are and motivate the votes; I am fearful that Labour will suffer from complacency, Tories will suffer from apathy and Reform will be a big beneficiary. |

Looks like they've deleted the roulette wheel one now. What a surprise!

I’m a long way from London but I can hear the sound of the bottom of the barrel being scraped by CCHQ from up here in Yorkshire.
