  • “It’s not just the poll lead but the risk of tactical shifts which further diminish the Conservative vote share and capacity to win seats.”
    The Conservatives fear that voters turning to Reform UK and the Liberal Democrats in constituencies with small majorities will propel Labour into government, explains visiting professor at LSE Tony Travers.

      ●Starmer is very untrustworthy as per all polls. He will betray UK Jews & UK HRE commission will find Labour guilty of racism again as there are many Azar Ali type jew haters running to be MP's.
      He breaks promises a lot & gives no deep details
      nil big details
      none extensive details,
      so voters will distrust him till the cows come home.
      A Synagogue was attacked in France last week.
      A Chicago woman rabbi was killed by a pro-Palestinian protester.
      When leaflet dropping starts & they see the star of David on the door, u know what the Labour muslim & racist marxist campaigners will do & it will be front page in the newspapers every day.

    EXACTLY the same thing exists for the Labour Party at all elections. They lose votes on their left to the Greens and on their right to the LibDems. These types of consequences will continue being present as long as the first-past-the-vote voting method remains in place. And the Conservatives could have changed that to a proportional or single transferrable voting method at the same time as they dispensed with the fixed terms of parliament. The reason they didn't do that was they calculated that it was not in their long term interests.

      I'd hardly say they suffer from FPTP. If (as likely) they lose this election, they'll still come second. Under a PR system where tactical voting became pointless, they might come fifth.

    Reform did 'fairly well' in UK local elections? They won a grand total of 2 seats and their vote share was small enough to be lumped together with 'others'. Why are you choosing to talk up Reform when the Lib Dems performed much, much better in local elections and are actually likely to win a useful number of Commons seats?
