General Election - 4th July 2024

If that Lib Dem boost is tactical voting, it's their worst nightmare.

That’s my assumption. YouGov are apparently trying a new methodology which may capture tactical voting. Or it’s an outlier. One to keep an eye on.

It's supposed to replicate their MRP in some way, without actually being an MRP.

Around 40 on election day would still be high for Labour - it could be the first real four party election, where they all poll 10%+.

Blair got 43, but in a 3 party election.
May got 42, but that was pretty much a two party vote, as the LDs were still low due to the coalition, and so close to the Brexit vote, there wasn't any UKIP/Brexit.
Johnson got 43, but the LDs were still low, and the Brexit party of course stood down in Tory seats.

61% of that is centre and centre left which is good to see

It wasn't far off that figure last time. Our voting system is fucking barking when you think about it.

Although I'm not sure what you would describe Labour at the moment. Certainly not centre left.

Ridge is clearly suppressing a laugh here

Ridge screwing her face up before he says about people screwing their faces up then she has to try hard not to screw her face up again at what he says.

Corrupt, and have no thought for those who need it most.

Never forget this, there is the rich and then there is … nobody else.

It will be just a bit of harmless election fun according to some.

If you spread hate it's bound to bite you on the arse eventually.
