If 20% of the 2019 Clacton Tories switched to Labour and half of the rest went to Reform, Labour would win. That’s without taking into account those that won’t bother this time which will impact the Tories more.
Should be the nail in the coffin for the Tories though, that 66 seat prediction could come down by 15-20.
As an optimist, I am hopeful that the conservatives being wiped off the floor in one general election shows Labour and everyone else that it can and will happen to them if they try to embrace fringe extremist ideologies.
Super rich people have wanted to get off the planet for as long as we’ve known about other planets to be fair.
Agree a Labour victory there would be a long shot but it would be funny as fuck if it happened. I think a Farage win is the most likely outcome bearing in mind it’s the only constituency that UKIP have ever won in an election.Survation did some hypothetical polling (which is obviously very shaky, but apparently was a private contract aimed at persuading Farage to stand). Unfortunately it suggested Labour's vote in Clacton could actually go down slightly if Farage stands.
Bear in mind, Labour's vote has gone up quite a lot since the last election, and some of those will be the social conservatives/leavers that Boris appealed to, and that Farage is may be able to attract.
Saddest thing about Farage is that he’s only in it for himself and what he can grift. Doesn’t give the first shit about anybody in the country, or even in Clacton for that matter. Hilariously, he does it by pretending he’s ’one of us’. The biggest indictment of the education sector is people believe him……I think extremisf ideologies is pushing things a little too far. I wouldn't class Corbyn or Farage like that.

Whatever ones criticisms of Corbin might be, self aggrandisement would never be one of them.
