This MRP shows the Lib Dems losing everything in Scotland, as do most MRPs. Given the SNP's current weakness and the Lib Dems' reputation for holding on, it seems like a failing of the modelling rather than a realistic prospect. I think I'd call it vulnerability rather than weakness. Their poll ratings appear to be holding up better than one might expect, but the attack lines against them are now better defined than for a long time and under the heat of battle they might struggle to defend themselves. That's fair and with support for Indy still running at more than 10 points above SNP voting intention there's also opportunity for the SNP to recover among Yes voters - some of whom presumably have recently plumped for Starmer's Labour.

Labour also to win Eastbourne and Montgomery. In reality, Labour has no chance in either seat.
Is this Montgomery on the presently proposed new boundaries? Because that is theoretically plausible as a stretch Labour target in a very good year.

Outside of Plymouth and Exeter, Labour councillors elected in Devon this year East Devon 3 (+2) one each in Ottery St Mary, Exmouth and Honiton Mid Devon 0 North Devon 0 South Hams 1 (+1) - in Dartmouth Teignbridge 0 Torbay 0 Torridge 2 (-1) in Bideford West Devon 1 - in Bere Ferrers West Devon was a gain on 2019, and they are 3 up on then in East Devon. I expect they might have hoped to win something in Teignbridge, however.

where the hell did they get a Labour gain in North Devon from? I mean, that's (expletive deleted) ludicrous. It's Labour's weakest seat in Devon, which is saying a great deal, and has been for a very long time.

www.focaldata.com/blog/bi-focal-11-what-explains-our-politicsLots of good stuff about where voters sit on the spectrum. Not a surprise that the Auth Left is the most popular segment. Scroll down the page to view various outcomes for the GE should there be a 'swing back' to the government (based upon the YouGov MRP). It is estimated that Labour require a lead of 5-7% for a working majority.

When will we discover that Farage is secretly the owner of a ladies' lingerie business?

Now, now, you have to remember businesses are also allowed to self identify, not just humans.

Lord Spodecup. Thanks. (Bertie Wooster called him that when accused of something by him)
