Surprised how few wards you've got Labour carrying in SW Norfolk. Presumably you're modelling a fairly chunky margin in Thetford? Yes Labour by about two to one in Thetford (40/20/20) and they also carried Downham Market. They were very close in some of the rural wards and with some ridiculous three or four way splits (the rural Breckland wards overall I have Con/Lab/Ref/Ind as 28/25/22/14 but Labour ahead in none of them). It's entirely possible that with a very small shift in votes Labour carried eg Guiltcross, Swaffham, Nar Valley, Tilney, Mershe Lande and Wiggenhall

It's interesting, all things considered, how 'normal' this looks for the most part in terms of which party carried each district. Also a good illustration of how efficient Labour's vote has been this time. In 1997 Labour won a plurality in Suffolk but only won 2 of 7 seats.

Not difficult to spot the two areas where the "progressive anti-Tory" vote coalesced with someone other than Labour here.

I will leave it to the author of the original post to give a definitive answer, but having checked what I believe to be the three least negative constituencies shown (Glasgow North, Glasgow South and Glasgow South West), I think I can confirm that their colouring is consistent with the SNP, the Scottish Greens and Alba being treated as counting towards "YES" and the other parties standing in those constituencies as counting towards "NO" - on that basis, the largest "YES" percentage would apparently be slightly over 46% in Glasgow South.

It's quite clear some anti-independence supporters voted SNP to stop the Conservatives in parts of central and southern Scotland ...

Or they support the SNP's policies outside of independence and don't see independence as the be-all and end-all of deciding their vote. That's probably more common with the Scottish Greens than the SNP, though.

JK turns out some excellent work. It is a surprise to see Reform underperformed UKIP15 in some Leave type seats but concentrate their vote in select areas. Potential to embed or flash-in-a-pan?

In my modelling there was an almost perfect correlation between Reform vote and English national identity (in English). That single variable on its own explained the vast majority of variance in the Reform vote. This isn't too surprising given that those who identify as English rather than British are overwhelmingly white, generally older than average, and usually live in less affluent areas, but I was surprised at just how close the correlation was. Notably English identity and UKIP 2015 vote saw a rather weaker (though still significant) relationship.
