[QUOTE="ncurd, post: 1042558, member: 72205"] Probably one of those "don't read too much" results or quite more probably "reading the wrong thing". I'm unsure how much effort Labour actually put into the campaign and the LD's definitely did, a friend in Milton Keynes kept getting emails to go help out the LD's. Support for other "progressive parties" when an actual result can occur will usually plummet as people are likely to tactically vote its fair to say in most LD majorities especially of the past their voters might more Lab inclined than Tories. Hence the complete collapse of 2015. Its a great result for "Not the Tories" and LD's, terrible for Conservatives (especially as it came out of nowhere) and a who knows for everyone else. Batley and Spen might be a fair one to judge Labour current predicament up North, its obtainable by the Tories but requires a big swing and only in 2015 have right leaning parties manage over 50%. It should noted there 50billion spoiler parties in that one though and George Galloway has reared his ugly head in it. [/QUOTE]
