Watching Attenborough at 100 and reflecting on just how much the vast majority of Brits will absolutely hate and despise a Reform govt. It'd be contrary to their most basic values: care for each other; belief in protecting the planet and the future; collective responsibility; optimism; hope itself.

The one thing that would reset the whole political debate would be if Keir Starmer announced on Monday that he wanted to rejoin the EU. Reform would have a field day, but he would unite the left and make politics a binary choice between the two.

Ah, I see that Matt has written the latest in his series 'Did I ever really stand a chance in [...]' to reflect on why he failed at his recent objective. Past episodes including - getting a Chair at a better university; finding a lunch partner in the department.

There is a different possibility: that different parties have regional strengths. I can imagine a landscape where the Lib Dems have the nice middle class southern areas, the Greens have trendy urban Britain and Reform have the godforsaken bits. Try modelling that with vote shares. 2/2
