Anyone but the Greens - pleeeese!

I always worry that these polls extrapolate from a limited sample and underestimate - in particular - the 'shy Tories'. Unpleasant premonitions of 1964 rather than 1997. FPTP could give unexpected results if Labour votes are siphoned off by Lib-Dem and Green while one-nation Conservatives hold their nose and vote anyway - despite the chaotic record - because Reform disgusts them more.

Kind of getting a bit bored with all this speculative journalism. Labour beyond more than likely to win, so let's look for any angle that we can continue to wang on about. Honestly - do you really think that any but the disgruntled will be looking at vote share? Pretty much a big 'so what'. Being in government is what matters.
