If the Greens surge among Progressive Activists continues then it does open up a huge swathe of safe Labour seats as battlegrounds in places like Hackney, Manchester etc. Does feel like Labour could approach their own Tory 2024 moment - losing safe seats in all directions.
🧵 Looking at out 7 segments latest voting patterns shows how much politics is changing. Starting with Progressive Activists, for the first time Greens lead with this the most economic & socially left segment. In 2019 nearly 6 in 10 voted Labour, today fewer than half that would

Time for MRPs to be reported with more caution 3/4 yrs out from an election. Result closer to constituency polling - but still 10% off for Plaid. We’ve gone back to consuming polls as gospel only a year on from Labour lead being grossly overstated & seat forecasts 50 seats out
Caerphilly Senedd By-Election Result: 🌼 PLC: 47.4% (+19.0) ➡️ REF: 36.0% (+34.2) 🌹 LAB: 11.0% (-34.9) 🌳 CON: 2.0% (-15.3) 🌍 GRN: 1.5% (New) 🔶 LDM: 1.5% (-1.2) 🐉 GWL: 0.3% (New) 💷 UKIP: 0.2% (New) Plaid Cymru GAIN from Labour. Changes w/ 2021.
