Recent polls indicate a significant decline in support for the Tories, with expectations that Labour may seize seats in the upcoming election. The 'Red Wall' dynamics in British politics are shifting, as key factors like Boris Johnson, Corbyn, and Brexit no longer play a dominant role. Analysis suggests a potential Tory wipeout, with polls suggesting they could fall below 100 seats, raising questions about the future of parliamentary democracy.
Is a Tory wipeout possible at the next election? Sam shows why it could happen and the implications for the parties and parliamentary democracy. (£/free trial) https://t.co/umEy0OEKjo
New post just out The Tories are in disarray and polls are pointing to them falling below 100 seats. I try to take an objective look at how likely that is and what it would mean if it actually happens. "Wipeout: the odds narrow" (£/free trial) https://t.co/0zFpO46ZwZ
Will the ‘Red Wall’ reshape British politics again? The Tories swept 50-odd northern/Midlands seats from Labour in 2019 thanks to Boris, Brexit & Corbyn What now, given none of those factors pertain? @PickardJE & my Big Read analysis in @FT today 👇 https://t.co/njm6wDLPbp
- went to Grimsby to report on Red Wall ahead of election - little enthusiasm for Starmer or Sunak but expectation Labour will seize the seat because the big 3 factors behind December 2019 have unwound (Johnson, Corbyn, Brexit delay) with @LOS_Fisher https://t.co/BeS98lvy5d
- went to Grimsby to report on the Red Wall ahead of general election - little enthusiasm for Keir Starmer but widespread expectations that Labour will seize the seat - the big 3 factors behind December 2019 have unwound (Johnson, Corbyn, Brexit delay) https://t.co/BeS98lvy5d
Beautiful big read on the fight for the red wall from Grimsby by @PickardJE (with great pics by Charlie Bibby) and @LOS_Fisher https://t.co/D7k2AH5rPT
Good piece on the Red Wall. It's salutary to be reminded that people in places like Grimsby really, truly believed in Johnson and what Brexit might do for them - https://t.co/G4l8dnoWR3 via @FT
Yep, Tories in a new poll plummet. New Redfield & Wilton confirms Delta Poll trend from earlier. Now we wait for the scores from the Tories' weak polls (eg YouGov) ⬇️ 😬 https://t.co/qpsPmST9oC
