Labour are going to be ousted from a lot of seats they hold, it's going to be a slaughter.
I think it's best to take what fight still exists to form opposition and focus it into the strongest one possible.
No single party can be that opposition. SNP and Labour have both in their own ways guaranteed that. Opposition will have to be an alliance in any case. The right are united (see UKIP standing aside everywhere to boost the Tory vote), and the centre and left are still having arguments about how best to form a numerically effective opposition.
I note that you haven't argued against the data, or against the Remain vote, or against the fact that LAB have declared Brexit a done deal, or against the strong support that LIB candidate does have... you've only argued for LAB, blind to the risk it poses. LAB are 3rd in the list of likely winners for Cambridge... behind CON, yet you would have people vote LAB and against their own EU preference too?

Well, I argue the data. This data is given when it's still missing days of the campaign before the vote. Also, who is in charge of this data? Are we sure that it's not another manoeuvre to boycott Corbyn while helping the Tories friends? Is not this kind of data never been proven wrong after elections? Maybe Labour won't win but taking votes from them for those is not good.
And, Corbyn didn't take a clear position on Brexit, I doubt very much that it will be the Hard Brexit. What instead is very sure is that he will beat the rich. And I as I said before, even if I don't see a penny of that, it still makes me joyful. And a good beat to all these leeches of bureaucrats trying to make a business around the main parts wouldn't be less of a gratification. Anyway, now let's not dream too much.

Which is Labour.

Again the numerically effective opposition is Labour. The only party, other than the Conservatives, that can form a government.

What is the data? Is it local polling, or are you extrapolating from national polls?
yet you would have people vote LAB and against their own EU preference too?
The latest national opinion poll has the Lib Dems on 8%, so it seems as if the vast majority of Remain voters are content to go into the polling booth and disregard Tim Farron's boys and girls.

So you think the best way to counter this is to oust Labour from seats that they hold, and back a party that formed an alliance with the Conservatives?
