  • Yes.

    Most recommendations will be more strongly pro labour now... Evidence shows that they can win and that the lib Dems aren't recovering.

    And features we'd missed out on due to not having enough time, like the student comparison, will be added.

    Yes, like in Cambridge where you said to vote for the Lib Dems, as a vote for Labour would let the Conservatives in.

    Labour got a 12,600 majority.

  • True.

    But no data existed saying that a swing to the left was occurring. Lots of opinion (in all directions), but no data.

    Labour had not proven their ability to get votes in 2015 when Lib Dems were shedding them. And it was not known whether the Lib Dem collapse was permanent or just a protest vote.

    Importantly: we did not split the vote, Tories did not benefit from us, where we were not correct either it didn't matter at all (Tory safe seat) our Labour won.

    I feel great about all our recommendations, they were the best we could make given data.

    Now we have more data, and a swing to the left has been proven, and Lib Dems did not gain, and youth are voting... It will be different. Far more labour recommendations.
