Isn't that just accepting that now voting against the Tories might include SNP / Plaid Cymru / Green rather than labour / libs as in previous years?

Why is that a problem? They’re saying that the opinion of the newspaper is that Boris would be less preferable for the UK than the other options. It’s an opinion; I don’t see that something labelled opinion/editorial has to provide a balanced view.

this observer 'guide' is absolutely worthless. e.g. it is recommending the SNP in east lothian (a LAB-held seat with a 3k majority) and it was recommending the SNP in kirkcaldy... but there's no SNP candidate in that seat as they were withdrawn due to antisemitism
velocio guide looks broadly sensible from a few constituencies I plugged in (e.g. kensington, east lothian, glasgow seats) tho would prefer if it recommended LAB in the SNP/LAB marginals. easier to get a LAB govt (and kick the tories out) if they don't have to make concessions to the SNP. (think westminster and finchley should be LAB recommendations too). I'd probably recommend SNP (over LAB) in glasgow south because the candidate is 🤮

And, honestly, this is just so typical Guardian/Observer:
https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2019/dec/08/observer-view-on-general-election-and-who-to-vote-for
For as long as I can remember, the Guardian and Observer have endorsed one party, either Labour or the Lib Dems. To claim it is clear that people have to vote against Johnson is considerably less clear than their previous recommendations. Not that anything is clear about this election, anyway.
