So that's 13 seats that the Green votes could have gone to someone else to stop the Tories.
Again it's a huge what if.
(There's also lots of double counting as 12 of those 13 could also have been won with the Lib Dem votes, the only one that is specifically Green was Stroud)
Mine, Chipping Barnet.
Tory majority of 1,212. 5,932 LibDem votes. Also 1,288 Green votes so one could point at them equally.
