Basically the whole block of Reform/Brexit party voters moved to the Tories, makes it hard for Labour in a pro Brexit post Brexit world
That's true, which is why I'm less concerned about the size of the Tory majority (which broadly can be attributed to the collapse of the Brexit / UKIP party) but the fact that Labour went down 9 points. If we'd increased our percentage share I could write this off as a glitch, but the fact that we lost vote share is the real problem imo and we need to do something about it. Christ knows what though. What possible policy offering can unite Hartlepool and Newham?
