  • My feeling is that it's not clear cut.

    Think about the following scenarios:

    1. Life long small-c conservative who can't bare to vote for the last cunts
    2. Starmer hating leftist who doesn't live in Walthamstow or Islington North
    3. Time poor semi-engaged who's been told Labour will win in their seat
