@LeftieStats Labour won’t win Ilford North. Wes Streeting marginally retained the seat against Leanne Mohamad. I’m doubtful they’ll win all three Enfield seats too considering the Tories were one council seat away from a majority. Southgate and Wood Green may even end up Green.
@OpiniumResearch Interesting to see for prospective, although with the rise of independent movements I suspect the 2029 map will be different. i.e., I doubt Wes Streeting will defend his 1.2% majority in Ilford North. 5 party politics but “Others” are growing.
@EkunweL With Reform, Labour can compete on policy with them, particularly immigration, whilst telling the left “it’s them or us”. When the Greens win, it is a complete existential crisis for them threatening to take away core voters. Labour cannot compete with the Greens on policy.
@LeftieStats@YouGov Greens have yet to reach their ceiling, whilst Reform generally looks to have peaked among various pollsters. Greens still have room to capture more of those considering voting for them compared to those saying they will vote for them.
@brfootball The Premier League needs to bring back winter breaks. Had it for 3 seasons and then scrapped it. Ligue 1 reschedules PSG’s league matches to help them rest between Champions League games. The competitiveness of the PL means these clubs always face tough opponents every game.
@LeftieStats Would an electoral pact between Lib Dems and Greens in the South West benefit either party? Not to sure if they’d pick up more seats given a 47% right-wing vote. Labour probably too much of a spoiler here.
@Heccles94 Left-wing parties and independents need to gather around the table. We’ve seen how effectively NFP won seats at the 2024 French Elections; albeit centrist parties won’t stand down anyone as Ensemble had. The left will have to do something similar as long as FPTP remains in place.
@LeftieStats@ZackPolanski@FindoutnowUK Labour down to 9 seats! At what point will the establishment parties accept that the playing field has changed and that FPTP, which worked so well for them, will now demote them to electoral oblivion. ‘Things can only get worse...’ Give us PR, STV or really anything but FPTP.
@ThatGarthGuy What would STV look like under assumed transfer patterns? Likely fairly similar results anyways. If electoral reform was to be achieved UK wide, STV would be tabled as an option.
@FPL_TomHadley Dubravka really opens the door to having a team with Salah, Palmer/Saka, Watkins and Bowen in the same team. That said, I’m not sure about having 3 players from Burnley, Leeds and Wolves.
@LetsTalk_FPL Here’s a challenge, what’s the best squad you can make if you could only take one player per club? Some picks might be mins risks so perhaps more changes are needed.
So Corbyn has confirmed that he will be joining the new party .
He would make a great leader. 18% of people said they will vote for a Corbyn led party .
Retweet if you would vote and join a Corbyn led party
@FPLMeerkat I did smth similar in my draft league and this was the result. Picked 15 players from 15 teams (exc promoted sides) for most of the season. Also had only full-backs, wingers and attacking mids to play 352/343. Ended regular FPL at 77.7k but will try this next season.
