      We need to keep in mind that this was an anti-tory vote, not a pro-labour one. This is shown by labour only increasing their vote share by 1.6% when compared with the previous election.

      Labour need to ensure that they’ve made positive changes that the average person can feel by the time the next election comes around because you can guarantee that the Tories are already planning on how they’re going to mop up the reform voters.
