- Labour's vote spread was way more efficient than under Corbyn. Brilliant groundgame - Tory vote was cannibilized by Reform - soft tories stayed at home, unlike with Corbyn - Labour will need to win back the votes lost due to terrible trans and gaza policies ALL THESE THINGS CAN BE TRUE AT ONCE

Meanwhile, away from grifter and militant land, Labour are quietly picking up all their Scottish targets. Which is bad news for the SNP. Lothian East just fell. I'm sure the SNP will claim this is somehow a 'mandate for idependence' still as usual.

The big (and correct) lesson Labour will need to take from this election is that their stance on Gaza is costing them votes they'll need in the next election, when the Tory vote bounces back.

One of the things the Vasa does well is convey the sheer size of warships in the 17th century and beyond. She's a six storey building, with another 50m of mast on top, that floats. Well. Okay. In her case BRIEFLY floats. But the point still stands.
