This is a very good night for Labour, but we're also seeing Reform beat the Tories into second place in a number of seats. Both Reform *and the Conservatives* are going to take note of those percentages, and that means we're a long way from detoxifying our politics, even given a big Labour win.

In terms of Brexit, what this means is that Starmer can't (and has already said he won't) go full-on for rejoining the EU/realigning with the single market. I do think he'll very quietly start to lay the groundwork, but that means a series of small, individual deals, carried out very gradually.
