Quick update on these findings now we have a new @DeltapollUK poll:
Lab Leavers: 31% now backing Con (up 5 on last week)
Con Remainers: 9% now backing Lab (up 7 on last week)
So Cons still doing better with Lab Leavers, but Lab picking up a little (2% last week did seem low)
@DeltapollUK However, Lab is doing better among Leavers than a week ago because BXP has collapsed w/ this group - whereas last week BXP took 26% of Lab Leavers, this week it is *0%*. Highlights volatility of cross-tabs and suggests maybe I was my conclusion that BXP hurting Lab was too hasty
@DeltapollUK Indeed, the Brexit realignment effect this week looks much more balanced than last week:
31% of Con Remainers say they are switching (22% to LD, 9% to Lab), while 31% of Lab Remainers are switching to Con.
Cons gaining more directly, but Lab to LD may make sense in Con-LD seats
Overall this is marginally better news for Lab than the same poll last week - they're not getting hurt by BXP and Cons now losing as much of their Remain vote as Lab losing from its Leave vote.
*But* direct Lab Leave to Con switching still substantial, could be decisive
A direct Lab to Con switch counts double in Lab held Con targets - one off the Lab total, one on to the Con total. And Lab are still picking up relatively few Con Remainers to offset this.

@DeltapollUK Should read "31% Lab Leavers switching to Con" - I would delete but it would mess up the thread.
