Of the 4 ‘remain’ seats, all but 1 were seats where Labour shocked Tory incumbents in 2017 by overturning big majorities to win by a fraction. Emma Dent Coad in Kensington and Chelsea lost by just 150 votes – and only because an ex-Tory LibDem sucked away anti-Tory votes. (5/6)

The Labour right-wingers need to find a better plan. Labour members won’t buy this one when the FACTS are screaming in their face. (6/6 - Ends)
