Much of this has been said, and none of it should come as a shock, but I think some of the nuance is interesting.

Not the whole story (because we also need to think about the voters Lab could have lost / won) but given Labour’s vote share fell by nearly 8%, these voters were key.
But still don't think that is the full picture. Lot's of people stated it was the lack of leadership on Brexit, consistent with previous research.

It makes their comments all the more interesting.
But clear the picture is a lot more complicated than that, and leadership/Corbyn was a far bigger factor.
1) Don't have the same leader in opposition for too long
2)Triangulation doesn't work on the biggest issue of the day, you either need to kill it as an issue, or take a hard position
