1. A SNP/Labour electoral deal is non starter 2. Greens have at best plausibles chance in 3 seats - even with help 3. So comes down to LibDem/Labour - with Starmer in this is possible. Work on this has been done already & an a'ment in just 30 seats would have huge consequences...
For lots of (complex as well as obvious) reasons its easier for UK parties to work with them than SNP - and Welsh seats - oft forgotten in London - can be very marginal due to 3-4 vote splits.
A very underrated strategy.
