+UPDATE+

Conservative internal polling as well as an Electoral Calculus survey has revealed the Tories stand to lose "in excess of 50 seats" to Labour under current polling.

This is an addition to a number of southern seats expected to drop to the LibDems at the next election.

This fits into what ive been saying for sometime:

LibDem top 20 target seats are virtually all Tory held with small margins
Labour focussing on the top 50 Tory held small marginal seats..

..can deliver quite efficiently a change in govt.

Again, as Ive said before,...the trick to using this is for Labour to concentrate on Tory held small margin seats...that Libdems cant win and..

...LibDems to focus on 20-40 Tory held small margin states where LibDems have the better chance than Labour.

Its not rocket science...

Next,

Dont be distracted by fools waffling on about "northern red wall seats" these people dont know what they're talking about.

The Midlands is the key area for Labour
20 Southern Remainer seats the key for LibDems

For those asking...

There'll be no party cooperation in Scotland.
It simply wont happen for a number of reasons, the main one being the SNP simply dont need one.

But for me Wales is the key 3rd area & coop btwn PC/LibDem/Lab could be vital, even the key, to getting Johnson out.

There's 2 ways Johnson will seek to fight back on this

1. Branding Starmer a left wing high tax Labour PM
2. Fighting a "patriotic" Brexit culture war
