As government ministers, MPs and staffers cram onto Avanti West Coast services out of Euston on Saturday, for Labour’s annual party conference, Best for Britain has just published a landmark new constituency-level megapoll as featured on ITV’s Peston. The findings make for a rude awakening, and need to be on the tip of every tongue in Liverpool this weekend.
How does 321 MPs sound, compared to just 90? Our brand new dataset resoundingly demonstrates that a manifesto commitment to rejoining the EU is the route to securing a Labour-led government at the next general election, and to sparing this country from the nightmare of a Farage-led one. Fail to do so, or settle for a halfway house measure like customs union or single market membership, and it’s curtains: existential wipeout for the party in Scotland and Wales, fewer than 100 MPs and our economy, democracy, and union’s future, in tatters.
