Adding the 2016 votes might make the pattern a little clearer. The ex-2016 UKIP vote appears to have been split between Labour and Tory in 2021. These people may have now swapped to Reform, taking a few more 2021 Tory & Labour voters with them - with other 2021 Labour voters moving to Plaid. ???

Because of the large number of non-voters, it's very difficult to be sure over who swapped votes, and to where, or did and didn't vote who previously did or didn't. #Caerphilly #byelection #Plaid #Labour

Off to visit my native terrain, to practice the Manc Walk. Not needed to do it for a few years, so am a bit rusty. I'm sure I'll pick it up again in no time - like riding a bike.

Beverley has a medieval petrol pump. Fancy that. And I always thought ox carts ran on grass.

This is a place where you can go on a pub crawl, without leaving the pub. This is the mediaeval roof space in the back room.

The Monks Walk is indeed excellent. A pint of Greenhorn still cider is going down very nicely.

Experienced a wonderful "Heritage Open Days" tour around Longley Farm's facility near Holmfirth, today. Can now appreciate why their yogurts always taste nicer than everyone else's.

The Queensgate market "conversion" is looking fantastic. This is how the roof should have always been displayed - instead of being hidden behind nondescript shops (externally) and crowded stalls (internally). #Huddersfield #Brutalism
