Notable in today's YouGov that the centre/left bloc - Lab/Green/LD/SNP are on 54%. With Reform/Tories on 43%. That's the biggest differential in a long time.
I think useful to track blocs given instability between parties at the moment.

Not sure why Reform are up in arms about 16 and 17 year olds voting. They put this 18 year old in charge of a £2bn council, which is pretty irresponsible if they thought he couldn’t even be trusted to vote a few months ago.

Just in from mammoth interview session to two bits of news. One that a DV perp got locked up because of something I did and that a vulnerable constituent had a a massive wrongful debt written off after our intervention. This is why I came to politics, this is why I'll just keep cracking on.
