The polling backdrop of the local elections - i.e., how they've shifted since these seats were last fought.

As in the GE last year, the Tories' collapse is more proportional than uniform - they've lost more where they were stronger - meaning their losses will be more severe.

The flaw in the Lord Ashcroft poll is it undersamples (after weighting) the least Reform-friendly parts of the seat by 21pts. And oversamples the most by 20pts.

The Gowy villages & Helsby make up 22% of the seat's electorate. But only... 1% of the poll's sample.

Finished a game of #Civ7 in the Antiquity Age. A lot of fun, but Initial thoughts:

The UI needs work: a lot of work

Civilopedia isn’t really helpful or properly interactive

I actually got stuck trying to make a trade route because I forgot how they work now (I legit thought the UI was bugged)

Some great shots of the Barbican complex in London taken by an amazing photographer friend on nearly expired film last summer (I'm the photo-ruining ass in the white jacket).

In the absence of anything better for my first post here, why not a cool shot or took I took from the Neon Museum in Warsaw (tbh, I think any shot from there will look cool).
