Having worked on the ground on this campaign I really appreciate your congratulations, but the circumstances here were very local and more about Labour contempt for local people than a specific anti-Reform vote. See greenwichwire.co.uk/2025/06/27/l...

To be honest I think all is to play for especially if you have the resources to run a good campaign. I don't think pre-existing ideas of who voted for who apply now

Having worked on the ground on this campaign the idea it will 'flip back' is completely off the mark. Our victory was won with a brilliant local candidate countering the contempt for local voters that Greenwich Labour had shown. That will not be forgotten by next May.
