A return to two-party politics? Dont believe it

[Ken Burch]

5. In the Greens case(and yes, cooperation between Greens and left-LibDems could be interesting)

(especially on the local level) that was largely due, from what I read, to two factors

1) A lot of Green voters in 2015 were people who voted Green because they wanted to vote for a clearly left-wing party, who felt Labour was not that party in 2015 but was in 2017, and thus shifted back to Labour;

2) Right before polling day, the Greens withdrew their candidates in about 30 Tory-Labour marginals.

If there is a snap election in the next year, it is likely that the price for further cooperation between the Greens and Labour would be a Labour commitment to implement pr for Westminster elections at the earliest possible date. Once that is in place, the "progressive alliance" some talked out this time would actually be possible(and would actually be progressive).

What was the result in your constituency, btw?
