Plaid Cymru won the Caerphilly by-election overnight, with Reform pushing Labour into a distant third.
Plaid got 47% of the vote on a record turnout, suggesting to me that there was some tactical voting to keep Reform out, which won 36%.
A factor that could be underpriced in a general election.

The Bear hears it everywhere: snip-snip-snip. ✂️
Every party’s reaching for the scissors again – even though there’s nothing left to cut.
A furious, funny howl at Britain’s obsession with “efficiency”.

The ceaseless snip-snip-snip of a dying state
Fifteen years of cuts have left the UK trying to "efficiency" its way out of a collapse – and somehow still expecting growth to show up as well

OCC’s brief says that “The code should reflect the best street design code examples from around the world, such as Amsterdam's Handbook Rood and Oslo's Street Design Manual.” The finished code will be used by planners and developers to inform street design in new developments.
