Could going hard on environmental issues help the Liberal Democrats retain the Blue Wall at the next election?
Our new report, based on one of the most in-depth analyses of Lib Dem voter attitudes to the environment, suggests it could.

If you haven’t done so already, have a go at our super short quiz to see what segment you are in our new model.
The segments capture worldviews really powerfully so it’s illuminating to see how your values differ from other Britons.
(A prize if you can guess my segment!)

In 2020 @moreincommonuk.bsky.social launched the British 7 Segments. After a pandemic, major global conflicts, political upheaval, cost of living crisis, changes in work/social/information habits it’s time to update them for 2025. Here’s an intro to our new tribes of Britain (Quiz link next)

The extent to which Reform have cannibalised the Conservatives' vote is remarkable.
In last week's poll, 2019 Conservative voters were more likely to say they would vote for Reform than vote for the Conservatives.
Reform pose an existential threat for the Tories.

We often talk about politicians being out of step with public opinion.
The Youth Mobility scheme is a huge example of this - just the other way round to what we’re used to!
Our quant & qual research strongly suggests there would be no public backlash to a youth mobility scheme.

Over 60 MPs from new intake sign letter calling for time-limited visas for 18- to 30-year-olds to travel freely
* Keir Starmer’s realignment with Europe will be a low-key one
Keir Starmer is under pressure from over 60 new Labour MPs to allow thousands of young Europeans to live and work in the UK, a move seen as key to unlocking a more ambitious trade reset with Brussels.
The chancellor, Rachel Reeves, said discussions on a potential scheme were “ongoing” – the clearest hint yet that the government is preparing to do a deal. Continue reading...

Our latest MRP shows just how fragmented the electorate is and how challenging Labour’s situation is.
It aligns with what we’ve been picking up in our focus groups as well - a complete loss of confidence in Labour’s ability to deliver a meaningful improvement to people’s lives.

New @moreincommonuk.bsky.social MRP in @thetimes.com from polling of over 16,000 people finds a highly fragmented and divided electorate. It estimates Reform UK as the largest party with 180 seats, followed by Labour & the Tories on 165 seats each, but hundreds of seats on a knife edge.

Our latest MRP provides strong evidence that Reform’s post-election bounce and rise in support across the country is very real.
For the Lib Dems & Greens it’s important to note our model doesn’t take full account of tactical voting, as we don’t yet know how that will work out…

It suggests a hypothetical parliament like the below.
🌹Labour: 228 (-183)
🌳Conservatives: 222 (+101)
➡️Reform UK: 72 (+ 67)
🔶Lib Dems: 58 (-14)

What particularly stuck out to me when producing this chart was just how few people are aware the government has deported 10,000 illegal migrants since taking office.
Yet despite spending a good chunk of yesterday's PMQs attacking Badenoch's migration record, Starmer didn't mention this once.

🧵Ahead of Starmer’s speech we shared with @sophyridge.bsky.social new polling on what cut through in Labour’s first months in office & how much people liked it. What we found was interesting! First there was one stand out success - raising the minimum wage, high cut through, v.popular.
