It’s about seats not votes

@ZiaYusufUK U are all minorities in a multi party system. None of u deserve to rule outright. Who is 1 & 2 in a system where there’s not much between u and all of them means little. It’s individual seats that matter not a hyped national picture. However the media 24/7 propaganda helps reform

Wow, a new poll from BMG gives Reform a huge 9 point lead! 🚀🇬🇧

@tab3lecover @PolliticsUK @BMGResearch Hahahaha

@PolliticsUK @BMGResearch Restore when polled correctly are on 40-45% Lowe will be our next PM.

🚨 Westminster Voting Intention: ➡️ REF: 28% (=) 🌹 LAB: 19% (=) 🌳 CON: 17% (-1) 🟢 GRN: 16% (=) 🔶️ LDEM: 12% (=) From @BMGResearch From 29th - 30th April Changes with 26th March

@PolliticsUK @BMGResearch All our parties are minorities. Each one of them is a significant player in a multi party system. Number 1 and 2 places in a poll matter little in a multi party system..we need to start adapting to that. Each individual seat is different. Simple binaries of left/right are dead

@jimbocrofts @JamesMarshcz3o @LeftieStats @BritainElects There’s no story yet. It’s all ridiculous predictions. Only votes matter, not polls and you know that. The election has not yet happened or are you now saying you gov etc is in charge of our democracy not people voting in the ballot box?

@SeatsNotVotes @JamesMarshcz3o @LeftieStats @BritainElects Just trying to bring some perspective to your idiotic idea that the Lib Dem’s aren’t the big story of the local elections.

‼️NEW | Projected result for local elections: ➡️ Ref: 1,689 (+1,689) 🟢 Grn: 1,087 (+926) 🔵 Con: 754 (-608) 🟠 Lib: 741 (+57) 🔴 Lab: 616 (-1,941) (Source: @BritainElects)

@SeatsNotVotes @JamesMarshcz3o @LeftieStats @BritainElects Then why do you keep replying if you don’t care 😂

@jimbocrofts @JamesMarshcz3o @LeftieStats @BritainElects Are you literally obsessed with the fact someone doesn’t follow your view of the world? I have my view, you have yours. I don’t care how many think like either of us. Does it actually really matter? Social media. The biggest timewaster ever invented

@SeatsNotVotes @JamesMarshcz3o @LeftieStats @BritainElects Well you did. You said they’d get ignored. x.com/SeatsNotVotes/…

@jimbocrofts @JamesMarshcz3o @LeftieStats @BritainElects Did you actually read the guardian article? Polls only tell you one part of what’s happening. And the LibDems often buck trends and predictions. Here’s the article again .. theguardian.com/politics/2026/…

@SeatsNotVotes @JamesMarshcz3o @LeftieStats @BritainElects Lib Dem’s aren’t going to become the biggest party. If they were of course it would get mentioned because it would mean they’d made some significant gains. But they aren’t likely to make significant gains, reform and greens are.

@BritainisCool Public and media also not yet caught up with a multi party System and trying to see things through binary prisms. We now have 6/7 parties all with roles to play in England, Scotland & wales. And more in NI. The electoral system at Westminster has to change

We now live in a climate of ideological zealotry of left & right driven by USA narratives & tech. Long term @TheGreenParty @reformparty_uk won’t be attractive to the electorate. Simple solutions do not work and come unstuck. @ZackPolanski @Nigel_Farage you both have it wrong

@jimbocrofts @JamesMarshcz3o @LeftieStats @BritainElects I said that IF the LibDems did manage to become 2nd or 1st party of LG that It would no doubt be airbrushed from the narrative. If that did happen it would be a significant thing to mention regardless of the gains & losses overall.

@SeatsNotVotes @JamesMarshcz3o @LeftieStats @BritainElects But you literally commented complaining about the “narrative” not being about the Lib Dem’s.

@deuxvingarian based on some estimates. For many they’re self fulfilling prophecies. Say them long enough & loud enough…If these results happen, it’s important to report where the full tally ends up. Otherwise people get distorted impression that lab, lib, con are no longer players.

@SeatsNotVotes In what way is this misleading? It's not misleading to report e.g. a by-election result without reference to the whole composition of the HoC. Anyway, here's how the GB-wide picture would look after these results: LAB 4414 CON 3631 LD 3117 REF 2861 GRN 1501

2026 English Local Elections projection: Seats REF: 1953 (+1875) LAB: 780 (-1416) GRN: 757 (+587) LD: 600 (-63) CON: 585 (-549) Councils REF: 21 (+21) LAB: 20 (-47) GRN: 10 (+10) LD: 16 (+4) CON: 5 (-11) NOC: 61 (+23)

Has politics in the UK become more toxic?

@jimbocrofts @JamesMarshcz3o @LeftieStats @BritainElects What are you talking about? I’ve told you a million times I don’t give a flying F about ‘the story’. It’s about perspective and understanding the bigger picture of seats beyond next Thursday is important regardless of the so called ‘story’

@SeatsNotVotes @JamesMarshcz3o @LeftieStats @BritainElects What’s that have to do with next Thursdays local elections? The story will be the parties that gain and lose the most seats.

@jimbocrofts @JamesMarshcz3o @LeftieStats @BritainElects I’m not upset about anything. Why does everything have to be shock horror upset or celebration on social media. I’ve been pointing out there’s a bigger picture & we don’t get it in the hype. You’re starting to get obsessed now. Move on. It’s breakfast time, go have your Frosties

@SeatsNotVotes @JamesMarshcz3o @LeftieStats @BritainElects Because you’re the one upset they’re not in the main “narrative”.

@jimbocrofts @JamesMarshcz3o @LeftieStats @BritainElects Why is this all about the libdems all of a sudden? It’s not. They’re only part of the picture. Let go and go have a Saturday

@SeatsNotVotes @JamesMarshcz3o @LeftieStats @BritainElects You’re the one upset about a narrative because Lib Dem’s won’t gain enough.

@jimbocrofts @JamesMarshcz3o @LeftieStats @BritainElects You get a kick out of telling me that I can see. I’ve been around long enough to see how hype eventually withers away when the reality sets in. Ideological zealotry of left and right is not good for Britain

@SeatsNotVotes @JamesMarshcz3o @LeftieStats @BritainElects I will. Polls help forecast the result. You’re going to be very disappointed next week, the story will rightly be about Labour and Tory losses and Green and reform gains. Lib dems are an irrelevance.

@jimbocrofts @JamesMarshcz3o @LeftieStats @BritainElects I don’t. You’re arguing for the sake of it. Accept we think differently and move on or are you one of these ideological zealots who can’t cope with difference of opinion & has to bully people into group think ?

@SeatsNotVotes @JamesMarshcz3o @LeftieStats @BritainElects Why do you care that I think differently?

@jimbocrofts @JamesMarshcz3o @LeftieStats @BritainElects You’re led by the polls so enjoy your time following them, I’ll plough my own furrow thanks. Get over yourself

@SeatsNotVotes @JamesMarshcz3o @LeftieStats @BritainElects Why do you think the Lib Dem’s will become the second largest party? Your feels? Should people care more about your feelings than polls?
