I’d have thought it was worth mentioning that Merlin strategy shares an office with reform.

Puts a different spin on research conducted for a propaganda channel by office mates of the people they’re analysing

“The polls looked at 1,000 voters in 'Red Wall' Seats, defined as the 42 parliamentary constituencies the Conservative Party won in the 2019 General Election that had traditionally been held by the Labour Party.”

The polling by Merlin Strategy, found Tory support has more than halved since 2019. It looked at the 42 parliamentary constituencies the Tories took from Labour in 2019. “Labour won the majority of these seats back last year”

Yes. The Tory vote has switched to RefUK. RefUK are discontented Tories.
