1970 UK General Election

[Leftbehind]

New Union, I suppose.  

Their standing in only fourteen constituencies stops the splitting of the Left vote, at least.

[Leftbehind]

Oh, sorry, misread. 140 candidates is enough at least to reward their votes and stop them being wasted.

[Leftbehind]

The 1980's in reverse, I guess.

Given Labour barely won the last election, I think the Tories may sweep up until this split's resolved - hopefully Bennites will realise this and head back, in a strengthened position. 

[Leftbehind]

Easily New Union.

Easy principally, tactically it's a nightmare.

[Leftbehind]

Won't even have the voter fatigue that seen the poor-third voters (SDP) gradually returning to main-opposition-vehicle (Labour) with each election/Tory landslide to pin our hopes on.

[Leftbehind]

Cynic further proves that the only way to have interesting Atlas elections is to have a far left party siphon away votes from a centre-left party.

How many seats did the Tories win where Labour + New Union > Conservative?

The left & right in both this and the last election (we/a)re neck and neck - if anything, even though the seat figures for the left were more generous than I was expecting, I fear the right will win consistently until this is resolved. Wait and see, I suppose.
