In addition to the global trends, this was a total failure on the part of anti-Brexit crowd to unite against Boris.

They did it on the Leave side with BXP standing down in Tory districts.

LibDems and Labour failed to get along in the same way.

Democrats in the US have to take note. Moderate Dems, progressives, moderate Republicans must wholly unite against Trump or assure re-election.

That of course is directed at all parties, [SNIPPED]

I think that a lot depends on the specific seats, but generally yes. Lots of Lib Dem - Tory marginals where Labour should’ve stepped aside. But a fair number that the Lib Dems shouldn’t have contested.
These are the issues you face with a multiparty FPTP system. In Canada this isn't as much of an issue because of the near irrelevance of the New Democrats outside of BC.

Interestingly in Sunderland Central: Conservative + Brexit is greater than Labour (15,372 + 5,047 v. 18,336).

Given the results so far, I wouldn’t be shocked if the DUP loses South Antrim to the Alliance, too. That Alliance result in Strangford is something...
DUP barely holds Belfast East 20,874 v. 19,055 for the Alliance.
