Luke Tryl, director of the More in Common research organisation which aims to tackle division in society, said “organic” tactical voting was evident as voters backed the party that had the best chance of defeating the Tories in each seat, rather than the result of any formal pact.
“Voters are very savvy, that will worry the Conservatives because tactical voting at that scale repeated at a general election could cost them 30 to 40 seats,” he said.

Luke Tryl, UK director of research group More In Common, said the Selby result confirmed “the Conservatives are in a very deep hole”, while Uxbridge “probably paints a picture of what the Conservative strategy is going to be” in a general election. He suggested the Tories could point to failings within Labour administrations across the UK.
Mr Tryl said: “They are going to be running the Uxbridge strategy on a national scale, identifying those wedges, I expect them to be talking a lot more about Labour administrations in Wales, in London, in Manchester, and looking for examples of potential extra costs that will put on people, similar to what they did with Ulez.
