TRIGGERnometry · Live Reaction to Makerfield By-Election with Dan Hodges and Julia Hartley-Brewer · 19 Jun 2026 podcast

know how parliament works but i i think that just as with by-elections and with local elections that voters minds get focused at that time and yes you'll get tactical voting from the left absolutely and you'll also get tactical voting on the right and the main issue that comes up i think on the right now is will there be a coalition of some sort will there be some sort of

Either just a, you know, you stand in that seat, we won't really make much effort in that seat, but leave us this seat over here, kind of just quiet behind the scenes, unofficial deal between Tories and reform.

Are they in a position, both of them, to make that deal quietly?

You know, even if it's not even stated in actual words or on paper.

and that there is likely to be many think a coalition from the Tories and reform after any general election.

I think that I've been in this world for a very long time watching this very closely as Dan has as well.

And I remember in 2010, when we had the announcements, when we had the coalition government between the Libs and the Tories, it's the end of two party politics.

In 2015, David Cameron won of the majority.

And then, you know, there's all over and it's all going to change.

And then and then we had Boris Johnson in 2019.

Well, massive majority.

He's going to be in two terms, by the way, another very charismatic.

successful mayor only lasted two years imagine that and then again you know it was the end of it was the end of uh you know all these different coalitions it was back to two-party politics and it changes again i think that voters and our country are in and political parties are in so much flux right now i think there is no i don't think you can predict what happens in a week's time

let alone the idea we can picture what's going to happen in two years' time.

I think that's a fool's errand, I really do.

Well, that's the crucial thing, isn't it?

I mean, again, harking back, because there are so many echoes of the 24 general election, him on the front cover, the words change.

And we never really found out really what that change was going to be to.

I mean, I'm still two years in.

I'm still not quite sure what their plan was.
