Is Zach Polanski the same?

When it comes to it, the Green voters, did they just turn out and vote?

Or did he give some of them pause for thought, which might help Labour hang on in some of those inner London areas?

So it's really interesting.

And it is a sort of tale from those conversations of three different elections.

So I think we visited 40 different parts of the UK to do focus groups in the run up to these elections or 40 parts of Great Britain.

In England, it really is that insurgent election.

I've just been so struck by how many people have told me the same thing, which is, I work really hard, I do the right thing, it doesn't seem to pay off.

And some people say that the system is rigged in favour of billionaires and they're going green.

Others will say it's illegal migrants or benefit claimants, they tend to be going to reform.

But the central diagnosis of something not quite being right is consistent.

You then go up to Scotland,

And I think it's fair to say I have never met people less enthusiastic about an election than in Scotland.

I mean, in fact, I nicknamed it the Meh election because people, just nationalists would say, well, yeah, we want the SNP to win, but we don't think John Sweeney is very exciting and they seem a bit tired.

Unionists would say we really want the SNP out, but we don't like any of our options.

And this almost like harking back.

I mean, people would say, you know, remember we used to have Nicola Sturgeon, Ruth Davidson, Alex Salmond, Kezia Dugdale, almost like there was this sort of golden age of Scottish politics that had been lost.

And then you move to Wales and it's another different picture.

And what comes out really strongly there, particularly amongst people who are going to Plaid,

is this sense of change.
