Conservatives' alarm grows over threat of tactical voting in safe seats

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

62% : Issues such as Brexit, the policy of sending asylum seekers to Rwanda and blaming Labour for train strikes, are less likely to keep them on side.
42% : With the party silent on Brexit and now re-emerging as the place for protest votes, these seats could be back in play.
41% : After the 2019 Tory election win, British politics was obsessed with the concept of "red wall" seats - a band of previously Labour-held seats predominantly located across the north and the Midlands where Brexit and a concern about Jeremy Corbyn helped the Conservatives break through.
40% : These are seats that typically voted for Brexit and some now have big majorities.
