For me, a couple of things are clear;

Firstly, Labour are nailed on to win the next General Election. No Tory politician would bet their kids inheritance on them winning.

Secondly, local elections are a really really bad way to assess how a general election would go. Turnout is paltry, there's different issues at play, there is perhaps six months to go, different candidates, lots of places didnt vote, it's being compared to the 2021 results which were a Tory high water mark etc etc etc.

That said, a few things could get change things. I don't think they can change the result, but they can change the scoreline.

Has the local elections been enough of a kicking? People often like to punish govts and local elections are a way to do with less riding on it.

Will the economy improve further?
Possibly. I think the reality is the era of high inflation and energy prices are in the past. Fingers crossed. That will only help the govt even if the reality isnt anything spectacular.

Will the legal and illegal immigration issues come under control?
Big issue. Will be a bounce if they can. If they can't it leaves the door open for Reform or for Labour but Labour will then have to deal with the problem with limited likelihood of success.

What happens with Reform and the Workers Party of Britain?
No explanation needed really. Both could take big chunks from the main parties in various different location

Will any game changing shock occur?
No one was Covid, Ukraine etc. Surprises can change things.
