Funny when you could put the entire SDLP in that.

There are pre-Drumcree polls in here, so we expect SF's chances to improve.

How unionist preferences have shifted after Drumcree is less clear.

Based on the recent LucidTalk polling, If an election was held today, the DUP would lose at least half of their Assembly seats. Sinn Fein, the SDLP, Alliance and the Greens would have a majority of 51. All 3 main Unionist parties on the same number of seats. No clear dFM role.

Given the DUP's penchant for kicking themselves in the face, were this to be the outcome, my guess is they would refuse to nominate a dFM. We could likely see an Executive formed without the DUP included. SDLP would probably re-enter government.

Recent LucidTalk and More In Common polls point to ex-Alliance switchers being more likely to support nationalist parties over unionist parties (with SDLP favoured over SF). Also, Alliance won't benefit from nationalist tactical voting in 2027 like in 2024 (e.g. Lagan Valley).

Still,Reform only '1%' of Elected UK MPs compared to 80% of progressives from Lab,Lib,Green,Nationalists,SDLP, Alliance & Independents.

It's shocking Lab govt e.g Lisa Nandy & OFCOM for 2.5 yrs has 'hidden away' while broadcasters like BBC,GBNews,LBC,Sky massively platform & amplify that 1% MPs!

SF's poll numbers rebound after Drumcree, they're within the margin of error of 2022 having been well down. The SDLP are also doing well.

The DUP's struggles continue, with both the UUP and TUV doing very well.

Alliance are struggling.

thing that might save the SDLP is the balancing being thrown off by too many SF voters listing Michelle O’Neill as their first preference, for understandable reasons
