But what he needs is the swing suburbs. Labour only won here because of Lib Dem voters lending their votes to Labour where efficient to do so. No chance that he gets this coalition back.

Or simply Westminster bubble. It reminds me of May trying to find a Brexit deal that her own far right MPs would like. It was clear that this was impossible. Yet, she kept on trying until they ousted her. I think the Westminster bubble is real and lets people lose grip of reality.
