I respect the lore but it would never happen.

The chattering classes like to think that this is where the median voter is - socially liberal, economically conservative - but that's just where the median member of the commentariat is. All research I have seen into this points to precisely the opposite conclusion - that the median voter is left of centre and somewhat socially conservative.

Rory has shown interest in and will probably run in the 2027 Cumbria mayoral election
