Helpful in general, but I found the last graph confusing. Happily the main points were in the text, but I still couldn't work out the graph. (I usually love graphs, and my work involved them.)
Hey, thanks for this and apologies it's unclear - always a hard one to visualise clearly. There's a bit more context in the report but essentially the graph is the results from an RCT experiment - it shows you the top policies which most influenced the vote of 'winnable left' and 'winnable right' segments of the public. It's the top 10 of about 40 policies we tested. So people saw these policies at random in a theoretical Labour platform, and in the analysis phase we isolate the impact. The X axis is the impact of each policy on the Labour vote share - not huge movements but you do see decent ones, and as importantly they tend to work across both segments.

A fascinating study, as ever from you!
Thanks Mark, means a lot!
