not like ukip who also took labour voters." i think that seems to be the case. from the places where reform stood this time round and has stood previously, it's not a ukip—level phenomenon in taking votes from labour. in hindsight, ukip was a sort of early harbinger of what was happening with brexit. a sort of gateway, wasn't it? exactly. but reform is something a bit different. it does seem to be siphoning votes primarily from the conservatives, although still not probably siphoning votes in the quantity you'd expect if the national polls about where reform is were correct. i mean, ithink you're right to mention all the other parties as well, paddy, because one reason that the labour share in the projected national share and the tory share as well both look quite low in historical terms is because lots more people are using these elections to vote for parties beyond those two main parties. and i think that probably does speak to major levels of dissatisfaction with uk politics, with party politics, with who the parties are producing and offering to them. and

blackpool is particularly the kind of area that the brexit party, previously ukip, and now reform uk would aim for as the kind of target that if they were going to win anywhere it would be somewhere like that. more than two thirds of people, it is estimated, voted to leave in the brexit referendum. compared to the national average it is more white british than the rest of the country. it is less well off. people there have fewer educational qualifications. all of these combined tend to be fruitful areas for reform, but no one expects them to win in blackpool south. it is widely expected labour will do well there. the question is how many votes will conservatives get and how many will they lose at the expense of reform? and then the story that generates moving forward over the coming days and months as backbenchers discuss what the conservative party should or should not do to deal with the threat of reform in a general election will be a really interesting story as well. joe, stay with us. i want to get a little bit from newsnight�*s political editor nick watt who has had his ear t
