Matt Partridge nearly prompted me to take up active Twitter again, but I just about held off.

The OP calls the report "political not academic" on the basis of what he sees as shoddy methods. He doesn't say to Goodwin that it must be political and not academic because the Legatum Institute are involved. Had he done that, then this would be a fair point of Matty's. Note how Matty doesn't show that the OP's report for these social democrats has shoddy and political methods.

At this point, the OP doubtless loses the will to live and doesn't bother to reply. Matty sticks up the tumbleweeds. Silence speaks volumes, as with Peter Baxendale-Thomas,

It's like those here's how Donald Trump can become Presidential articles which ignored the fact that Trump was incapable of growing into the role just like Johnson is incapable of becoming Prime Ministerial.

Who are these wokes Johnson has spent the last year speaking to; interior designers?
they got an establishment politician who spent much of the last year speaking to the values of metro cosmopolitans who represent neither a majority of the Conservative electorate nor the country.

He doesn’t elaborate much on the metro cosmos influence and widens the net to Southerners. He misses an important point about the Tory blue collar vote, Basildon man doesn’t want to pay to regenerate the north. Neither do gin and Jag stock broker belts. Matt will find support for leveling up the North among Green Party wokes in Lewisham.
more than a few 2019ers who simply do not believe their southern, affluent and typically Oxbridge-educated colleagues are seriously invested in levelling-up the Red Wall, who they say resent the new focus on the north, who look at their party’s new blue-collar voters with a combination of bemusement and snobbery and who, they say, remain much too wedded to the old conservatism of the Eighties.
