Wow, someome has done it. I'm slightly sceptical of the data behind this map but if anywhere near accurate this is astonishing!
Replying to @Dunadan9
I've made one here using the maps by @BritainVotesNow of course.

Maybe because Wales qualified for Objective 1 European funding as one of the poorest regions of Europe before devolution!

Wales' Finance Minster's told LBC News there'll have to be a "significant realignment" of the budget, to deliver the Welsh Government's priorities - around health and childcare. Elin Jones has confirmed she'll set out a supplementary budget on June 23rd.

The European mind understands it perfectly. This is what imperial decadence looks like: public institutions converted into branded spectacle, civic memory replaced by adrenaline theater, and the People’s House turned into a content backdrop for regime propaganda. The joke is not that Europe cannot comprehend it. The joke is that America no longer recognizes what it is becoming.
The European mind cannot comprehend this

A working class woman from Townhill, Swansea on the side of normal working people. On the other side we have @FrancescaOBMS Reform's privately educated elitist middle class woman. I know which side I'm on.
😱🤔Reform heckle and laugh while I talk about being a new mum and the cost of childcare

It bears emphasizing that Ant Middleton is egregiously racist even by radical right standards. He thinks even *third*-generation immigrants - that is, people whose parents were born in the UK - should be barred from high office. He should be anathema to any mainstream politician.
Ant Middleton is an unrepentant racist who doesn’t think I should be allowed to serve in Government because of my heritage, despite having been born here. He doesn’t think Zia Yusuf should be allowed to either. He’s also a violent thug who served a prison sentence after being convicted of assaulting two police officers. Hardly a surprise then to see Rob Kenyon endorsed by one of his “heroes” in Makerfield, so desperate are Reform to stop haemorrhaging support to Restore Britain.

He's literally using his insane wealth right now to fund and amplify the far right in the UK.
What difference does it make to your life?

Would that be the Reform UK whose MP's voted against upskirting, drink spiking and stalking women laws?
If you care about the safety of women and girls, there is only one party willing to say what needs to be said and do what needs to be done. Only Reform will put women’s safety first.

Obama is easily the most bookish, intellectual president of recent times. Normally, that's something Republicans would weaponize to depict him as an elitist, unmanly nerd, but they're so racist, they have to pretend he's actually an airhead who can't speak without a teleprompter.
These guys spin the most arbitrary fantasies. Obama was such a reader that even as president he kept up w the latest literary fiction. A follower told me of an Obama cabinet member who turned him on to Liu Cixin.

Americans really need to sit this out, literally no understanding. 🫠 The people you're celebrating are British. They'll be burning effigies of Irish people and Irish tricolors on massive bonfires while singing about being up to their knees in Fenian blood in a few weeks time.
How many times throughout history do the Irish need to prove that you shouldn’t fuck with them?

If there is a group that doesn't deserve thugs terrorising its streets it is the people of Belfast. Their city bears the scars of decades of violence and unrest. Shame on the louts subjecting them to more and the cretins encouraging them.
