Potentially the Lib Dems look like a good choice, but then again, this was just 2 political parties ago.

And even if their upper leadership can be trusted, is it a good idea to have by far the most pointedly naive political party I've ever seen to be constantly bodied by Reform, Conservatives, and maybe even Labour while the country financially collapses. It seems almost least helpful possible situation if the Lib Dems take the fall for successive political establishments financially sinking the country when they have the potential to be a proper government at last and they had nothing to do with it.

At the start of April there are about 20,000 seats, 1000 seats is 5% of that. Things are unusually turbulent this cycle, with a strong possibility of the government not being simply Labour or Conservative.
