Independently of Hyer.
For all the logical sense it makes I think the idea that we can net gain on bringing back an LGR is bone headed stupid.
We'll never win on helping re-animate an LGR as an issue.
Admittedly, a game plan of neutralizing and marginalizing it as an issue would not be without costs. But those are controllable. Re-animating the LGR and handing it to the Conservatives as a gift is flat out dangerous.
But we've been over this a million times, and I seriously doubt that even the opinions on what is pragmatic ever budge an inch.
