Right wing 'traditional' Labour voters in the north may not vote for them but now they don't have to worry about those votes going to the Tories.  Reduced majorities all round but Labour probably won't lose many seats and could make major gains in Conservative marginals in the South and west. And as a anti-Brexit party with a cat in hell's chance of winning may even take some traditional Lib Dem seats.  However this can only happen if Corbyn is dropped.
