How the assistants handled this voter's main question
Changed party field; caregiver-income dimension becomes explicit
Edition 3 brings Opportunity back after its omission in the Edition 2 primary answer and connects specialist school support with parents’ lost paid hours and caregiver income support. Labour, separately profiled in both earlier answers, is not named in the new answer. The coalition is grouped around academic basics and school choice, reducing differentiation within it.
The excerpts compare answers to this voter’s main question on 12 October 2026 and 16 October 2026. The figures above include all produced answers for this situation. Each extract opens its dated original answer.
