It’s possible Brexit party (and UKIP in 2015) helped the Tories by taking Labour Leave votes that were reluctant to go Tory.
Or not, I think that may have been the case in 2015 but not this time.
Farage actually offered to withdraw from almost all seats if the Tories would withdraw from about 50 or 60 in the North of England were Farage thought his party could do well. Johnson delcined that offer.
Hopefully it get’s done and there is no need for a Brexit party.
Sounds like it will be bad in Scotland (SNP taking back seats Tories won in 2017) and London, but otherwise good.

Thank you to everyone across our great country who voted, who volunteered, who stood as candidates. We live in the greatest democracy in the world.
None of what you people are replying to me with changes the FACT that Farage threatened Boris that he better do his version of Brexit or he would contest every seat.
Looks like Brexit Party won ZERO seats.
