I think Lee Anderson is right when he says his views represent those of a lot of people. Theyre mostly xenophobic bigots but somebody has to speak for the intolerant among us. And he does it very well.

It doesn’t matter that much what Sunak offers the public because in general people are turned off by him personally. He is seen as an untrustworthy, entitled little creep and the more visible he is the worse it will be for the conservatives. They have no track record to stand on and the guy out front trying to make the public think otherwise is an unlikable little rich man ….the tories cant turn this around.

Keep in mind the majority of your listeners are well right of centre in their views so their opinions of Starmer are unlikley to reflect the majority views a more balanced poll might give.

This is wonderful. If Sunak tacks right, he loses the centre, if he moves to the centre, he loses the Tory far-right. He's toast.

Voting lib, lab, con, is like an admission of insanity.

When are people going to acknowledge Brexit has had profound negative consequences for the economy that will dwarf the impact of other factors in the long term? That WAS the fault of the Tories, their donors, suited buddies, and client journalists. Oh, and let's not forget to thank Putin for his contribution.

I would be very worried about the red torys losing lots of seats to the workers party gb who got twice as much support over reform in the local elections
