Not very big, and not very Cleverly

Not very big, and not very Cleverly

What a time to be alive, never did I think I would be doing a thread header on whether the Home Secretary called a town a shithole. I cannot see any next cabinet minister to leave/Cleverly exit date markets but if there were I suspect I’d be backing Cleverly to survive this story. In politics perceptions sometimes matter than the facts and this will cement the belief that the Tories are full of arrogant out of touch elitists even if…

Can Hunt turn Tory fortunes around?

Can Hunt turn Tory fortunes around?

A lot politically is resting on today’s budget This is almost certainly the last budget before the general election and Hunt needs to get some good headlines on the way his proposals will impact on voters. This is always a tough one and LAB will be working hard this afternoon to find the negative messages. Remember the “Dementia Tax” not long ago. Just getting some LAB leads down to single figures would be a big boost for the Tories. The…

Bad news for the we want Boris back crew

Bad news for the we want Boris back crew

I’m not sure the public would want Boris Johnson to run a whelk stall let alone the country. One of the more cutting remarks I heard about Boris Johnson, which turns out to be more accurate with each passing day, is that Boris Johnson is what plebs think an intellectual looks and sounds like, throwing a classical historical reference or a bit of Latin doesn’t mean you’re clever. When it comes to Boris Johnson return as Prime Minister, alea jacta…

When will the Tories poll 30% or more again?

When will the Tories poll 30% or more again?

The last poll that the Tories on 30% or higher was the More In Common, conducted on the 14th to the 16th of October. Being stuck in the 20s for a month constitutes a rut. If the Autumn statement doesn’t improve the Tory vote share then I suspect then the next opportunity will be the budget next spring which I expect to be a tax cut bonanza. Make your prediction in the comments on when the Tories will be back…
