Most popular? Least unpopular?

May as well ask "Who is promising the most of what you want?" instead of "Who will deliver the most of what you want?".
I despair.

Neither. The Poll is rating whether they are doing a good job or bad job. Nothing to do with popularity.
Note that they did shift their methodology which gave a boost to the Tories of about 2 points

She did a bit better than normal at PMQs yesterday although her questions were all very predicatable and focussed on procedure which Starmer was able to deal with reasonably easily. I felt she could have thrown in a curve ball on her final question, asking about something completely different and messing up Starmer's prepared final response that basically made the outcome a score draw at best. Ed Davey did a better job in his question on the subject just by the way it was phrased.

It strikes as too much time and effort is being spent on what is little more than an amuse bouche before the main course of the May elections.

Dunno if this has been posted yet but Kemi Badenoch - on the subject of immigration, was saying yesterday on the telly that we need to pull out of the UNHCR. Same mantra as Reform.
Only difference being that the gammons will veer towards the white reform leader sh*t face than the black Tory.
Kemi, having benefitted from the (now withdrawn) birth right citizenship as her mother was from Nigeria.

Haha, this is so Badenoch, when told that Lincolnshire isn't in the North East...

I wonder why it is that local radio seems to be more prepared to eviscerate the bullshitting politicians than the national channels (TV and radio). They demolished Truss a few years ago.

You can get away with a lot more on local radio. Alan Partridge is only partly satirical.

Here's the Trussicide, if anyone missed it at the time. Or wants a giggle now.

I bet she did that “it is near the north-east” in that condescending tone implying it’s the interviewer who is the idiot for suggesting she has made an error.
