It's a rout - is the old order on the way out?

Interesting how low Labour's rating is from those who votes for them. Something I think Labour should be very concerned about as once somebody decides to switch support it can be hard to persuade them to switch back again. ie decide to fitch your support for Labour and mist will need either new party being supported to really fück up badly or Labour to do better than exceptionally.

Conservative rating amongst Conservative voters low but maybe dealing with a very small sample size? (there aren't many Conservative voters left).

It shows Labour voters finding the Greens a little more to their liking.

I can see the Greens being a refuge for Corbynites: anti-internationalists (the new leader wants to withdraw from NATO) and populist.

I reckon it's Labour voters finding the current labour incarnation particularly unpalatable. Hell will freeze over before I vote for them.

I thought elections were not until this summer and it's just one candidate suggesting withdrawing from NATO. Have I missed the election (and result) or missed something else?

Oops... might have got ahead of myself. In that case, maybe they'll pick someone who has broader appeal.

I might easily be behind events. Very busy painting house, long days and exhausted by evening so I'm probably missing a lot of news.

No, you're more on it than me. I suspect that Polanski's populism is eclipsing the profile of the other two contenders.

Which party would you vote for if there was a General Election on now?

Very tricky as none of the parties appear to gave any policies at the moment.
We know that politicians can’t buck the market, so you have to vote for someone with at least some financial competence.
How anyone can vote for Reform is beyond me. They stand for nothing and don’t have a competent financial strategy. They would tank the market quicker than Truss.

I guess you're answering for yourself rather than on behalf of Bobz.

Hardly surprising

British are sick of the old parties

It's quite telling that Tory voters quite like Reform, but Reform voters are not too fond of the Tories.

I love the way you actually think that your opinion is also everyone else's opinion. It's all the more spectacular being as you are an actual moron.
