There was a piece on Sky saying the most likely outcome was a labour minority govt, seems less likely than an outright majority to me but if it is going to be that close I think issues like that will make a bigger difference than him bleating on about lower inflation and a small reduction in IRs.
The Sky thing was highly misleading as they merely extrapolated local election results to GE, when voting is very different in local elections. Try voting for the "residents association" come GE time. Labour are on course for a very large majority.
Have Tory MPs tried putting their underpants on their head and two pencils up their nose?

Mark Harper on Sky news Insisting the public hasn't stopped listening to the party, we just need to "keep getting our message out".
elling voters they're wrong, you're not listening is not a winning look but full on reality denial is very Conservative 2024 mode, Election now. What possible purpose can six more months of this fruitloopery serve?

She's quite mad.
Why is she even on the programme? Do separate Tory party factions get their on own slot now? She's quite mad.
Doesn’t she realise, that nobody votes Tory because Far Right Loons like her were allowed anywhere near government.
Sue Ellen & her type are to blame entirely for the mess they are in today.
And at the other end of the spectrum you have people with a bit of class and dignity even in defeat

Yep. Good chap, pretty selfless compared to every other politician I have met. He did a lot of good for the West Midlands and will be a major loss. His drive on housing in particular was notable. https://x.com/andy4wm/status/1786861060764410287

Incidentally the incoming WM Mayor was very complimentary about Andy Street as well. Very civilised.
Someone hit the nail on the head earlier, people are not voting Tory because of Rishi Sunak, but because of all the chaos of the Johnson and Truss eras. Literally nothing anyone can do will undo that. The public have given them enough chances and are fed up. They no longer believe that things will improve under a Tory government, and evidence suggests they're right.
The one thing Suella did say on TV this morning which was correct was about the government not delivering on people's priorities. There is no discussion on parliament about the state of the NHS, very little about the amount of sewage being pumped into the sea, instead worrying about things like Rwanda which most people don't care about.

He has also cautioned Sunak against any further move to the right. Decent, intelligent chap.
Few and far between in the current crop of Tory MPs who only appear to be interested in keeping on the gravy train now matter what. Slightly off topic, what were the people who voted for Houchen in Teesside thinking of? Maybe he signed them all up to his get rich quick scheme along with all his mates.
