However, Sunak’s own personal ratings have improved marginally, with 25 per cent of voters saying that he would make the best prime minister — up three points — compared with 34 per cent who support Sir Keir Starmer, the Labour leader.
Tory strategists hoped to use the conference to differentiate Sunak from his predecessors and portray him as the “change” candidate at the next election.
The polling suggests that this has been partially successful, with about a third of voters (30 per cent) saying the plans laid out by Sunak do represent a change from the past, compared with 54 per cent who disagree.
Just under half (45 per cent) said a Labour government would represent change, compared with 37 per cent who said it wouldn’t.
After seeing that bizarre part of the Penny Mordant speech where she kept repeating something about fighting the fight, or similar, its a surprise that the tory rating is not reducing. She came across as a nutter.
Gosh you might be right. Not a nutter much at all. Very reasonable. Lets revisit.
“Stand up and fight.
Because when you stand up and fight, the person beside you stands up and fights.
And when our party stands up and fights, the nation stands up and fights.
And when our nation stands up and fights, other nations stand up and fight.
They stand up and fight for the things upon which the progress of humanity depends. Freedom.
That is what Conservatives do. That is what this nation does.
Have Courage.
Bring Hope.
Stand up and fight.”
What an absolute bag of rabble-rousing, tub-thumping pish. Not a single meaningful policy or tangible political idea. Nothing that says “this is what a Tory government will do”. Nothing.
Funnily enough I prefer the song by James - “Sit Down”
totally out of character, what was she thinking!
