Links aren't very gulliver corby :-)

Speaking of Corby(n), I wonder what he makes of it.

If it goes on at this rate we'll be at russian referendum levels ...
Hurrah!

I’d do the same for Gulliver, ich. ;o)
Yes Labour's in a good place and we had a good conference. The gap may widen even more after the Cons conference as divisions will show. But while some here find all the bad news so funny they wet themselves am hoping for the news to get better for the economy inflation financial markets energy etc.. I'm sure Labour will still win whatever in 2024

Believe me although I support Labour I want this madness to end. It's pretty serious.
my guess is they'll have dumped Truss and invited Sunak back by then. Not everything he did was ideal but he was a million miles smarter than the ones in charge now.
I wonder how many of you are aware of how yougov polls are conducted. They go out solely to people who are signed up to the polling system, so are by no means a random choice as good polls should be.

And I can confirm that from my observations and experience as a contributor that there is a left-wing bias in the "membership", so this result from that organisation is hardly surprising.

I wanted Liz Truss as I thought she'd be better for Ukraine but when I saw her on one of the debates with Sunak I was appalled.
I thought she'd moderate when she no longer had to appeal to the grassroots for votes, but when Kwarteng became chancellor I feared the worst. This is spectacularly not the time for them to be doing what they are doing, if there ever is a good time.
YouGov was founded by Nadhim Zahawi the Conservative election candidate. I doubt it has a left wing bias.
Why would Canary make that up? Or is he another secret Tory now. mmm.
-- answer removed --
CANARY, is YouGov not a member of the British Polling Council?

Members are "organisations who can show to the satisfaction of the BPC that the ***sampling methods and weighting procedures used are designed to accurately represent the views of all people within designated target groups (such as all adults, or voters etc)."*** [emphasis added]

Kinnock was up against a worthy opponent.
Starmer will be up against Mrs Flip-Flop….if she lasts that long.

Did you hear her interviews today? Zero conviction in her words and sounded more like an 8 year old who’d just been caught with their hand in the cookie jar.
She’s the polar opposite of Thatcher, the Tories are toast, a former 80 seat majority wasted on a charlatan followed by an obviously inept chancer.
Place your bets! Lol.
Question Author
I don't think she can survive.
Often PMs and chancellors are at odds and the former can play off against the latter, but Liz and Kwasi are wedded at the hip.
Good for Labour- its about time they won something, and at least this little confidence boost won't allow them to trash the country.
From Sky News:

Even after a successful Labour conference, the results of YouGov's poll for The Times are stunning. "You're joking! That's an annihilation!" one senior Tory MP told Sky.

At least one Tory is in touch with the truth and not living in his own, tiny little world, shut off from reality. Lol.
unfortunately labour's polling is entirely because of how bad the government is rather than how good they are

would still prefer them to the wretched tories but i would also prefer getting scabies to getting pancreatic cancer
TTT @ 19,26.The difference is this time , Labour ain't gonna get hammered.,,,,, But the Tories are.
Hammered right across the HOC onto the ,
........Opposition benches . Oh happy day. IWPMSL.

//Good for Labour- its about time they won something, and at least this little confidence boost won't allow them to trash the country.//

Ah, spoken just like…well, we know.

Trash the country? How do you trash a car crash, make a mess of a catastrophe, set fire to a burnt-out wreck, exactly?
How could Labour be accused of trashing anything in light of the current state of affairs?
You need to stop habitually blaming the opposition party and try to explain and justify why your Party has got the country and politics into the state it’s presently in before deriding the alternatives.
Tora @ 19.26:

//In 1985 Kinnochio was miles ahead in the polls, he got hammered in 1987. 2 years is a long time in politics.//

I agree. Labour are getting ahead of themselves, never mind the Tories. The polls look great. I hope they stay like that, and Labour win the next election. But lots of things can turn the polls round in 2 years. As I keep saying, I don't think Labour will win the next election. Nor will the Tories. It'll be a hung parliament.
