No - because such a poll doesn't reflect what will happen in the individual constituences. (oh, why do I bother?)

One can hope. Maybe after a term of Reform governing there could be party mergers. The long existing name would likely be adopted then.

Yes but don't forget gully the cons could scrap a few more points from the bottom of the barrel. From today some could have a massive windfall in their pay packets, on average it could be £450 a year. The reduction in NI will give you £37.50 a month to pass on to your energy company. WOW :0)

Due to the Conservatives Abysmal poll rating ,it looks like they are heading for a "shattering defeat " which now seems even more certain to happen after this latest poll.

Wonder who the cons will blame when they are stamped into the ground. Will it be Boris,Truss or Sunak ?...It really doesn't matter a lot, because they will have at least ten years to lick their wounds and try to regroup after the ..Great Defeat..

The Reform party might poll reasonably well but they won't win any seats: their vote will be spread. As I keep saying they'd do better concentrating on a few seats but their current strategy appears to be to try to scare the government into more right wing policies between now and the election

I am preparing for a Labour Government by practising taking the knee, a bit difficult with my arthritis, but I don't want to be breaking the law that they will introduce to make it compulsory. I am also examining my wife to see if she has a penis, because the Labour Party say that some women do have one. I will be asking my grandchildren and great grandchildren what pronoun they would like to be known as. Will ask the dog and cat as well.

I am trying to make sure that I do cover all of the beliefs that Starmer and Rayner have been spouting for the last couple of years.

There is speculation that Nigel Farage could take over as leader of The Reform Party......If he does...that could mean the end of the Cons for a very long time..🤣.

nicebloke1

11.41 Only spouting for the last couple of years, the cons have been spouting for 13 now, mainly between themselves thats why we are in such a mess, not to mention no end of changes within number 10, and now theres talk of yet another clown to be selected in place of Sunak.

Some top political analysis here 🙄

And no suggestions of how Labour will put things "right". Assuming they get the chance.

Simon Clark forecasts that Sunak is leading his party into a massacre.....at the GE...Hope he is right.

drmorgans

And even Clark's friends and political allies say he is wrong. On bloke's opinion.

You're celebrating rather early gulliver. It's going to be an anticlimax when Labour do take over.

Sunak is trying to buy the election with tax cuts.Just another attempt to pull the wool over voters eyes.In fact since 2019 this parliament has seen overall taxation rise the fastest since records began.If British economy was growing he might be able to make tax cuts but it Ain't..Poor productivity. an ageing population increased demand on public services etc ,etc.
