I was the same but it's been better lately actually. The audience have been better since the election and the last few weeks they had mostly women on and it was much better.

I'm told there is an Andrew on the loose wanted in Congress!

Algerian sex offender mistakenly released from Wandsworth prison arrested - live updates Brahim Kaddour-Cherif was spotted by a member of the public in north London today after being freed in error on 29 October.

These weekly manhunts for escaped sex offenders are going to be so weird to look back on in a year or two πŸ˜†. Such a mad phenomenon.

Who will the general public need to help locate next week??

It's getting tiring isn't it countering all of these absolutist, fatalistic statements.

It's not worse! The Tories literally decimated the UK with 14+ years of ideological austerity which is reported to be the cause of over 300,000 people dying before their time! Unless Labour have aided in the deaths of hundreds of thousands in the year they've been in, it's definitely not worse!

Well yeah those things take a lot of time to turn around, what are you expecting?

Plenty of evidence that things are being improved:

Yup. I think they've already had that and we are starting to see the results of that already in their media strategy, not necessarily in polling yet though.

This is a beautiful example of the consistently very close synchronicity between Labour/Lib Dems and Conservative/Reform voters in their views.

It's two against two. Funny situation.

Unnecessary duplication!?

The left are very good at voting tactically to keep the right out. The Liberal Democrats are doing a great job at civilised debate and working with the government where necessary. I don't see the left fighting amongst themselves.

Erm…that's not how far-right populist movements work πŸ˜†. None of their supporters will notice nor care about that.

May as well just look at the other pollsters! There's just no reason to give this one any time given that the better ones exist.

It's a losing battle; people want to believe what they want to believe apparently. Age-old story!

Especially when you consider how many things are improving under Labour now.

They just got voted in last year and are making great progress with improving a bunch of essential things. Not sure why they would change leader?

Yep exactly. Incompetence makes absolutely no difference to support for far-right populist movements which is precisely why they are so dangerous and potent.

Don't say this in front of a Green supporter. πŸ˜…

But yeah that's not great is it. The only silver lining is that these voters skew heavily older. They are not the future.

Although anything within 3 points is indistinguishable from being level.

There will be some lag time before Labour's new attacking comms strategy takes effect…

Labour on the attack against ReFUKKK, for all you who believe nothing's being said by Starmer et al against them. Wake up wake up wake up...you're sleepwalking into msm propaganda, funded by dodgy anti-UK people.

Well yeah it's their new media strategy isn't it. People were complaining because they weren't doing this enough before and now they are BECAUSE of all the complaining.

When I saw that it was 262 releases last year!

Yes I agree it will improve under Labour with time especially with this new media focus.

Totally agreed that's one problem, a purely political one.

I'm also concerned with the issue of the mistaken releases.
