There'll be a few like that but I I seriously think the likeliest thing is they've just misread the question. As someone who works in market research, the survey respondents they do not love to pay attention

I imagine most of the 6% of Labour supporters who said Lib Dem misread the question but I do quite the idea that there's a cabal of Labour voters in the country who are really angry with Ed Davey above all else.

I think I preferred it when he ate books when he was owned

In fairness, extremely relatable

If the Greens start coming first is he going to count consecutive poll leads.

As Maria Sobolewska and I first said in Brexitland, the legacy parties under FPP are like Tinkerbell - they need belief to survive. if people cease to believe they see the best and only options, they can die fast. Is this the moment Labour’s Tinkerbell dies?

God alive lads make up your minds. The Muslims are voting Green. The Muslims are being pandered to by the Labour Party. There's not that many Muslims.

That’s a lot of Muslims

I, for one, welcome our new Green overlords and remind them I can be deployed to explain niche committee rules in the underground participatory democracy mines.

To some extent I think he does just personally believe a lot of nonsense too. Probably a lot more than we get to see

The main thing we learned about Sunak as a politician during his premiership was simply that he's too busy for this shit. A lesser politician would have stayed for the D-day commemoration for instance.

Though it should be noted that if you disagree with the show the least you could maybe not do is tell the host how much of a fan you are. That tends to send a different signal

Yes, agreed. It'll also be hard for the Greens, or anyone else, to flood a single constituency with volunteers in quite the same way.

I think the thing is he probably does attract some non voters, but they're probably already ones who voted Reform in 2024. But Reform are REALLY good at energising non voters against them.

I think probably a bit from column a and a bit from column c but the blocs have changed size in fairness since 2024, it's just MOST of the movement has been intra-bloc

This is not about being 'a sore loser' it's about being the biggest sore loser in history.

It's all about the alliances you don't respect.

In which I reply to someone with a blacked out name that they are missing the joke and they inform me that in-jokes are virtue signals β€œused often by the far right.”

Kinda want to frame it.
