//To say the first few months of Sir Keir Starmer's Government have been something of an omnishambles would be an understatement. This is a period most new governments enjoy as a honeymoon.

Instead, polling suggests voters already think the previous (and wildly unpopular) Tory government was preferable.// - so after 3 months voters already miss the Tories! Who'd have thunk it?

I don't miss the tories

[Canary42]

There's a Tory running the Labour Party at present . bloody Blair all over again.

[Peter Pedant]

the last of the Tory admin -  I dont what them  back either - - or the Blessed Boris - let him bonk somewhere  else

[naomi24]

Yes, Labour have blown it - but it comes as no surprise to me.  Sunak told the electorate not to surrender to Starmer - that's exactly what he said.  They should have listened.

Have a day off canary, this is real Labour, not how you remember it clearly but real Labour it is. For one thing Blair introduced the WFA, 2TK is taking it away. I never thought I'd miss St Tony but war porkies aside he was infinitely better than what we have now.

"Instead, polling suggests..."

I note the article does not give a link to any of these polls. Could it have been their own polls they refer to, which, of course, will have been reacted to by Express readers in the main.

As i have said before on these pages, i used to take the Mirror and Express on a Daily Basis and am well aware of the loaded questions put to their readers by way of polling opinions.

If anyone has a link to any of these polls, i'd be interested in reading them.

I Certainly don't miss the Tories Trousering Tax payers cash.

The Mirror and the Express?  Goodness you are a gluten for punishment!

You are correct though Polls can be conducted to get the answer required hence why they are not accurate.  They do however indicate trends and the trend shown from many other sources is showing the Labour party to be deeply unpoular, in particualr S2TKS now is mins 36 I believe.  Unheard of in first 100 days.

Well obviousy nort, plenty of Labour on the freebie bandwagon now to make up for your loss.

Remiond me, how much did the last PM take then?

How about the venal Starmer trousering Alli's largesse?

[Deskdiary]

12.41 - other than Clarion, the usual subjects have been completely schtum about all the Labour freebies. Funny that.

[gramps85]

Gulliver.  Did Starmer have extra large pockets put into his Lord Alli suits so that he had more room to trouser all of his freebies?

the austerity programme introduced by the tories was far more cruel degrading and destructive than the winter fuel allowance cut. i will never feel anything but disgust and contempt for tories who spent 14 years championing such measures and only now pretend to understand or care that cuts to public spending can have lethal consequences. 
 

i have said several times that i strongly dislike starmer but nobody should be missing the tories. it was like the whole country was at the mercy of an extremely mentally unwell parent.
