    Oh Jeepers ... Alastair Campbell worries that the UK is being hoodwinked by pollsters ! Ha ha ha. Here is a man who made public manipulation his brand and we're having to listen to this twaddle ? The only reason he's out today is because there's a slump away from Labour and he's trying to shore up their vote. He, even more than Blair, made me despise politics in the late 90's/00's. He went from offering everyone the world on a plate to telling everyone they had to be realistic, to ignoring public opinion in one career ... and isn't that not exactly where we are today with Keir Starmer ? Blair and Campbell have their blood soaked fingers all over this election ... and everyone should just think about that before casting their very valuable votes.

    What Campbell isn't acknowledging is that the electorate is much more volatile and less tribal when it comes to political allegiances. In 2019 safe Labour seats went Conservative. People voted Conservative who would never have dreamed of doing so hitherto. This is now happening in reverse where no Conservative seat is safe. The Labour Party was lucky last time that it retained its grip in urban ethnic areas. The Conservatives now have no bedrock of support except among the wealthier old people.

    He kind of shows his true colours here as an establishment tool. When thinking of him, not as a Labour man, but as an establishment man, his sentiments suddenly begin to make sense. His priorities are establishment power, not party. This is why he can not stomach the idea of Tory extinction because the Tories, while they may be political opponents of Labour, are an establishment party at the end of the day.

    I supported Reform from the day they started and was mocked by family / friends. They now tell me that they are thinking of voting Reform. A tremendous surge of support for Reform is growing as people are starting to question the bull spouted by the WEF influenced LibLabCon establishment, BBC and mainstream media.

    He hasn't factored in that the last election was a one issue election which the tories would not have won without it being billed as brexit election for months.. the second referendum vote actually won but was spit over 4 parties so the tories got a majority... Since then more and more people have changed their minds on brexit and even lifelong tory voters are disillusioned.

      @@Rich-ng3yy I think he was pretty left - a lot of old fashioned 1970s economic policy in particular. But putting aside, I think he was severely lacking in political skills and strategy. A more skillful politician who had similar views probably would have been able to make himself seem less far left and/or less scary. He also would have been able to sidestep the antisemitism charges far more adeptly, and would have had the foresight to try to not to have had the Brexit issue get mixed in with the election. People warned him that the Conservatives were planting a trap by getting the election to be a Brexit election, and he walked right into it. The position he ended adopting on Brexit (renogatiate an agreement, but not campaign for it in another referendum) was also bizarre, noncommittal, and most importantly, from a political standpoint, indecisive.

    The question mark is SNP v Labour. SNP will take a hit due to internal strife but how big?
