      They, the Tory voter, want to pay over a £MILLION PER PERSON for a one-way ticket to Rwanda, for young men who could work a lifetime for the UK, paying more in taxes than the standard Brit..
      They want to pay for all their healthcare costs as they age,
      They love to be lied to by spivs and creeps.
      Bet Sunak wishes he could get the voters to all vote as they would have on the day he came to power.

    Polls narrowing isn't guaranteed.
    The reason it happened in previous years, is that the incumbent party (who'd weathered attacks from an opposition with time on their hands) fired up their pre-election spin machine, and countered those criticisms, in the final weeks.
    That isn't working this year.
    The damage caused by the Tories, and specifically their current ascendant faction, is too visible.
    They can't scare the public with the usual lies about Labour.
    Anyone who remembers the period 1997-2010 knows we had lower taxes, and working public services.
    Since 2010, we've paid the highest tax burden in history, and got NOTHING to show for it.

    It's hardly a suprise. Just look at the state of the country. By virtually every metric the Tories have failed - more poverty (including child and in work poverty); increase in homelessness; destitution on the rise; literally crumbling schools and hospitals; NHS on it's knees; massive drop in average living standards; reduced civil rights.
    Plus all the scandals, all the lies and the utter abandonment of the concept of responsibility and accountability in public office.
    Honestly whether you're left wing, right wing or somewhere in the middle, how on earth could anyone contemplate voting for the Tories?

    The reason I find this "there's no love for Labour" line iritating, beyond the fact that it's blatent cope, is because...was there really "love" for anyone who's won an election recently? In 2010 Cameron didn't win, he had to form a coalition and Labour very much lost, in 2015 the Tories scraped a tiny majority off the back of Lib Dem collapse and Labour losing Scotland rather than passionate love for their platform, in 2017 the only candidate whose supporters "loved" them was Corbyn and he still lost, and then in 2019 people seemed to dislike basically everyone but hey at least Boris promised to get Brexit over with so we'll hold our nose.
    I do think the only times a party people "love" has done super well recently have been Labour in 2001 and the SNP in 2015. This idea that it's a problem for Labour that people aren't in love with them is for the faries. We don't have to love Labour, we just have to think they'll do while REALLY hating the alternative.

      "Clearly the polls show otherwise" - no, the polls do not show love for Labour - all the secondary questions in the polls show no enthusiasm for Labour whatsoever. Labour are only so far ahead by virtue of the Tory collapse. Starmer's approval ratings remain stubbornly negative, the vast majority of people polled consistently say they "do not know what Labour stands for", and when "Neither of the above" is included in options for answers to the question "Who would make the best PM/Who would you like to see as PM?", Sunak and Starmer are totally bested by a landslide of respondents preferring "Neither of the above".

      The rationale would be could another candidate do better then Rishi.
      I think most Tory MP's are aware a loss is coming no matter who is at the head of the party and that their constant infighting has made things worse for them. But if you look at it from their point of view the polls haven't got better at all, they've been predicted a crushing defeat for many, many months and so there will be Tory MP's willing to risk a chaotic leadership challenge if only to make their loss less humiliating.
