Right wing journo, Tom Harwood raised a good point the other day that I actually agree with.

He said that Starmer is basically doing nothing but sh1tting on his own people at this stage, and Sunak/tories are unveiling new policy after new policy, and it's not even registering, because this isn't an election about ideas it's an election about punishment, and that's a simple way to explain why I believe you don't have this one right.

The only path to a tiny majority, is that voters are so unenthused by Starmer, that lots just vote independent/green/sit it out. But there is absolutely no forward momentum by Tories to take back some of the vote.

maybe i will be wrong and labour will romp home with the biggest majority ever, but Starmer just doesn't feel like the kind of guy to achieve that and while there may be some vocal condemnation of Sunak, the average tory will carry on voting tory irrespective of the leader, the same way that labour voters do

It's not really about party loyalty at this stage, it's about the lived experience of 15 years.
