These are the words of Matt Chorley of The Times who is madly anti-Labour (as you would expect) and who wrote in the Red Box email (which is free and I consider essential daily reading) https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/n...dbox-925pqzzpj
https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/l...118918_1898515 "Three weeks ago I wrote that despite being likened to Margaret Thatcher and Jesus, May was actually not very good. She is fine at reading things out but terrible at answering questions or responding to criticism. I was surprised by the number of senior Tories, under sworn secrecy, who got in touch to say that in the privacy of their own thoughts, they agreed. Support within for the PM in the Tory party, even among ministers, is wide but pretty shallow. I admit now I made two mistakes in that column. First, I predicted the correction in public opinion would come after June 8, when May had to make big decisions and her mettle was tested. It has come much sooner. And I ended by saying: “But it’s fine because she is going to win, and win big, and I will be removed from my bed in the middle of the night to be taken to a camp and re-educated.” I admit I was wrong. The idea that May will win big now looks, if not impossible, in serious doubt".
