Latest opinion poll puts Labour in the doldrums – because it doesn’t have a LEADER
Labour’s shame: Starmer cannot offer us leadership away from the incompetence of Boris Johnson and his Tories. All he can offer us are excuses.
Yes, you read the headline right. The Labour Party remains unpopular because it doesn’t have a leader.
It is currently 12 points behind the Conservatives, according to the latest opinion poll:
Westminster voting intention:
CON: 44% (+2)
LAB: 32% (-)
LDEM: 8% (-1)
GRN: 5% (-)via @SavantaComRes, 04 – 06 Jun

Party officials can’t even point to backstabbing amongst themselves – which caused much of Labour’s unpopularity in the run-up to the 2019 general election.
MPs and right-wing party officials – all of whom should have been working for the Conservative Party but had set themselves up in Labour to deprive political left-wingers of a home – spent months and years after the 2017 election undermining then-leader Jeremy Corbyn with false accusations of anti-Semitism and incompetence against him and his supporters.
Keir Starmer has no such betrayals holding him back. His failure is entirely his fault.
And it is because he is not a leader.
He’s definitely a follower. He followed the demands of the Tory-led Board of Deputies of British Jews in his crusade against left-wingers anti-Semitism in the Labour Party. Has it won him more support? No. The BoD was attacking Labour, not because they are Jews defending themselves against racism but because they are Tories. They will never support that party.
He also followed Boris Johnson in his determination to kill off as many Covid-19 sufferers as possible. It seems entirely likely to This Writer that Johnson realised most of the deaths were of pensioners and this meant he could cut the pension bill considerably. Why Starmer supported mistake after incompetent Johnson mistake is anybody’s guess.
Under Keir Starmer, Labour has stalled.
He is not the party’s leader because Labour isn’t going anywhere.
He won’t even take the hint and leave.
He is incapable.
He is paralysed.
That is exactly what Boris Johnson wants, and everybody knows it. And that is why Labour won’t be winning any general elections under Starmer.
