‘Home Alone’ video stunt can’t stop Sunak’s popularity from plunging
His next job: it’s an old meme but worth recycling for this story.
The problem for Rishi Sunak is that, if he wanted to get the public on his side with a sympathetic video clip, he needed it to represent what he’s really like.
And he’s really not one of the good guys.
If he was a politician with standards he stood by, rather than a corrupt puppet of Big Money (see any number of news items from the past few years), and the clip showed this, then he might have got somewhere.
Instead…
Rishi Sunak’s net rating among Conservative Party members has reached its lowest point ever.
The survey of Tory members, carried out on Conservative Home, which looks at the popularity of cabinet members, found Sunak to have a net satisfaction rating of -26.5, meaning he secured second to last place on the ranking of cabinet members.
He also broke his own record of minus 25.4, which he reached just last month.
Sunak’s unpopularity among the Tory members will embolden those on the right of the party who think that the only way to turn around the party’s fortunes is by replacing the Tory leader.
Tory MPs can be broadly split into two camps, the Sunak backers who still think there is a narrow path to victory under the Prime Minister’s leadership, and those on the Tory right who think that no matter how hard the Tory leader tries, nothing short of a change in leadership will stop the Tory electoral wipe-out widely being predicted.
And the same poll that dumped on Sunak so badly has put ultra-right-winger Kemi Badenoch at the top.
You see how easy it would be for the far right to take control after a Tory election loss?
