Poll shows most of us want to get rid of the Tories. Duh!
This should come as no surprise:
A majority of British people say the Conservative Party has made their lives worse, according to an exclusive new poll revealing huge public dissatisfaction with how the UK has been governed over the past 13 years.
The wake-up call comes a little further down this article, but let’s go through the figures first:
Asked by pollsters Omnisis whether the Conservative-led Government has made their lives better or worse since 2010, 55% said they have made it worse, with just 14% saying they have made it better.
This negative view of the Conservative Party’s handling of the last 13 years was shared across all age groups and regions of the UK, with little difference found between Brexit and Remain voters.
Our poll found little enthusiasm for the prospect of another Conservative-led Government.
Just 13% said they believed another victory for Sunak’s party would make their lives better, compared to 42% who said it would make it worse.
This compared to 35% who said a Labour government would improve their lives and 23% who said it would make it worse.
So most of us want a change from neoliberal Conservatism to a left-wing government. That would be the democratic choice. Right?
Isn’t it sad that Conservatives want to frustrate democracy, however they can – as the first few seconds of this speech by Tory Lord Cruddas demonstrate:
Lord Cruddas "If Labour wins they will reduce the voting age, abolish voter ID, and introduce Proportional Representation making it impossible for the Conservative party to win an outright majority in the future" #BrexitHasFailed pic.twitter.com/Xnbtbcst1C

He was saying that younger voters would oppose Conservatives and should be denied the vote; voter ID denies the vote to people who should have it; and proportional representation would allow voters to have a government that reflects the will of the people as a whole, rather than a small minority.
So, he was saying, Tories should prevent these things from happening at all costs.
I’d say that’s another reason to vote them out. Wouldn’t you?
