:russ: Weak.

Also, it's amazing that so much airtime is still given to people who... really needn't be listened to? I'm not sure how else to put it. Nigel, Liz Truss, creh who left to join that soon-to-be-former party (remember Change UK? 🤣) Lee Anderson. Is Liz Truss even still an MP? Until the election I suppose

The wait has been exhausting.

I'm in the UK now, hearing this a lot: "Whoever you vote for it stays the same."

Here's the reality:

2/3
I'm glad to see this guy campaigning against Trump, who increased the national debt by 1/3!

3/3
Joe Biden and the Big Spenders in Washington don’t want you to know how bad the national
debt is. If you’re informed, their plans are ruined. Sign up, stay informed, and stop their plans!

when I first read it - who exactly is this party supposed to represent now? Larger and larger segments of the population are getting reamed by its policies, or lack thereof (or maybe most accurately, abandoned).

I don't think this poll is on the We Think site but some of the other ones might be interesting.

It’s the Conservative Party Which Most ‘Undermines British Values’, Say Voters

As ministers target ‘extreme’ groups for ‘undermining British values’, a new poll suggests it’s the Government which is most out of step with Britain
bylinetimes.com bylinetimes.com

A majority of British voters now believe that it’s the Conservative Party which truly doesn’t understand British values, an exclusive new poll commissioned by Byline Times suggests.

...

However, new polling conducted this week by pollsters We Think for this paper found that 61% of those surveyed do not believe the Conservative Party “understands British values”, with a further 58% saying the same of Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.

By contrast, a majority of those surveyed said that the Labour Party (57%) and its leader Keir Starmer (56%) do in fact understand British values.
