https://yougov.co.uk/topics/politics/articles-reports/2021/03/04/voting-intention-con-45-lab-32-3-4-mar

Those yougov poll figures released yesterday are brutal, suggests that the Cons have opened up a 25 point lead among working class voters. Only a 4 point lead among middle class voters on the other hand.

Few caveats though:
a) likely that there is a bit of a 'vaccine bounce' which will fade away
b) the working class are far more undecided about who they're going to end up voting for than middle class
c) sample size is only 1700 odd - thought they ran these polls on a much larger scale
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Labour abandoned the working class to focus on upper class vanity projects like FBPE. Shameful and shocking it's not talked about more.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I was watching a Blair interview from a few years back and one interesting point he made was elections are increasingly decided by the middle class rather than working class vote, owing to changing demographics. In that sense, even if Labour won back the working classes that still might not be enough (and in fact that was partly what informed Blair's own new Labour strategy).

Nothing about the medical consequences of puberty blockers, which are largely irreversible and stunt bone development. Nothing about the consequences of determining gender as a social construct. Nothing about the desecration of single sxx female spaces. Just all woke jargon over something so complicated. The American Left is obsessed with this but if you push back, of course it is us starting the culture war.

She’s a simpleton Twitter mouthpiece that ticks diversity boxes, nothing more. She does not even grasp the basics.

Also observe the US media is very quiet on the latest border fiascoes

I’m going to enjoy watching them dig their own grave mate. They wanted this so let’s see how well the country does over the next 4 years.

Has anyone seen Biden yet? Or is he still sending BLM drones/bombs to Syria?

Did you watch much of the farcical impeachment as another example?

I dont normally get wound up by her but the US political and media outlook on this issue is so brazenly oblivious to the actual issues it annoys me
----------------------------------------------------------------------
That and we’re importing a fair share of it too. It’s Twitter, that’s why all these people think the same. Ideologically possessed controlled by Silicon Valley. Naive idiots.

I enjoyed the polls showing more people were concerned by post George Floyd riots than Capitol Hill violence and how upset the media got in response.

I do think if Trump was 20 percent less tw@ttish or if there had been no pandemic, he would have won. That is how crap the Democrats are.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yeah he really got it wrong towards the end. Pandemic would have made it close but his over arrogance and stupidity cost him.

The cuomo stuff only being cared about now is crazy, it came out months ago about the care homes but no one wanted to really do much as it might have boosted trump

Most empires (all?) that have ever existed have eventually slid back into mediocrity at some point

US is very much in late Empire mode, Chinese ascension and hegemony will be much less kind to us.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
i agree...much rather the US was the world power than facking Chinnnnnnnaa

US empire didnt last long tbh...was the dominant power for little over a century
