It’s no secret that Labour’s been struggling lately, dropping from the high 40s in the polls to less than half that in just a year. But as bad as it looks for Starmer and his team, it’s nothing compared to the mess the Conservatives are in right now.
Back in April 2020 — not that long ago — the Tories were flying high. Boris Johnson was in intensive care with Covid, the country was united behind him, and the Conservatives were riding a wave of sympathy, polling at a jaw-dropping 57%. Fast-forward five years, and that support has crumbled to just 22%. They’re now trailing not only Labour but also Reform UK, with the Lib Dems breathing down their necks.
