Tbh that's not really true, the economy was hardly roaring away under Johnson, may or Cameron
Same week Truss crashed the economy with uncosted tax plans Labour were announcing spend plans that would have had same effect but they aren't bound by them now cos Truss crashed the economy.
Yep, that's quite a loss there. In practice, people don't neglect their party preferences, so you've got an audience who intending to vote Labour in approaching twice the numbers who will vote Tory. And still kieth loses.
Yeah that’s not what the polls say overall.
I'm warming to this flawed candidate.
Sutton Coldfield has been blue (Andrew Mitchell) since the dawn of time, and there's a very real possibility that it might do the unthinkable and elect a Labour representative. Sweeney is drawing attention to the constituency without doing anything quite so daft as making people vote for him (splitting the anti-Tory vote) - it's straight out of the same PR playbook as deliberately falling off a paddleboard in front of the press.
