    The only thing proving otherwise is that there can’t be anyone behind such a push. The right have proven they can’t put up a unified front against a stiff breeze

    The Tory party are tearing each other apart like rabid hyenas but there’s more going on in the right than them. There’s the Tory press, lobbyists and other interest groups (like those run out if Tufton Street) and other state actors with interest in leaving the country in disarray. They’ve largely given up on this election but they will already be planning ahead. Voter suppression and spinning the take that this is a vote against the Tories not a vote for Labour and that could leave Starmer vulnerable down the line.

    I reckon someone has been doing private polling and whispering in Farage’s ear about the chance of becoming PM next election. That’s the real danger.

      far from a false claim.
