Bad idea to insult your heartland PM

October 05, 2025

IT WAS OFF to Liverpool last week for the Labour conference but if, as one of the party's former Prime Ministers once suggested, “a week is a long time in politics” the last 14 months must have served as an eternity to this embattled one.

Because somehow a party that was swept into power on the back of a vote that crushed all opposition has slumped in the polls to an unprecedented degree, and is now led by the most unpopular Prime Minister in polling history.

And that includes Margaret Thatcher, Tony Blair after Iraq and Boris Johnson after Covid. That takes some doing!
