Sunak v Starmer


 
More people now prefer Sunak government to Starmer’s, poll finds

More people now prefer Rishi Sunak’s government to Sir Keir Starmer’s administration, a poll has found.

A survey by think tank More in Common shows the Labour Government is already less liked than the previous Tory one, despite taking power less than three months ago.

The poll of 2,080 adults showed that 31 per cent preferred Mr Sunak’s government, while 29 per cent preferred the current one.


A chap is bound to wonder if any of this lot were included in the poll - just out of interest.

The frogs begged Zeus to send them a king, so he sent them a log. At first the frogs feared it but, in time, when the log did nothing, they came to despise their king and demanded another.

This time, Zeus sent a water snake, which began to prey on the frogs. The terrified frogs begged Zeus to take the tyrant away. Zeus, however, would not help; “I gave you what you asked for; you must now live with the consequences”. (Aesop:c. 600BC)

Plus ça change…

Macheath - ha ha - very apt. Five years with a log as PM would give us breathing space to deal with water snakes.
