I don't think that's right - nobody's saying it's Labour's fault.

Unless you're a loyal Leftie, reasonable people who inhabit forums such as this hold Labour in greater contempt than the Conservatives. The Corbyn tendency lingers in the form of the unions; plus Starmer has the charisma of a slug.

Boris is all bombast and (now reducing) buffoonery. But he does carry the day in these very difficult times brought about by the Pandemic. People seem not to have the time nor tendency to give Labour much consideration.

Something like that.
