The mention of politics which was the favourite subject of the Labour voters only a few weeks ago, now it results in lost eye contact and scurrying away.

I think people want to switch off from politics for a bit now anyway. They want things to get better but want less day to day drama from Westminster.

So do I but they're mostly wrapped up in tax-free wrappers. (SIPP, ISA).
TBH I don't care that much even if I had to declare it because it would still mean a profit. I don't turn over massive sums on dividends that it would be a big issue for me, my main income is my salary which had been hit harder by fiscal drag and will continue to do so for this parliament.
That is what will impact most people IMO.
