No idea of the breakdown of the 700k - presumably a fair percentage are students?

He's trolling you, Andrew. He knows full well that not all the net migration is destined for the NHS. I'd ignore him ... I do

Let them call it early as that is what the vast majority of the electorate want for the simple reason that they have seen what 13 years of catastrophic governance has brought us.
Nothing is working anymore, the NHS and public services have been cut to the bone, etc, etc, etc.

Re: The Chronicles of Rishi
The Conservatives have nothing about which to be confident. As a government (or three), my party has been incompetent.

Dunning-Kruger effect, probably…

The Dunning-Kruger effect is a type of psychological bias. A classic example of the Dunning-Kruger effect would be an amateur chess player overestimates their performance in the upcoming chess tournament compared to their competent counterparts.

Yes, until they remember the Labour years.
The thing is, people say things to the opinion pollsters, but when it comes to the general election, people weigh up the offerings of all the parties standing for election. I don’t think people will forget the reason for austerity, the Covid crisis and the Ukraine war when figuring out why so much looks like it’s broken.
Starmer clearly doesn’t have anything to offer the country that will make a difference (apart from more debt, of course).

The electorate get what they vote for. More of them need to recognise that. Do they want a1p tax cut, or that life saving bypass/cancer treatment when they or their family need it?
I've been an adult for quite a long time now. I've never seen the country in a worse state. Not sure if Labour have the answers, but the Tories have proved over 13 years that they certainly don't. They are only interested in looking after themselves/ the select few that finance them.

As usual you revert to your very weak straw man argument.
Starmer might be a bit dull in parts but for a fair few voters he will be a vast improvement on the last three prime ministers this country has had and he won't bring any of the neverending chaos and daily psychodrama's many voters have had to put up with for many years.

Tbh, I'll take a bit dull but competent. That would be a vast improvement on the last few PMs. It's not a personality contest, or 'Celebrity come Governing'.
Boris was entertaining but at the expense of destroying the country. Worth it? He will f off to the Aussie jungle, like Prattcock and Farage, to top up his millions.
