The people’s prince still living rent free in everybody’s head. In fairness to Sunak, Starmer is equally if not more Corbyn obsessed 

but no one is as obsessed as you.

[Guest]

Data shows that people aren’t bothered by the Corbyn attack lines, in fact as I pointed out people tend to say it’s more unfair on Starmer.

The only honest leader in british politics in my lifetime. A whisker away from a progressive revolution. Scuppered by the might of the liberal establishment, apoplectic at the fact they might not get away with dodging tax anymore.

I’m obsessed with not allowing the victors to rewrite history anyway

data being the polls you choose to post ... do you take everything as so black and white ?  I was having a chat with a  friend on Monday who's Dad has been heavily influenced by the daily mail .... so much so he doesnt access any other news ... he will be someone that believes the corbyn stuff and votes accordingly

The people who bring up Corbyn the most now are the deluded Corbynites trying to keep him relevant.

The latest polling I’ve seen on the data I’ve shared, if you can find any others instead of something anecdotal then please do share.

I’ve also shared commentary from people who know much more about this stuff than me, which would indicate that the Corbyn line of attack doesn’t do much.

It’s more conclusive than your friends Dad who hasn’t actually said either on the matter.

All I’m saying is from the data I’ve seen and analysis that those Corbyn lines of attack don’t work. If anything they do the opposite to remind people of how Corbyn was removed as a Labour MP and the Party has improved in their eyes since then. If you have any data that goes against that please do share.

scuppered by those bloody working class twats up north.

I have a feeling everyone thinks in a certain way that proves my argument.

Fair play for sharing the polling/focus group stuff re Corbyn and that is encouraging to see. I was also just going off anecdotal evidence from people I know who vote for the Tories historically, e.g. grandparents/my Mum (unfortunately) and her friends who all parrot that line and still do to this day. Hopefully it doesn't stick - it probably won't this time given the absolute mess we are in with people concerned about eating or heating...

By the time of the next election think it will be pretty clear to even those who don't follow politics much that corbyn has gone. Have to see how united labour remain though, especially when/if polls start narrowing.

The Corbyn line doesn’t really stick with the public, all it does is remind them that the guy isn’t even a Labour MP anymore and how everyone has moved on.

Sunak has 2 responses to Starmer at PMQs. Remain & Corbyn. He hasn’t got anything else. 

Wonder where you got that ?

Or maybe they both watched the same PMQs and made the same observations as have many others on twatterland.

Yeah must be a coincidence of course just like the other plagiarised stuff off twitter over the years …

So? It’s not exactly the most difficult of conclusions to come too.

jeez, bit lame. We all get info from different media, including twitter. So what? Ozanne's argument is that Sunak using Corbyn all the time in attacking Starmer is not having cut through, and then backed it up with some people who know stuff on twitter.

It’s not his argument it’s someone else’s he’s not quoting a post he’s using it as his own thoughts … it’s plagiarism … in school it used to be called cheating when using it for essays … I mean yeah I’m sure we’ve all done it but don’t be trying to claim yourself as some kind of political expert … when the thoughts are mostly copied from others off twitter … if Twitter is your thing and you agree it’s quite easy to post that and agree with it

Weren't you off to make up a fake Twitter profile to back up your argument, how's that going for you?

Jeez, what's wrong with you this evening? It's not my fault you haven't been able to find any data/info to back your previous point.
