No, but when they do opinion polls they ask a carefully selected cross-section of the electorate. Plainly these aren't as representative as the people Mr & Mrs Ellers talk to in true blue Toryshire.

I’m certainly not a staunch Labour supporter by any means, I suspect I’d vote Green if that would make a difference but sadly as is it won’t. Whereas can Ellers honestly say he’d vote for another party?
 
If the scottish vote for independence then so be it. My clan is about 50/50 id say. If they do want it, its down to a decade of tory rule

Same here wills. Lucas talks a lot of sense and seems very humble but it would just be a wasted vote unfortunately.

Give Scotland it's independence
Be funny to watch as they try to give up their independence when they try to join the EU
 
My stepfather said it very well yesterday to me, hes voted conservative for over 60 years but he says this current lot is not the conservative party. He was a thatcher fan aswell the silly sod but reckons she would be turning in her grave at Johnson and his pretenders
 
They will also be reminded that Starmer ( if he is still leader) wanted a second referendum and his shadow cabinet is full of remainers… but that won’t be it.
The Tories will get the country back on track and things will move forward.
I dont honestly hear anyone apart from you saying that. Brexit was done and dusted. People may look back on broken promises of it though.
 
Do you like having a spineless liar as the PM, representing you? Does it appeal to you ellers?
Bob throughout history every politician has lied or bent the truth.
When I voted Tory at the last election it was because I wanted my local MP rather than the other freak who broke his manifesto promise, defected to the libs and wanted a second referendum…. Yes you got it, taking away my only voice ( my vote). I vote on a local level.

I knew Boris was popular and he had a way about him that won votes. No other politician would have done what Boris did. Boris like all leaders has flaws. Although very intelligent he lacks detail and rules… that’s Boris. You get what’s on the tin.
Agree he was stupid/ disrespectful/ utter twat, however I don’t believe he did this out of malice, If he had known what the consequences would be he wouldn’t have done it.
Can I forgive him? Yes, if he stops messing about and gets things done people will move on.
So please don’t play the integrity card if you think Labour are any better, just ask Keith Vaz, Barry Gardiner or the countless others.
