The Guardian: Labour poll rise suggests Manchester attack has not boosted Tories


The narrowing of the Conservative lead over Labour to five points in the first opinion poll since the Manchester suicide bombing on Monday punctures the widespread political assumption that the attack would improve the Tories’ standing. 
The Times/YouGov poll putting the Conservatives on 43% and Labour on 38% was based on interviews conducted on Wednesday and Thursday, and included the period in which Theresa May declared a critical threat level and announced the deployment of nearly 1,000 troops on to the streets of Britain.
If only our media was less biased and concentrated more on the Tory support for international terrorism through its cosy links to Saudi Arabia and Qatar.

Eliminating student tuition fees is Labour's most popular policy cue the Conservatives declaring financial irresponsibility because, despite the fact we can't prove there's no such thing as public money creation or the need for it, governments must balance their budgets like a household. Cue a predominantly economic and monetary illiterate electorate scratching their heads in puzzlement as to who they should vote for!

Thanks. The whole world must be real scared with the US brute thumping about. Can you imagine how ordinary Russians and Chinese feel surrounded by a very hostile aggressor? One that pretends to believe in democracy, or markets, or capitalism, or human rights.


The US doesn't support democracies, or secular states in the ME, only brutal dictatorships that spread terrorism. But the Western MSM haven't noticed.
