I put this poll on Twitter last night. The response ratios stabilised after a couple of hundred votes had been recorded. It has attracted a lot more now:
Some people were upset that I did not offer more options, of which green issues was the most commonly suggested, but to be candid that was not the point of this exercise.
I posted the poll whilst watching discussion of migration and Rwanda policy. I was utterly bored of hearing Tory after Tory saying that stopping small boats is a matter of priority for the people of this country. I was sure that was not true. The poll was intended to test that hypothesis and I think the response shows that this is really not the issue the Tories claim it to be. For some it might be. Most can see it is a manufactured dead cat intended to distract from Tory failings elsewhere.
What did surprise me was the response to the last question, which I threw in as a ‘none of the a above option’ but which also tested whether people might opt for Labour out of conviction, or not. It is apparent that they are voting against the Tories, not for Labour. Maybe I should not have been surprised, but I was by the scale of this. Labour need to be worried.
