Dear Politicians, You suck. yours, the electorate.

If my job was persuading the people of Britain that I should be trusted with the future of their country, the following chart would concern me more than a little.

Asked which party the statement : “It is led by people of real ability” applies to most,  British voters give “None” a lead over all UK Parties combined of six points.

None: 45 vs Conservative: 20, Labour: 16, LibDem: 3. 

In May last year, the political parties had a seventeen point lead.

None: 33 vs Conservative: 28, Labour: 19, LibDem: 4. 

This isn’t a question of David, Ed or Nick, it’s something that every frontline politician should feel stung by.
