If it was down to left wing policies then why didn't that happen before? Brexit was the ultimate decider. Lots had had enough of it. Remained voted Tory just to get it sorted. Corbyn dithered and was ineffective. He wasn't seen as a leader and rightly so. Some like Boris even if they aren't Tories.Originally Posted by Vindec
It doesn't mean that left wing policies aren't supported. If anything, our public services will be even more valued and more left wing policies will need to be a part of the agenda. This government has already been adopting some. In the last few elections prior to 2019, when given a blind policy test (so asked to vote solely on policies without knowing who was promising what), Labour came out on top.
While others reject this notion, the media also have a part to play. Largely right wing and Tory supporting, they do influence people. I've heard far too many people believe blatant lies that are printed in the press and spread them as gospel. They hate being corrected as a rule and prefer keeping an opinion that is known to be bollocks. It's true to say this happens on all sides of the political spectrum, yet Tory papers print far more bullshit than left leaning papers, and that's a fact. We're not talking opinions, we're talking things that are are factual.
