Stockholm syndrome, it's the only sensible reason.

People believe what they see/hear/read and basically everything put out by the mass media in this country falls somewhere between being sympathetic toward our government to being outright sycophantic. Combine that with continued efforts to devalue the position and competence of the opposition, and the relatively weak performance of that opposition at the same time, and you have a recipe for the disaster we find ourselves in

Congrats to the Lib Dems and Greens for their vaccine bounce in the polls.

Going after those Tory votes didn't work out after all

Starmer sits on the fence more than Corbyn ever did. Which is so strange considering the amount of ammo to attack them with just keeps on coming.

That said with there being almost zero accountability of any dodgy actions in the tabloids or news it's no wonder people don't see or know what's happening.

Trouble is, going after the left wing votes didn't work either.

We are strawberry floated until the country wakes up to the appalling nature of Johnson's government.
