Was worried Sunday papers wouldn't have a Labour reshuffle story. No need

Intelligent person, that Ruth Davidson. I wonder who her influences are.

I wouldn't be surprised if someone from the 2010 intake, who we haven't heard of so far, emerged from nowhere and took it.

If he wants a woman in a top 4 role does Corbyn have any allies aside from Thornberry or Abbott?  Can't see either being popular choices with the electorate given prior incidents.

Not sure he really cares about popular to be fair  Wink

Why is Corbyn all three options for the 'Best PM' one?

they asked an either/or

corbyn against current and two prospective tory leaders

osborne's relative unpopularity amongst the electorate (but not the tory membership) is a common theme

YouGov UK Poll (change on May 2012):

Main Centre Right (Con+UKIP) 56%(+16)

Main Centre Left (Lab+LD) 35%(-18)

Centre Right Lead 21% (+34!)

quite dramatic, really

I would dispute that ukip are centre right - they have taken a lot of votes from labour (blue collar voters worried about what immigration is doing to their jobs)

Not sure ukips policies are coherent enough to fit on a simple left right line.

They seem pretty solidly right to me - I'd dispute that the fact they're taking votes from Labour is the relevant point. Blue collar doesn't equal left wing (does it?)

Their policies apart from anti EU/anti immigration rarely see the light of day but I think they are small state and flat tax so I think they are economically right wing.
