The Tory party is the true coalition of chaos
‘Rishi Sunak’s message is clear: it’s not over yet. Things are tighter than they appear. It’s still all to play for,’ writes Ian Dunt
Sky News suggested Labour would be the largest party in a general election but fall 32 seats short of a majority. Today, Tory MPs will listen to Sunak, campaign chief Isaac Levido and party chair Richard Holden at an election presentation in which they claim that the gap between the Tories and Labour is lower than it appears in most polls. The message is clear: it’s not over yet. Things are tighter than they appear. It’s still all to play for.
The dynamic for the Tories is slightly different. The Reform party, which is causing considerable trouble on the Conservative’s right flank, hardly appeared in any of the wards contested in the local election, but leader Richard Tice has said that he intends to put up a candidate in every constituency. The potential damage that could inflict on the Tories was demonstrated by the Blackpool South by-election, which saw the party come within a few votes of overtaking the Tories.
