Labour's core voters, on which its re-election entirely depends, are crystal clear about this: they absolutely hate its illiberal, intolerant, draconian, rightwards turn. Hence the total collapse in support. So how does the government respond?

The rot runs right through this Labour government. Starmer made Mandelson ambassador to the US despite knowing of his relationship with convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein. He must go. Streeting must cancel the NHS contract with Palantir which has Mandelson's hands all over it.
