“How did such an inept stupid individual get so high up in politics”.
He isn’t high up, really.
Farage has shown in the past that he doesn’t particularly like sharing the limelight, so it will be interesting to see how long the love-in with Jenrick and Braverman lasts.
Meanwhile in the by-election news, Labour are back into 5/2 after an opinion poll in the constituency showed Reform on 36%, Labour on 33% and the Greens way behind on 21%. However, only 140 people were asked, which doesn’t seem like a large sample size.
For what it is worth, when the same people were asked to state their preference if Burnham had been a candidate, Labour’s share rose to 49%.
