One of my hot takes is that Sunak was essentially fucked by the polling in 2022, if the polls had accurately shown a 45-55 race then the whole summer (and the MPs rounds) would’ve had a completely different dynamic

I genuinely think a lot of pretty egregious gaffes and errors Truss made during that campaign would’ve gotten much more traction if the press didn’t have the attitude of “well she’s 100% going to win anyway”
