I’d be interested to see underlying data to the polls. Are they not moving full stop or is there movement in there with no overall change?

A 4% cut in “tax” for working people but not pensioners should, in normal times, move some dials. However perhaps this lot so incompetent they’ve lost everyone that’d be motivated by such things already and their vote is really at the floor of true believers, people who hate “socialism” and those that don’t understand economics.

Abolishing NI and recouping that revenue from income tax or VAT would be quite a move against the interests of traditional Tory voters.
