No, the public are always more recent.
No.
Yeah, well I mean James is entirely right.
The th one of the big criticisms we hear from the public is one man band and one policy band, which is just uh immigration, they're clearly trying to uh broaden their appeal.
I think the challenge though, and I think this is what both Emma and James were uh getting at, is that whilst the reform coalition, if you look at reform voters, people who say they vote reform, are united on immigration, crime, sense of national decline.
When it comes to economic questions, their base is actually quite divided.
And voters they won for the Tories are sort of quite full fat on the, you know, we'd clap down on benefits, as are the Tory MPs they've taken over.
On the other hand, the voters they've won from Labour actually were split down the middle on Labour's pip cuts, you know, which weren't obviously at the scale of what reform are proposing.
And so I think what we've
seen since the start of this year and since Robert Jenwick coming over is this embrace of kind of a more kind of Tory economic message, which I think works if you're able to supplant the Tories as the party of the right.
Then perhaps you don't need the Labour defectors.
If you're not going to do that, and look, this Kemi Batenock approval bounce doesn't seem to have translated into a party bounce yet, but it does look like it's stabilized them.
If you can't squeeze the Tories
You do need some voters from elsewhere and you do need more voters than left.
And I think that's the tension that reform are grappling with.
What has undoubtedly happened is that this time last year you would look at Kenby Baidenok's approval ratings and they were dreadful.
I mean there's no other word from sort of minus thirty, you know, the party looked like it was really stuck.
Since then, she's basically climbed up and up and up, and she's now in our tracker on plus three.
Doesn't sound great, but actually being positive uh for a party leader.
It's only her and Andy Burnham who are positive, you know, actually is pretty good.
