Is The Tide Turning?

Several polls have Labour advancing and the Tory lead reducing, although they  still have a hefty lead. Another poll suggests that a majority, for the first time since June 2016, now thinks Brexit was a bad idea. On the news last night I watched two clips. One was of May not answering questions on the Andrew Marr Show; she was tense and sounded bossy, repetitive, yet unwilling to be  specific. Beneath the heavy make up she looked a wreck. Then it was Corbyn’s turn. He was calm, confident, relaxed and answered the question put to him.

Everything about her is staged and controlled. He is natural and genuine. She changes her mind all the time, so you cannot trust her. Even if you love her. His views have been known for decades. He never changes his mind to curry favour. So you can trust him. Even if you hate him.

It is way too early to tell, save for this. It is no longer certain that the Tories will win. Because the more you see of her, the more annoying she becomes. The more you see of him, the more interesting he gets. And there are five weeks and three days to go.
