He pointed out that many of these swing voters can be found in Conservative strongholds in the home counties and south-east – including areas where the Liberal Democrats made significant gains at the expense of the Tories at last month’s local elections.
That's the key I guess. When you break down the numbers, will having a "pro-Brexit"* leader risk marginal seats or not? I can't help but think that when it comes to the election, it'll be a bit Macron and Le Pen - with the general public holding their noise and voting for BJ to prevent a Corbyn govt.
What's interesting about the YouGov poll quoted is that those surveyed feel like they know BJ. Next closest "don't know enough" is Gove who polls 25% to BJ's 10%.
*as if BJ is pro anything other than himself
