General Election 2024

Braverman: "It's over. Blame me"

It is notable that Labour’s vote share has not markedly increased in
recent weeks, but our vote is evaporating from both Left and Right.

The critics will cite Boris [Johnson], Liz [Truss], Rwanda, and, I can
immodestly predict, even me as all being fatal to our ‘centrist’ vote.

The reality is rather different: we are haemorrhaging votes largely to
Reform. Why? Because we failed to cut immigration or tax or deal with
the net zero and woke policies we have presided over for 14 years.

We may lose hundreds of excellent MPs because of our abject inability
to have foreseen this inevitability months ago: that our failure to
unite the Right would destroy us.”
