Opinion polls give the opposition Labour party a 20-point lead over the Tories. An election debacle could tempt Sunak's opponents within the party to topple him. Or he could limp along, wounded and weak, only to crash-land in the looming general elections. That would bring back Labour.
An invigorated Labour party is ahead in the thousands of seats in the upcoming local councils and mayoral races, including London. In traditional Tory strongholds of West Midlands and Tees Valley in England, conservative candidates shun Sunak in their leaflets and request toxic Tory MPs to stay away. Tories could also lose their Blackpool South parliamentary seat, vacated by Tory MP Scott Benton after a lobbying scandal.
Experts agree the problem is the Tory party. Its legacy after a 14-year rule-some say misrule―is public fatigue. Brexit was a folly characterised by drama, deceit and disruption.
