Cameron’s ratings at all-time low – ‘Tories no better than under IDS’
David Cameron’s ratings are at an all-time according to YouGov. My graph below shows a massive dip down to just a two point net rating. Writing in The Daily Telegraph, Anthony King commented:
“The Conservative Party increasingly resembles a tired runner panting along in sweltering heat. He is ahead in the race but only because his main rival is even more exhausted…
The Tories today are no better off than they were under William Hague, Iain Duncan Smith and Michael Howard.
David Cameron’s election as Tory leader last December has so far made remarkably little difference. An initial tick upwards has been followed by several ticks downwards…
Mr Cameron has still failed to make a personal mark. To be sure, more people think he “would make the best prime minister” than think the same of Tony Blair, but the margin between them is wafer-thin -26 per cent to 25 per cent -and the largest single proportion of voters, 41 per cent, can offer up only a despairing “don’t know”…
People at first seemed impressed by Mr Cameron’s performance, if not as a potential premier, then at least as leader of his party. Six months ago, a healthy 46 per cent of YouGov’s respondents thought he was “proving a good leader of the Conservative Party”. That figure has now fallen to 35 per cent…
The proportion who reckon he is not proving effective has nearly doubled from 19 to 33 per cent. The proportion of voters unable to make up their mind about him remains high: 32 per cent.”
