She, Penny Mordaunt, and Johnny Mercer continue to simply trade places on the podium, as they have since November – and only these three have a positive score of over 30 points.
Labour don’t have a plan for our iconic dockyard – or our country. Both locally and nationally, their only strategy is to dine out on public opinion, rather than to offer a positive vision. People in Plymouth are waking up to this.
Meanwhile Penny Mordaunt overleaps Kemi Badenoch to take top billing after being front and centre in the row over Speaker Hoyle a couple of weeks ago.
Otherwise, most scores are much the same as last month, with many of them down even from its woeful levels.
Only 17 members of the Cabinet are above a lowly ten points. Sunak falls to his lowest negative rating yet. Badenoch continues to lead the rankings.
The Foreign Secretary has been a visible media and online presence since Hamas attacked Israel – and, like Ben Wallace during the Ukraine war, sees his place and rating rise.
Badenoch is top for the second month running, but scores are paltry almost all the way round, and in no way a springboard for the Manchester conference.
At just over 700 replies, the low response rate reflects not only the summer season but diminished expectations. This is a bleak return for the Government as Parliament resumes.
The Veterans’ Minister adds that “it’s a really difficult policy area” but that 400 people are being housed and he is “really proud of the effort.”
My explanation? The Uxbridge & South Ruislip by-election result – and the Prime Minister’s tilt from green politics to red – or rather blue – meat.
It’s been a quieter political month with lots of publicity for the Government’s small boats plan. Ben Wallace continues his reign at the top of the ratings.
This Government is committed to championing the needs of those who have given so much, and will continue to build on the huge strides already taken to genuinely improve veterans’ care across the United Kingdom.
We are urging Suella Braverman and Chris Philp to listen to the Psilocybin Access Rights campaign, part of a wider discussion about a fundamental human right to access medicine.
Sunak’s rating is still lamentable and Hunt remains in negative ratings, but Sturgeon’s fall and Zelensky’s visit made last month’s political background less unfavourable.
The Scottish Secretary, understated in his public utterances, “often makes the wittiest interjections in Cabinet discussions”.
