Time for a change

Back in October I wrote that "I think a "time for a change" mood is building" and elsewhere I reported this mood amongst people I speak to. Today I see in The Independent an article headed "Poll shock for Brown as voters say it's time for change" by Andrew Grice. It concerns a ComRes opinion poll which was conducted two weekends ago, I do not know why The Independent have been sitting on it for so long. Ignoring the normal share of the voting intentions questions, the more interesting finding is "that 48 per cent of the public agree with the statement that "it's time for change and the next government should be a Conservative one", while only 36 per cent would prefer a Labour administration to a Tory one."
It would appear that the "time for a change" mood is increasing and once that builds there will be nothing that Gordon Brown and his team of lightweights and no-hopers will be able to do.

Andrew Grice writes that "The poll suggests that the Tories are seen as a government-in-waiting and that the Prime Minister may struggle to portray himself as a "change" after more than 10 years of Labour rule.". When the economy's collapse becomes more noticeable in 2008 then the clamour against this most inept Labour government will increase. Did you listen to Any Questions on Friday? Rarely have I heard an audience turn on a Labour minister as quickly and overwhelmingly as that one did. This Labour government are all but finished, it is a shame that in the last 10 years they have so comprehensively ruined the country they have ruled.
