Hi folks, welcome to another one of our political chats. I'm joined by Dan, and today we're going to be talking about the Scramble for Narrative, because last week we did a one of the, an episode of this, where we talked about how reform has gone down in the polls, and here is the political poll of polls, which undeniably shows that. And literally the next day, everyone was suddenly going on about, oh, reforms going

down the polls. And that caused Nigel Farage to get angry at UGov. Because you gov, one of the pollsters

who were pitching reform quite low.

I've got a very similar story to that.

Because you and Luke are always so well turned out,

I thought I'm going to have to break out the suit with the waistcoat.

So I got the suit with the waistcoat out of the cupboard,

and I had to get angry with it because it got smaller in the 10 years since I'd last worn it.

But I mean, quite many such cases.

Quite realistically, I'm probably picking the wrong target there.

Hey man, if you can get that suit to change.

That's exactly what happened. Maybe if I just verbally berated it enough,

it would get bigger or whatever. That is, that is, that is exactly the themes of today's

episode. So as you can see, it's not just, uh, you gov, obviously. Here's one from Techni,

which I'm not even familiar with, to me, unless

here's one from more uncommon, minus two, minus three. And so you've got this general trend of, well, actually, things are kind of going a bit south. Your first one was polar poles, wasn't it? It was encompassing all. So it covers them all. Because I remember we discussed this last week and it was kind of at that

sort of inflection week a week back

and...

Well, it's...

No, no, it's been... covers them all. Because I remember we discussed this last week and it was kind of at that sort of

inflection week, a week back. And, well, it's, no, no, it's been fairly consistent. Where did we talk about it last week? Where were? It was literally only about here, I think. Oh, okay. So it's, I mean, you know, ups and downs, but it's been pretty low. Oh, the trend is in. I mean, that is looking like a red ski route.

And don't get me wrong, like we keep talking about.
