It’s not surprising that the Conservatives are likely to lose 75 council seats according to a BBC poll in the 4 May elections.
First there is the youth of Cameron’s makeover — he’s not yet had a chance to show that we’re not the same 80s and 90s Tories.
Second, there’s the slow but real loss of votes from traditional Conservative voters. The very people who currently support the Tories are likely to not vote this time as Cameron espouses leftist viewpoints.
The real irony, though, is that Conservatives do run Councils better than other parties and they normally do keep their promises. The inner cities who think they’re too cool to vote for the stuffy Conservatives are the very ones who need our help most!
