In March, YouGov conducted an important but little-noted survey of the
relative popularity of 21 British politicians. Respondents were asked:
"Which of the following politicians do you feel generally negative
about?" Obviously, prominent politicians are likely to get a worse
score than those who are not yet well known. The most unpopular seven
are all well known. Mr Brown had the worst score of all: 57 per cent
said they felt "generally negative" about him. Tony Blair scored 54.9
per cent; John Reid 36.9 per cent; Patricia Hewitt 36.4 per cent; Jack
Straw, 34 per cent. Then came the two opposition leaders, David
Cameron, 32.8 per cent, and Sir Menzies Campbell, 29.7 per cent.
.....
There is one finding that Labour strategists must find particularly
disturbing. The worst figure for any of the 21 politicians in any of
eight categories by gender, age or social class, is the percentage of
55-year-olds and over who feel generally negative about Mr Brown: that
is 66.2 per cent.

The 55-year-old category is particularly important because this is the
age group most likely to vote. Indeed it accounts for close to half of
all actual voters. It is also significant because its members are
pensioners or close to pensionable age. Their resentment at the
Chancellor's stealth tax on pensions must be one of the reasons why
they feel so strongly negative about him.

Re question:

Gordon Brown. That autistic, mongoloid scotch *** with extra emphasis
on the word ***. Should have been a traffic warden.

Patricia Hewitt. Useless, cover its own back at all costs, lying arse
hole. the archetypal politician.

Bliar's bag, Cherie. Not a politician as such, but deserves a special
mention for distinguished bastardism.
