In Friday's @NavigatePol weekly roundup, I looked into the effect budgets have on the Government's polling figures. The answer? Hardly at all.
Average change in polling: -0.4 pts
Only 4 of the last 21 budgets have caused a shift greater than 2pts!
This week's Weekly Roundup is out...
Burnhing Gas | Train and Simple | Fiscal Attraction
The Government gave Jackdaw the green light this week, as Andy Burnham found time between decisions on Britain’s energy future to tackle the equally weighty matter of someone playing TikToks aloud on the train. From North Sea drilling to the quiet carriage, no brief is apparently too big or too small. But with the Budget coming next week, all eyes now turn to the Chancellor – whose announcements may prove rather harder to greet with a polite request to turn it down.
And do Budget's impact the polls? Head over to our website the find out what @electionmapsuk found looking at what the last six Chancellors' Budgets did to their Government's standings amongst the public. Spoiler alert: it's much easier to do wrong than right...
