Polling by More in Common, a think tank, that I have seen suggests that while inflation remains the main enemy in the public's eyes, concerns about interest rates is on the rise. Worryingly for Sunak, the mortgage crisis could entrench his image as being “out of touch”. Luke Tryl, UK director of More in Common, told me: "When asked about competence or honesty, Sunak polls far ahead of Boris Johnson. But his achilles heel continues to be the question of whether he can relate to people's everyday lives - with red wall voters, in particular, more likely to assume that Boris rather than Rishi can relate to them. That could become a bigger problem for the prime minister as the mortgage crunch starts to bite ushering in a second wave of the cost-of-living crisis, with the public already asking whether he truly understands their struggles."

A More in Common poll shared exclusively with Playbook puts Labour up a stonking 5 points since May on 47 percent, with the Conservatives down 3 on 28 percent. The Liberal Democrats are also down 3, to 10 percent. Full stats here. Worryingly for Sunak, cost of living is named by 74 percent of voters as a pressing concern. The only glimmer of light for the Tories is a stat showing Sunak and Starmer neck and neck on preferred PM, with both on 34 percent.
