Voters have a range of concerns when it comes to the Tories.
But when it comes to Labour, there's remarkable unanimity. With the exception of Labour Remainers, every other voter group (including Labour Leavers) see Jeremy Corbyn becoming Prime Minister as the number one concern!

This ties in directly with what I was saying the other day: Jeremy Corbyn is the ultimate Marmite politician.
He's adored by his supporters, loathed by everyone else.
Trouble is, the first group isn't and will *never* be big enough to win Labour a general election majority.

Is it fair? Irrelevant.
Does the media give him a hard time? Irrelevant.
Have people misunderstood him? Irrelevant.
In the large volumes we're talking about to swing a general election, there will never be a realistic way of persuading millions of voters to view him differently.

(The above forms a large part of why people despair of Labour.)
If Labour ever want a chance at majority government again, they're going to have to address this.
Since mass re-education of the electorate is out of the question, the only other option is to get rid of Corbyn.
