Tax Cuts and Green Plans Divide Parties as Voters Seek Decisive Leadership
- Politicians are struggling to make decisions on tax cuts (Conservatives) and green investment plans (Labour's £28bn proposal)
- There are reasonable arguments on both sides for and against these proposals
- Constant changes in messaging risk confusing voters and showing indecisiveness
- Clear communication and justifying any U-turns will be key to maintaining credibility
- Voters feel politicians like Sunak and Starmer lack conviction and control over core issues
