February 8: Barnstorming the East Midlands to speak with voters about the need for a Brexit, jobs and immigration control. The skies are cloudy and grey, but as the music takes hold, sun begins to emerge and we see people, old and young, from all walks of life, on the move; in their homes, their neighborhoods, their schools, and their workplaces. There is a visceral feeling of dynamism and action.
Over this montage, we hear Theresa May's voice. You know first hand how difficult it has been to make ends meet, to balance the cheque book, and make sure that your kids are looked after. We have to get Britain on track again, we have to deliver a better future. As the music reaches a high point, we cut to a montage of Theresa May meeting with voters, talking about their concerns and visiting their homes; along with this, we see high profile regional figures, like Boris Johnson campaigning in London and Ruth Davidson in Scotland.
We are going to energize our economy and energize our country. We cut to Theresa May speaking to small business owners on the campaign trail; as the voice over continues, the policies appear on the screen in accompaniment. Cut to footage of young couples with their new families, playing in their homes. Our plans to fix the education system will see the greatest amount of choice possible given over to parents about their children's education, and not in the hands of Whitehall. Footage now of Theresa May and the Conservative Shadow Cabinet touring workplaces and meeting with industrial workers.
We cut to Theresa May standing outside as the sun emerges, facing the camera. We wan to enhance freedoms and choices for every man, woman, and child in our country and get the government and politicians out of the way.
This is our vision, for a strong, responsible, stable government; but there is another option. The tenor of the music changes to a fast and ominous track as we cut through dark flashes of John McDonnell, Nick Clegg, and Paul Nuttall.
They have both delivered the same empty promises and bad government, and will do so again. Cut to archive footage of Paul Nutall responding to May's attacks, claiming to believe in fairy tales and media coverage of proposed NHS privatization. They complain about taxes, yet want to increase them; they attack the NHS, yet want to sell it off; they are a one-issue party and yet want to govern a country of sixty-seven million people. They don't have a plan, and frankly don't have a clue.
Hard work, families, communities, a good, positive way of life for us and the next generation. By voting Conservative on February 9, we can deliver that future: together. Nuttall responds to May: "Mrs. May is just flat out lying at this point. She's grasping at straws because her campaign is going horribly. May is lying and should apologize immediately. May can say that we have no plan all she wants but it has been proven time and again that she is willing to say anything to get elected.
She is willing to lie to our working-class and say that the Tories have their backs while their austerity policies will kill their local communities. She says that we want to privatize the NHS and cut government programs that help our people. That is a lie, flat out lie and it's a shame that the gentle lady from Maidenhead is saying this.
Everybody knows what the Tories want for our NHS, they want eventual privatization, they've had the same policy for decades and Mrs. May is just lying to our people for votes. He must try to repair his favorability ratings among independent voters, which were eroded by a bruising primary campaign. He must try to close a gender gap that shows women supporting President Obama by a wide margin. But more fundamentally, Mr. Romney must begin the nuts-and-bolts work of setting up a general-election campaign.
In crucial battleground states, the Romney camp must hire staff and open field offices, woo volunteers and knock on doors. By contrast, the Obama campaign has been laying the groundwork for the general election for some time. Although Mr. Romney has the time and resources to catch up, the president has already plowed millions of dollars into the beginnings of a ground game that stretches from battleground Ohio to long-shot Arizona to safely-Republican Wyoming.
Special interest groups and news media can provide momentum-boosting endorsements — but gaining them may cost scarce political capital. The closer they are to your candidate on an issue, the more likely they are to provide an endorsement.
In addition to the general election, President Forever includes the option to start in the primaries, and includes all the major Republican candidates, as well as the option to run Hillary Clinton against the incumbent President in Think Hillary Clinton could do better than Barack Obama? Curious if Chris Christie could join the Republican fray and win?
Now you can experiment and see. While moving to the center can help attract voters, there is also a chance existing supporters will leave after a dramatic policy shift. Tracking polls allow you to gauge public support and opinion on campaign issues. Positive poll numbers can help gain much-needed momentum and sway undecided voters. You can also gain insights into the electorate through polling, and use them to hone your ads or speeches.
Better ads take more time and cost more money. The more they run, the more they cost. Carefully tailored advertising can build a campaign, but ineffective ads may waste valuable resources. Be careful — attack ads can tarnish opponents but can also backfire. From time to time, candidates are offered the chance to give interviews. These may help or hurt the campaign depending on attributes such as knowledge and charisma. Be careful! This strategy can backfire if caught.
Almost everything in an election costs money. Run out, and your campaign will grind to a halt. January 12th-Clegg ends whirlwind week with visit to Brewery. Plymouth, South West.
Chancellor Corbyn Heads to the North-West. John McDonnell Campaigns, and Stuff. End of Turn One:. In the News:. The Guardian : Tough start for the Prime Minister. Despite launching quite an ambitious manifesto leading to concerns about the cost of some of the Labour spending proposals and taking the battle to Yorkshire, many appeared to have been disappointed by Mr.
McDonnell's starting performance, buried under constant attacks and more visibility for Mrs. May and Mr. A more interesting impact was brought by the brilliant performances of Chancellor Jeremy Corbyn and Home Secretary Lisa Nandy, whose performances both rallied their base in the North West of England and, particularly, give a needed boost to Labour in Scotland as the SNP has a disastrous first week.
While Labour is on the retreat due to fire being focused from all sides, this could prevent a rise from a Green Party which has truly parked their tanks on Labour's ground Daily Telegraph : May goes all or nothing.
We can claim with certainity that this first week of campaign was a victory for Theresa May. Launching a vocal pitch on the economy, Mrs. May has bravely thrown herself into the Labour heartlands to win voters who have never gone Tory before, and polling suggests she is beginning to succeed in the task of renewing her party's image. However, we on the Telegraph express out deepest concern about the evident turn towards the center by Mrs.
May, including policies that cause us concern such as her bold plans for tuition fees and working class measures. Such a gamble could win the election for the Conservative Party, but also lose it for them. The Independent : Cleggmania is back. Once again, Mr. Clegg has shown that he has a special quality to him matched by very few current politicians.
Despite his involvement in the Brown coalition, his VONC against John McDonnell appears to have stop any damage for the Lib Dems, and an effective first week has seen both a compelling narrative, a responsible manifesto a strong pitch as why the Lib Dems should be considered a future serious party of government.
We applaud and defend these measures as a proper reformist agenda for Britain, but we question whether Mr. Clegg is being entirely wise by scaling down past Lib Dem proposals on tuition fees. We could easily see parties such as the Greens or Labour exploting this, which can only lead to Daily Express : Nuttall tells it like it is.
And just as the Conservatives prove once again too weak on the European Union and immigration, UKIP finally has a chance to make the Eurosceptic voice heard through the promise of a referendum. Reviled by many on British politics, Mr. Nuttall has nonetheless begun to strike a successful populist note with working class voters, particularly those who voted Labour before as UKIP launches a daring assault on the Labour heartlands of the North.
While we believe Mr. Nuttall ought to be more outspoken on the campaign trail, his setpiece speech against Labour was a blistering indictement of a disastrous agenda for Britain held by the current Prime Minister Sunday Mail : Loony Nats aim for the Moon. Few parties have had such a starting election week as the SNP.
