Week ending —
Britain Backs Greggs — And It's Not Even Close
Greggs crushes Pret in the great pastry poll. Starmer's approval slides, with Scotland at just 38%. National mood drops into 'Anxious' territory for the first time since November.
The sausage roll wars are over. With 156,000 votes cast — our biggest question ever — Britain has delivered its verdict: Greggs crushes Pret by 84% to 16%. The only surprise is that anyone's surprised.
The regional breakdown tells the real story. The North East came in at a frankly aggressive 96% for Greggs. Newcastle, it seems, would go to war over pastry. London was the sole holdout at 68% — still a comfortable majority, but enough to confirm every stereotype about the metropolitan bubble.
The Starmer question keeps sliding. He started January at 65% survival odds; he's now at 54%, with Scotland at just 38%. That's a 27-point gap between Scottish and London voters — the widest regional split we've recorded on any political question this year. The union may be intact, but the vibes are not.
National mood ticked down 4 points to 48 — officially crossing into "Anxious" territory for the first time since November. Volatility is up 12%. People are changing their minds faster than usual, which historically means something's brewing.
One prediction resolved: "Will it snow in London in January?" came in NO, and 71% of you called it correctly. Londoners themselves were split 50/50, proving once again that nobody knows less about London weather than Londoners.
Next week: the Starmer question closes on February 7th. Current trajectory has him below 50% by then. Lock in your prediction now — bragging rights await.
