    Going to be a weird one this. You’re going to get life long Labour brexiteers who will vote Tory to get Brexit done and vice versa life long Tory remainers will vote Labour to try and stop Brexit.

    Honestly I think labour will still get in my area the mp could be a pig with a criminal record of raping piglets so long as he’s under Labour it will still win, labour has held Wath seat for over 100 years. I get the whole Maggie thatcher argument but our mp was labour then too and as far as I can see labour Tory’s Lib dumbs are all self serving ass wipes.

    I just find It sad that people don’t vote for a change And it’s same in hard core Tory areas I know. It’s still depressing

    I'll be amazed if the Tories can't win by a healthy majority against the communist Corbynistas whose proposed policies are truly frightening. Many Labour voters are fearful of Venezuela Mark 2 and will probably abstain rather than vote Tory. It will be interesting how Nigel Farage tackles this but i expect a low turnout.

    If this is all about "getting brexit done", I can't really get my head around the fact that Johnson got approval for his deal and although it might have gone a couple of weeks past his precious 31st, why didn't he just allow scrutiny and then a vote to get that deal approved?

    He was concerned about the amendments that Parliament would seek to make to the bill - attaching a confirmatory referendum and the like - and that some MPs would withdraw their support at the third reading if itheir favoured amendment(s) did not succeed.

    I don't know who I am going to vote for and suspect that I won't be alone in that. The worry has to be that we will be left with another minority government and further inertia.

    At least the poll is on a Thursday though. Having Friday off after my election night 'do' makes more sense.

    Massive respect to the lib dems for being the only party with a clear message on Brexit, while all the other parties are hedging their bets and trying to schmooze a vote out of everyone by being vague.

    Voted Labour all my life but the Lib dems are much more Socialist now than the elite middle class bigots of the Labour party.

    I voted leave but I will vote Lib Dems for the first time simply because they have got the
    b alls to put their cards on the table.

    Hopefully the Labour party will be destroyed once and for all and a new party for working people, run by working people will emerge from the ashes.

    But the Lib Dems keep spouting democracy when they are adamant on acting against what the majority voted for, this to me is a "we know better than you' attitude.

    The lib dems only declared their hand about revolking brexit to win cheap votes because it,s the only way they will get marginally more votes than their usual paltry amounts. Hopefully the voting public will have seen right through their insincere tactics
    I know you like a good wind up so i,ll assume you,re doing it again
