Ot- May calls for election in June.

[Andy_Faber]

I did point out some weeks ago that this is what you should expect from a Lynton Crosby orchestrated campaign...they deserve everything they appear to be in danger of getting for putting that particular individual in charge.
Corbyn has and is doing well although the Abbot factor remains. May seems to be wilting under the (self inflicted) pressure and I have to disagree Andy...any amount of Nuttall bashing is fine by me...the man is a dishonest, racist imbecile imo...not as dangerous as Aaron Banks though.

What do you disagree with, the message, the messenger or the retort?

Edit, sorry clearly the messenger, I meant the rest

[swaledale]

I've obvs clearly said the message! Though Nuttall is an imbecile, but not a problem unlikely to be a force worth worrying about.

[ramAnag]

Sorry Andy...Swale is right...Nuttall is too much of an imbecile to present a problem but I loath and detest all that he stands for including the rank stupidity that has caused such chaos within the political, economic and business communities of this country for approaching a year now. How much more might we have achieved over the last fifteen months or more had we not been so hopelessly sidetracked by Brexit? So Nuttall/UKIP bashing is fine by me although what follows to fill the post election void is worrying.

Not sure Abbot has 'gone' Swale...I've seen her do a couple of high profile interviews since the police figures fiasco. Tbf she did do a lot better but remains something of a liability as a potential Home Secretary imo.

If we all had a free £1000 bet who would you put your money on to win the election!

[roger_ramjet]

The SNP since they look potentially likely to hold sway in a hung parliament thus their agenda will hang over us like a sword of damocles

Whatever I bet on loses MoP...so I'll go for a slim Tory majority...possibly smaller than the existing 2015 one which has to beg the question...what a 'kin waste of time and money and what astonishingly poor political judgement from Ms. Strong and Stable.

I think the Tories will have enough, despite their really poor campaign. So that's where my money is. On the Turd Sandwich, rather than the Giant Douche (to paraphrase a South Park joke).

Still doubt it will make any difference in my area though (N Hants), Tory majority is stupidly massive. But maybe the floating voters and the student / social media types will be able to swing some of the more 50/50 areas making it a closer contest than Ms May was expecting.

Mayday has issued a Mayday call by reverting back to her being the only one who can negotiate Brexit to the best advantage of the UK!!
Too late, me duck!!
The remainers will swing to the Labour Party because they see a very soft Brexit or even a re-vote in that corner!!
So, gimme the grand, I'm up for a few more sheckells!!
Labour, nailed on!!

No hung Parliament. The polls are wrong again. Decisive Tory win.

I've said it would be hung Parliament from the off.
