Election: Tories 'would have to gain ground to stay still'

BBC News Channel

The Conservative Party will have to gain ground to maintain its majority in the event of a general election, politics professor Sir John Curtice has said.

He said the Lib Dems had been holding a "remarkably solid" 19% in the polls and it was also likely the SNP would win seats from the Conservatives.

"One of the things you have to realise is that simply in order to stand still, Conservatives will have to make some gains from Labour," he said.

Sir John said the Tories currently have an eight-point lead over Labour.

However, he said the battle would not be so much between Boris Johnson and Jeremy Corbyn, but "between Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage".

Mr Johnson has said he would prefer to leave the EU with a deal, while Brexit Party leader Mr Farage says getting Brexit over the line is more important than securing a deal.

Which suggests to me we are likely to have a similar make up of parliament as it is now. In other
words nowt will change re Brexit.

This is gonna rumble on folks...
