    They say that every election.

    People actually fall for that?

    How? Hope they are not relying on public transport, given how awful it now is in the local area, due to flooding, unreliable privatised railways and bus services, etc, if my recent experiences are anything to go on.

    Take a look at this they mention that they asked around 105,612 people across all the U.K. seats in the election but what they don’t tell you is that the number of people they asked from each constituency is only 160.

    Cor blimey is there any wonder why they couldn’t predict brexit or any of the other elections we have had, I’d hardly call that conclusive. I mean the Pepsi taste test and England’s bid to hold World Cup had more people asked than that.

    Then come Friday they will ask how can the YouGov poll be so wrong, gee I donno maybe if they asked the home fans instead of half the Rochdale fans they would get a better idea.

    And it gets better this was a super poll so the number they usually ask is far lower lmao

    I haven’t clicked on the link.
    If it’s from YouGov they have a margin of error anything up to 50 seats.
    They usually cover themselves by saying it could be a hung Parliament.
    YouGov called it right in 2017.
    If you want a better view look at Professor John Curtice, he’s not usually far off.

    Roll on Friday.

    John Curtice was the only one that thought Theresa May (remember her) would do badly in the 2017 election.

    Not bad for a left wing college lecturer.

    Yes, more analytical than hysterical. Something rare on the tv at the moment.

    Facially he reminds me if John Major

    It will be close but my predictions are

    Boris will get his majority
    Labour will have a much reduced support in the North
    Brexit Party will do well in the north but struggle south of Birmingham
    Lib Dem’s will win a few but will do relatively badly
    Swinson might just hold on to her seat, ditto the Lib Dem deputy
    Scot Nats will tread water
    Greens will continue to be an irrelevance

    Problem is mate within error of 50 seats can mean anything to be honest it could be Tory’s will get 270 to 370 if you give or take 50 seats and like I said the people asked is too small in my personal opinion.

    Also you said you gov got it right in 2017 but they did quite a few so it’s basically buying the whole book of 50/50 tickets and saying see I won.

    Thanks for the tip Casper I found that guys prediction

    Looks like what I thought would happen only I don’t think snp will get as many seats that he’s predicting a lot of Scots are annoyed with snp for trying to force another referendum against Scotland’s will then there’s those who want brexit

    it’s going to be a odd election I just hope healey gets sent to Universal credit
