Oh, no, that was the last Tory PM.
She only promised not to have a snap general election.
...but remember, lying about that is nothing compared to making a mistake about some figures, then apologising and correcting yourself.

for their own mistakes and wrong doing. Furthermore, her husband is making millions out of her position and influence. If she goes, it will be due to a mass revolt in the Tory Party.

I really have no idea why anyone listens to these polling companies anymore. They are so fundamentally dependent on turnout filters and other fudge factors (turnout almost entirely explains the systematic differences between polling companies), and the past is now a questionable guide to the future on turnout. Take the ICM poll tonight from the Mirror/Indy, for example. The headline lead is 11% CON. Before the turnout filter, it's 2% CON. Some of these companies are going to look very stupid come Friday. The problem is that a different set of companies look stupid every timeOriginally posted by BlasterBates View Post
