Originally posted by DealorNoDeal View PostI've resigned myself to waking up on Fri 13th with that.
Such a missed opportunity by Labour not having an electable leader.
If, as seems slightly more likely, there is a narrow Tory majority, you can blame the Labour manifesto, not Corbyn.
IMHO the real nightmare would be a minority Labour government, with Lib Dem support (and again, without Corbyn). Then we would be in real trouble...Blog? What blog...?Comment

If they win the election, a possibility since too many people seem to have been taken in by Corbyn's doddery grandfather act, he will be gone in a matter of weeks.

The biggest problem that the Tories is the Lib Dem vote, because the Tories are basically at the level they were in the last election. If the Lib Dem vote collapses then it's a hung parliament.
The Lib Dems only need to swing 2 percentage points to Labour for a hung parliament.Last edited by BlasterBates; 26 November 2019, 11:00.I'm alright JackComment

The manifesto is just a reflection of Corbyn.Scoots still says that Apr 2020 didn't mark the start of a new stock bull market.Comment

There was more than one poll in the same week as the 2017 election which had the Tories with a lead of over 10%.
I would have a contingency plan.

Originally posted by malvolio View PostWell, kinda. Momentum found a figurehead that wouldn't oppose their extremist views: a "useful idiot" to use an old cold war term. He was elected mainly as a protest against the other candidates so was something of a gift, but we are where we are.Scoots still says that Apr 2020 didn't mark the start of a new stock bull market.Comment
