Yes, very I hope they start to get a kicking in the polls. It will focus minds. Things always end badly when a party tries to replicate the policies of other parties and ditch their core vote. You end up asking the question: why am I bothering to vote for Labour-lite, when I can vote for full-on car crash Labour proper?
Thing is, May does not want to depend on old Tory voters who she will help to die out with reduction in winter allowance, so she is betting on robbing the very people who elected Tory Scum and who voted for Brexit in order to give some handouts to "worker" class voters of Labour.
Shows how competent they are when they publish a manifesto without seemingly any market research beforehand. How hard is it for them to pop down the nearest Conservative Club and see what the reaction is from their core voters.
I re-iterate my viewpoint that they don't want to win the election. Let Labour worry about how to deal with brexit.
Cameron didn't hang around after the vote was to leave, and May is now wanting to find some other mug to throw the hot potato at. Sometimes the puppet doesn't like the strings they attach, even though they only use suckers.
Obviously the reason is that the Government pays one or two home care mega-corporations say £2000 a week per caree, and these companies then hire zero hours contract temps, probably unqualified, and pay them a minimum wage of a tenth that to actually do all the work, all this to make sure retired MPs can get juicy chairmanships, directorships in said companies
Not sure why sitting people in the corner and forgetting to feed them costs £50k a year? ...

... It's a tough one. With people living longer and longer it's unsustainable. ...
That and the fact that the traditional age division of wealth, with (typically) working age people prosperous and pensioners as poor as church mice, is rapidly being turned on its head, with the old timers benefiting from rises in property prices and full salary pensions, and younger working people finding it ever harder to obtain lucrative and secure employment.
"The UK's seat at the negotiating table will be filled by me or Jeremy Corbyn. The deal we seek will be negotiated by me or Jeremy Corbyn.
"There will be no time to waste and no time for a new Government to find its way. So the stakes in this election are high… We need someone representing Britain who is 100 per cent committed to the cause, not someone who is uncertain or unsure, but someone utterly determined to deliver the democratic will of the British people.
36bn is not that much in the grand scheme of things.
Nice big figure to cause panic though hey!
Good try - 5.5/10
Try reading the article. I know exposure to the Indy induces seizures in Daily Mail readers but you only needed to look at the headline an 1st paragraph.
Here, I'll quote it for you.

Losing access to the single market in services after Brexit could cost the British economy up to £36bn a year and have a particularly negative impact on financial services, telecoms and transport, a new report concludes.
