    I have been quietly and consistently buying Labour < 150 seats on Betfair around the 3.5 mark this week.

    I seriously think this will be a wipeout.

    Does anyone think Labour's polling will get better between now and election day?

    I really hate Corbyn right now - I truly do not like to treat the idea of anybody winning with mockery and contempt, not least because I'll feel like a right wally if they then do ok (even if they do still lose), but with polls like these I look like more of a prat if I don't assume a Tory landslide.

    The next most vulnerable by absolute value would be

    Aberdeen South
    East Lothian
    Edinburgh North and Leith
    Edinburgh South West
    Stirling
    Ochil and South Perthshire
    West Aberdeenshire & Kincardine

    The most amusing/outrageous tory gain would be in the western isles.

    Ignore the swing - it's really not impossible, although I expect the personal vote for Angus will keep him safe.

    Mirror ComRes has Tories hitting 50. This won't be a general election. It's going to be the murder of the Labour Party.

    Never before in the history of the Labour Party had such a mass of voters moved and suffered together. This was no disciplined march, it was a stampede, without order and without a goal, millions of people, ideologically unprepared, driving headlong away from the party. It was the beginning of the rout of civilization, of the massacre of the left wing.

    Richard Burton, War of the Worlds (2017 GE, amended version)

    Actually, I'm among the more optimistic about their chances.

    Nah. I can see that if they end up with a majority of less than 100 after all this excitement ramping up hopes, but in Scotland they've been down to 0 before, they've only had 1 for ages - even if they fall short of this remarkable prediction, to get six would send them into paroxysms of delight.

    "Let’s be clear: this is a mad one.

    It’s in the nature of collective hysteria that no single act can be adduced to prove its existence. But there is a fin de siecle, self-destructive, decadent craziness about Conference 2017. Somewhere in the wads of twenty somethings and thirtywouldbes jamming the chintzy Bournemouth bars long after they’re normally silent lurks the jitterbugging desperation of the Twenties before the Crash, Berlin between the wars, London as Imperial Glory died with its queen. The collective psyche of this group of individuals who’ve never had it so good has rarely been so uncertain.

    Perhaps the magnitude of the moment we face is too great for us collectively to bear. Shortly there will be an election, in which the Conservatives will increase their majority, and in so doing utterly shatter the glass paradigm of cyclical politics which has contained us for the century since 1906. This ought to herald another decade of strong, confident, consensual Tory government. Which will finally and irrevocably transform the nature of politics and civic life in Britain."

    Oh heck yes, ENL seems like no chance in hell in reality but it's what my model has spat out.

    It's a pure uniform swing model taking votes from Lab and UKIP and distributing them to Tory and then siphoning off some votes from SNP ad giving back to Labour.

    I'm interested to see the 12 seats Curtice has selected.

    So final bit of quick modelling of approx Scottish poll numbers

    Con 32%
    Lab 15%
    SNP 43%

    Gives 11 Con Seats in order of majority

    Dumfriesshire, Clydesdale and Tweeddale
    Edinburgh South
    Dumfries and Galloway
    East Renfrewshire
    Berwickshire, Roxburgh & Selkirk
    Aberdeen South
    East Lothian
    Edinburgh South West
    Edinburgh North and Leith
    Ochil and South Perthshire
    Stirling

    Aberdeen west and Kincardine? Much easier than most of these.
    Would be left with 3.5% majority. My model assumes zero LD-to-Con Switching which is why AWK isn't there.

    Andrew Picken‏ @andrewpicken1
    Replying to @andrewpicken1 and @Sunday_Post
    Prospect of another majority Tory Government bolsters indy cause as 37.9% of Scots say they are more likely to vote Yes if this is the case.

    Is that all? 37.9%?

    Presumably that will include a large chunk of those who we're going to vote Yes anyway....

    "I want to make this clear.

    The Liberal Democrats will not enter into any coalition deal with either Theresa May’s Conservatives or Jeremy Corbyn’s Labour party."

    Blimey, he's actually right about something. :D
    Interesting distinction. If Corbyn goes...!

    Tories don't want to peak too soon.

    May won't want a low turnout on election day, if voters think it looks like it's in the bag already.

    It will sour the milk.

    I think low turnout is a given, since the outcome is (unless everyone is very wrong) not in doubt whether its a 10 point lead or a 25 point lead. And given the highs today, either your advice is too late, or. No, it's too late.

    I think we are still waiting on the Times/Panelbase poll numbers?
  • AlastairMeeksAlastairMeeks Posts: 30,340
    The fact that there's a Survation Scottish poll also showing the Conservatives doing well is actually more interesting than a single freakish Panelbase poll.

    The Tories might be closer to the SNP in Scotland than Labour are to the Tories in the whole of the UK :o

    It's honestly hard to tell the difference between that CorbynSuperFan parody twitter account and Eoin Clarke. Frightening that one is serious.

    Which one do you think is serious?

    No point voting for them, then. If they'd taken that attitude in 2010 it would have been disastrous...

    As I said, it's a quick and dirty stupid model.

    William Hill have some very eccentric markets. For example:

    SNP Total Seats - SNP to win 39 or more seats 1.11

    One poll at least. That's all I can say
