    I don't trust this. But you need to watch the actual results really hard, the betting always lags the actual votes.

    Right, now I've calmed down a bit - this has to mean large numbers of wins in Scotland for Labour - some of these must be very very close given the huge SNP majorities, so I can see it changing by 10 or so.

    Fallon probably shouldn't have mentioned how far ahead they looked.

    Exit must have lots of Con in Scotland.

    BBC said lots of Scottish seats are close to 50/50.

    That looks as if there is downside risk for Con.

    Second question - the local elections, Copeland, and more, showed the polls with Tories in the lead by a lot was not just polling talk - no longer can we say the campaigns don't change peoples' minds then, since millions would appear to have changed their minds in a very short time.
