We're screwed, my middle-aged sounding boards (educated, middle class, professional women - who went for brexit by a margin of 2-1) delivered their verdict: May is weak, can't be trusted (u-turns) and they were not impressed with the debate dodging. Corbyn seems friendly, is principled, but seems to live in the world we'd all like to live in, instead of the one we actually do. They all voted Con in 2010 & 15, but are splitting: 1 4th party, 1 Lab, 1 LD.
What this may mean is that the Tories are losing ground in safe seats, but gaining significantly in marginals (most likely imo), or that Corbyn really is advancing. Personally my vote is probably going to go 4th party, so that he keeps his deposit.0 -
as has been said how will you get strong growth to pay for VAT cuts if you are raising corporation tax. that will stifle growth . it's the economics of the madhousealex. said:The McDonnell VAT policy is not a promise, it appears to be an aspiration, funded by future economic growth (which obviously isn't going to happen, other than where it is created by government spending). Marr should be able may him look ridiculous within a couple of questions tomorrow.

The EMA after the six polls is Con 44.1%, Lab 36.0%. Con maj 40.AndyJS said:
The average of tonight's polls isn't far off 45/35. As I posted below, it's 43.7/36.5.FrancisUrquhart said:
Imagine for a second if Messina polling has had Tory 45% throughout and Labour never above 35%. And with no special info, I have just hypothesizing from the campaign that is a logical conclusion.SeanT said:Speaking as the Honorary Life President of Her Majesty's Guild of Bedwetters, I feel a lot calmer today.
The Tories have a 7-9 point lead, on average. Add on a couple of points (for the reasons cited below) and they are headed for a comfortable and increased majority.
It's difficult to imagine what might happen now that will change this. The Zulu surge has stopped. Silence reigns as the corpses rot. The Tory redoubt is battered, but unbroken. Michael Caine is sweating with relief in the burning bushveld sun, and Lynton "Hooky" Crosby is paring his nails with his blooded bayonet.
If that is the result, we are all going to look like right plonkers.
However if they are wrong, oh fuckty fuck....there is going to be blue on blue murder.0 -

Always a risk with having a leader in a 'marginal' seat. Hastings and Rye are a little bit bohemian and a little bit 'moved out of London' these days. In the event of a strong Lab leader and a decapitation strategy Rudd might be at risk 5 or 10 years from now.HYUFD said:

From what I understand, the only people with more accurate demographic data of individuals in the US is Facebook. And that is because a) people volunteered huge amounts of that and b) quietly Facebook have spent $100 millions buying every possible piece of data on you they can get their hands on.Casino_Royale said:

I have to say, if Corbyn wins it won't be all bad. Firstly someone with actual talent will have to become Con party leader, and secondly I will be £50k less in debt over the next three or so years, then I can hop on a plane to Canada/Ireland (I'm a citizen) etc.0

Can we please remember a few things:
1) Not one poll has shown Labour in the lead once the sample is weighted;
2) Not one poll has put the Tories below 40%;
3) Only one poll has put Labour above that figure.
If those remain true, Labour are still on course for defeat.
Also:
1) The majority (almost all) polls show the Tories in the mid-40s, and this has never wavered;
2) Almost all polls put Labour in the 30s, mostly the mid-to-low thirties, and their vote is volatile because it varies according to turnout filters;
3) Although Labour have improved their share, this is hardly surprising given that they were going through a very bad time just before the election and Corbyn was once again looking shaky. Calling the election has put questions over his leadership to bed for the duration and rallied the party behind him. No wonder things look better. This has also killed off talk from people (including me) who had begun to think another two years of the Jezziah would be the end of Labour.
4) Almost all Labour's gains seem to be non-voters (spot the problem) or from minor parties. There is no direct switching to them from the Tories, which there has to be for them to do well.
Adding all these together I think a Tory landslide is still the likeliest outcome. I'm hoping it doesn't happen because Labour being cut in half would make it much easier for another far-left loon to win the leadership when Corbyn resigns and I want a proper opposition. But it could be May wins by a wider margin in the vote than Blair did on this polling, although possibly not by such a wide margin of seats.
Remember, if Corbyn does achieve 35% he will have done better than any other Labour leader elected in the last 40 years - bar one. And this despite being the weakest, most corrupt, stupidest and most dishonest of them all. I can't see it.0 -
