Don't really see how Indy going against Labour is /that/ 'significant'. Now that we know their owner is a non-dom, and looking at Labour's policy on non-dom the situation there is pretty much similar to the Barclay Brothers agenda at the Telegraph. It gives Labour one less ally in the press, which increases Labour's uphill battle to get any kind of positive press coverage, but that's about it. I don't think the public take notice of who newspapers endorse, these days. I think we saw how limited newspaper influence was in the last election.

'Why are you so bothered? Your ground game is going so well you will have a majority on Friday, why worry?'
Maybe IOS met some real voters to - day ?
YouGov/Sun poll tonight - Labour and Tories are tied: CON 33%, LAB 33%, LD 10%, UKIP 12%, GRN 5%
Several PBers have good money on the Nats !
LAB - 33% (-)
UKIP - 12% (-)
LDEM - 10% (+1)
GRN - 5% (-)
I would love to see some England only polling on whether Scotland should be given the boot.
LOL at the Tory campaign,
And YG - this is why the election is still too close to call, although it is bank holiday polling.
'A combo of non-dom owner and that f*cking Rentoul, Blair's arselicker !'
Your even more flustered to - day, calm down dear it's bad for your health !
Goodnight.
Thank you.

Tory press ? You are part of the Tory press !
Tories, totally ineffective nonsense
Labour, more nonsense, albeit probably more effective nonsense
Lib Dems, what campaign
Result a boring election campaign, when the actual outcome is so nail bitingly close.
It is amazing how Ed has a direct line into plans SO secret that even the Tories have no knowledge of them!
What a twat....
Its only soul destroying if you don't like the result. Cherio Dave :-)
I actually don't think anything particular is happening, or will happen before Thursday, except that the remaining don't knows are trickling off the fence both ways in roughly equal numbers, leaving the tie virtually unchanged compared with a 7% Tory lead in 2010. There is some residual tactical voting and vote-swapping in marginals, but the main Lab/Con voting blocs are completely solid. Had a plaintive voter today say he's been canvassed by us three times in a few months as we try to make sure of our vote - "Why won't you take yes for an answer?"
Met various other people switching the right way for us - either to Con from LibDem or from LibDem to Labour - both of which work for us Cons in Torbay! If that is indicative of any wider picture, then.....
Plus our phone calls checking on our postal vote pledges are showing they are absolutely rock solid in sending them back already. No slippage...
In such margins our ground game will hopefully do the trick.
Cherio Dave
But I do think the Tories are between 1-3% ahead in votes, and will be so on the day, and YouGov has not only failed to pick this up but has also not-picked-this-up in a shatteringly tedious and relentlessly dull way.
I hope these daily poll stop after the election. For good.
LOL
Which one is Mayweather ? And which seat is the bellwether.
Seriously though it is going to be very interesting to see what the final phone polls say this week - if they still have 4%+ Tory leads they could be in for a good night, but if those polls narrow towards the online polls then it's going to be tight and we can probably conclude that the "Edstone" was not the tipping point/ "Sheffield Rally" moment that the majority on here have claimed it would be.
I reckon that theres a you gov poll for London tomorrow. Lets see how that goes.
And I made no claims about tonights polls or any mention of Ed Stone being his Sheffield Rally moment.
It was the last hurrah of the PB Tories excitedly bashing away at their keyboard without a care in the world.
Turn it round in 48 hours guys.. turn it round.
That's to IOS. Apologies if not clear. Maybe Ed will be PM but the incessant hubris and ludicrous comments are juvenile at best and plain stupid and unpleasant at worst.
Tories back into 3 point lead by June.

With unnamed candidates the polls showed a Lib Dem gain . After nominations closed they changed their polling to named candidates and then correctly forecast that the Conservatives would hold the seat .
For every one of me there are 10 PB Tories. And the difference is I am going to be right.
Oh for the days when everyone was so certain on here that the campaign would tear Ed apart.
LOL LOL LOL
Obviously I would want the party ahead to be the Tories but increasingly that is not the priority.
Cue polls suggesting different results entirely.
Edit: I think they should print every paper which front to back is left leaning, and back to front is right leaning, like those old comic books which had two stories printed, with front covers on both sides. IDK, Clegg has seemed the more punchy in this campaign as far as I can tell. Ed's had some moments like that, but on the whole I've thought he was making a Mr Super Reasonable and laid back sort of pitch.
LOL - ah the Murdoch press that fine objective organ.
Give over.
Your mum says it's time for bed.
(Not really, I just wanted to get back to the SNP sharing Tory values, concerns and priorities. Please dont let this be a wind-up now, I'm having so much fun.)
Furthermore, take note that the Sheffield hypothesis (now subsumed in the EdStone conjecture) has always said that ed's crapness will not shift votes between parties, it will simply discourage thick and lazy Labour voters* from getting their lardy arses down to the polling station. And it will.
*I would never suggest that Labour voters are thick and lazy, but Surbiton says they are.
All hail Lynton!
PS Crosby just sent me a private mail saying his new new election forcaster model says Tory mosts seats 100% probability, Tory Majority 200% probability. He was right after all.
Common lets bet. You say Con 37% I will give you 2-1 against.
LET'S GO
EdmundinTokyo developed an MS gizmo, back in the day, which would let one highlight one's fave posters and switch off the yawns. I miss that.
