Has anybody changed their mind since Parliament was dissolved? If so, why?
I hadn’t made up my mind then and still don’t know who I’m going to Vote for, for the first time though I’m considering voting tactically
Same. It will be nothing but a protest but my local TBP candidate does atleast hail from the constituency he's standing in unlike the LD and Tory candidates which live in London, I'm not sure the LD candidate has ever even been here.
I'm going to vote probably the exact opposite of you, my local has an independent running, local guy but his policies are basically The Brexit Party's rebranded and he's campaigning on a 'Clean Brexit" whatever that is, but it's the Brexit we 'all' voted for apparently.

The truth is he's a bit of a joke, looks a mess and has a poor track record as a politician. The country simply can't trust him to lead the country which is a real problem for him.
What does that say about the other party leaders who are trailing Boris by quite a margin?

Likewise, 15 ex-Labour MPs say the same thing.

What on earth is this? Have these people never experienced human interaction before?

Totally unelectable I'm afraid.

Spoilt ballot with none of the above it is then, for the first time ever.
Same.
Yep.

Not one of my three candidates deserves my vote, so a spoilt ballot it is from me.
Don't bother. just extra work for the polling staff tomorrow, of which I am one.

Very true, How many Conservative MPs recently left because of Boris Johnson? 21 was it?.

Laura Kuenssberg just reported on Politics Live that postal votes are dire for Labour, dire is her word not mine (but I hope she's correct). Does anyone get sight of the postal votes prior to the count?
Maybe it was a daydream she just had ?

Did she look absolutely ecstatic when she said it ?
She was referring to Tower Hamlets where they have already announced the final result.
To be fair, I've just realised I had an Abbottesque moment this morning, what the lovely Laura actually said was "pretty grim", not "dire". She also said both sides (Con and Lab I assume) had told her that.

Is that H123, having a cry because the EU wants Boris to win (says something when a block of 440m want a BREXIT supporting PM to win)... the EU abandoned you son.
Did the EU say that?

Link?

Would their reasoning be that Boris and Co are at least human/rational whereas Corbyn and co are a bunch of fking idiots?

No, they didn't and some of them grovelled to come back.

This is an idea that might get trashed or die in a ditch, however, here goes...

Would it be a good idea if this thread (or another new one) from tomorrow only dealt with news about the election, rumours, polls, exit polls, seats won and so on.

We've had weeks or arguing about which side is more awful than the other. Tomorrow is the day that counts. This thread would be a good place to follow the action, without talking about which party deserves to have won and arguing about young children on coats etc.

Dreading another 5 years of brexit, Boris and not being able to get a bloody GP appointment in the same month.

A hung parliament is possible, that seems like the best bet. Can't allow the Tories free reign.

A hung parliament will drive more uncertainty and nothing would get done at all.
A narrow majority would not given them free reign.
