Who is foolish enough to trust one poll result that just happens to back what they want to happen?

Most likely, there's rather a lot of suspicious (and rude/stupid) 'new/old/troll' accounts. I doubt they'll evaporate post election day though.

Not according to those who would wish to be moderators
It's discussed in the website feedback thread. I gave up

it is ok they will clear up past 10pm tomorrow.

It's not the only poll which has shown the lead is narrowing though is it? This trend is largely down to the toxic campaign Johnson has led in my opinion. Election day can't come soon enough.

Yep. I can't wait until 7am tomorrow when I can get breakfast done .

[Halb]

I'm still choosing my drinks.

start with hoegaarden and tesco shandy (or old mout...or maybe redorkolig)
then those steamboat (lime, southern comfort, lemonade) tesco tins
then most likely homemade white russians.
I'm not going to waste my irish monk mead on this stshow

This... he’d have been better off going on holiday somewhere remote for the last month. Every time he pops up somewhere, he tends to do or say something that puts him that bit closer to being unelectable.

Imagine if Labour weren’t fielding an even more unelectable candidate...

Exit poll will be interesting, wonder how accurate it's likely to be again.

Usually more accurate than opinion polls or guesses on forums!

[Halb]

I just hope they set up prof curtice in an appropriate setting....lots of bottles bubbling, vials of different coloured chemicals, a chained trunk with banging coming from the inside, maybe an igor lurking in the background

and someone willing to eat a hat, or other item of clothing

For sure. I remember a lot of disbelief last time when the clock struck 10.

Yeah, I think starting light is the way to go.

If the Conservative majority is large, the result will be called before 2:30am. I will plan to go at least that time and make a decision whether to go to bed or not.

I'll watch the exit poll, a few mins of response then got to bed until 5ish when the true results will be flowing.

Me too.

Gotta be up early-ish Friday and nothing really happens in the first few hours.

Indeed. That's another reason why 2025 will be very different once Corbyn has gone. Probably the last Conservative government for a long time.

So who do you think will replace him to take on the Tories?

This,

Momentum and the Unions are not suddenly going to disappear from the Labour NEC or as their principle backers any time soon. My bet is they will "double down" on Corbyn & then the whole movement will fk about arguing amongst themselves for at least 3 years.

Another option is that Labour splits which might be possible but it will only happen if someone like D Miliband leads it. The rest of them are too chicken to try it. They had vote(s) of NC in Corbyn & then all just sat there and did nothing when he said "so what!?"

Wonder if johnson has the balls to loosen the grip of skull head Cummings & look like someone who has confidence & conviction in his policies & faces andrew neil....salt of the Earth boris is lol my god...Churchillian I think NOT!

Decent Bloke...well as long as you don't ask his kids, if they know they are his or his estranged wife...I wonder if its a 1st in British history, a sitting Primeminster in No10 with his mistress whilst married to another woman who is now left alone to bring up their children alone!
What a role model!
PS Please exuse my fervour to get the reality to Vaud & co

Surely a split would just hand it all to the conservatives. The youth voting for momentum and JC the older voters not willing to change from voting red. It would give the Lib Dem’s another opportunity to rise in popularity but as we’ve seen they easily threw away any gains they were going to make.

Stongking!

Could be worse



Remember, this is the party that ignored the Rotherham grooming gangs to keep their vote.

Incest is just a Freudian slip...
