General Election

Unfortunately I think the Tories will scrape this too, SNP will get about 40 seats, if the Tories have to win it then I need them to win between 326-350 (got a few quid on it at 7/2).

 

However, get your money on May getting kicked as her position is untenable if the exits are anything to go by.

If Labour gain in Scotland it's down to corbyn alone. Scottish labour played no part.

I know we're talking about two constituencies here, but it is interesting that in the constituencies that have declared so far, Labour led the Tories by 36.4% in 2015, and by 35% in 2017.  That's a slight swing AWAY from Labour.

 

Sunderland Central will also be interesting.  Last time, Labour won that one by 27 percentage points.

Yep, agree with this. Think there's been a massive swing to Labour in Scotland due to Corbyn.

This thread is going to get well out of hand.

 

Love you all.

Certain posters have a history of dragging any thread down.

 

Lets hope people behave no matter how big the tory majority is or how many seats in scotland thd snp lose.

Harsh. I think Space Mackerel has people on this board who know him so i doubt he would lie that. Awful, getting so personal ffs.

 

Cmon lads, it is ****ing politics.

I think Corbyn is a labour leader who won't appeal to the traditional labour areas but very much to the labour voters in less traditional areas.

I just found it difficult to believe someone would make such a crass comment to someone about a disease a family member died from. Maybe that's how his mind works I've no idea. But he's a history of telling porkies and over exaggerating.

 

Anyway it's done. Don't want to sidetrack the thread

Tbf looking at many posts on this thread my language regarding MP's I dislike is quite moderate in comparison. Are you always so easily offended ? Or you just pissed off Don Corleone is a better boss than Capone? Lol

Most of them come from folk who are always at it, you are usually reasonable.

 

Your Corleone being better than Capone comment is the worst by a distance on this thread :laugh:

Ukip losing votes big style.

 

Still reckon the tories will hit 330 and the snp will drop to 35-38 seats.

 

Early days though.

All the bookies offering odds on for a Tory Majority of some sort. 3rd seat declared an in all 3 cases Tories doing far better than the exit poll suggested.

I've a sneaking feeling They'll scrape home, assisted by a handful of wins in Scotland to drag them over the line. Nuts.

No votes for Jackie Bird and Brian Taylor then? Surely a more attractive couple...

Yep, and my prediction was more favourable to the Tories than the exit poll prediction.

Might be something to do with the collapse of the UKIP vote in these constituencies with most returning to the Conservatives?

I have a nagging feeling that those exit polls cannot be relied on. Reckon you can use your winnings to offset the cost of your ST :) Or maybe :( if you would rather have a Tory meltdown.

Tory Majority odds back out to 4/6. Some legs in this yet. Apparently the YouGov poll has been most accurate so far and predicts an even worse night for the Tories than the BBC one. And a better night for SNP.

Couple of encouraging Labour vote gains from UKIP now. This could be incredibly interesting. Could be a record number of marginal seats all over the country.

Newcastle East has just declared looks like in this one Labour have gained from the UKIP share. Think that's how it's going to be all night, and different areas one or the other is going to get the UKIP vote

UKIP will collapse around the country, and the Conservatives will get most of those votes, but that effect seems to be more pronounced in the North-East of England than in other regions.  At an earlier stage in the election campaign, a YouGov series of regional opinion polls showed the Conservatives as gaining more in the North-East than in any other part of England.

Mmmmmmmm. Vote share +/- compared to Tories seems to be the detail to look at. I think on average Labour need to be getting about +8% to start making significant gains.

Swindon North & South were both solidly Labour in Blair's 3 wins. The Tories will easily win South as it's wealthier. The town voted 55% for Brexit.
