I think somebody is regretting calling an election. Serves her right.

I just hope the SNP doesn't get its way whoever wins.

those polls are sooooooo different this time.

i would still argue for a clear but not overwhelming may victory, she got the reliable voters.

On a side note, it's amusing that the Mirror's pollster are showing the Tories 12 points ahead, and the Mail on Sunday's are showing the Tories only 1 point ahead

I remember back in 2015 Survation had a poll that had CON up 6% which was out of sync with every other poll so they did not publish it.  I guess they learned the lesson of not holding back even if it is out of sync with everyone else.

The Survation poll would probably give the Tories a majority once the DUP is added in and Sinn Fein is taken out. Also it would depend on swing levels in marginals.

That line seems to have changed to imagine how well a Justin Trudeau/Emmanuel Macron-type leader of the Labour Party would be doing.

Agree, that has changed. But he will, in all likelihood, still have been on the losing sides of two 'elections'.

Not really worth speculating on, given that in that circumstance the Brexit referendum might have had a different result; May might never have become PM; and even if she had, the polls might not have been showing the 20 point lead that inspired her to call the election in the first place

Well after the U.S. last year, France, and now the U.K., I think we know how to prevent terror attacks. Just don't have elections.

2 terrorist attacks in the span of a few days would seem be a huge failure on the Gov't

I would advise against that. It's too soon.

The closing message of Labour should be on police cuts.
