The only question is: after the inevitable debacle, will Corbyn have the decency to resign? And if he doesn't, will the Labour base have the sense to throw him out?

As I've mentioned somewhere, part of me thinks that Corbyn remains leader to spite Labour at this point.

oh for the love of god

The tories need to get some advice from TRUMP on how to win elections.

They have Jim Messina, who can actually do it and win the popular vote...

Jim Messina is also the guy who advised Renzi on the constitutional referendum... Tongue

But anyway, I'm pretty sure Tories are underpolling and in the end they'll still win by 7-10.

Oh for f**k's sake, this is depressing.

Who gives a sh*t about politics, having these kinds of attacks rhythm an election campaign isn't good for anyone.

Just don't expect anyone to be sorry when it gnaws away and your insides and leaves you a worthless emotionally barren husk.

For some people in this thread, I think that's already too late.

This was supposed to be the brexit election and it have barely been discussed..

not discussed, yeah, cause i think everyone knows, there is nothing to be won atm.

but....the brexit was THE power play of this election...look:



Fascinating that there doesn't seem to be any correlation. Talk about a cross-cutting cleavage.

And Labour will end this campaign without a single poll lead.

Did anyone expect otherwise?

Tories are pulling away post terrorism.

Huh what? I've seen all sorts of movements in either direction (and none at all).

But I'm sure that after tomorrow, when the Tories predictably win a majority of 50 or so, people will start rewriting history and act like Labour was about to win in a landslide until the attack happened and people suddenly shifted back. Roll Eyes

Labour was surging in every poll and now they're dropping in some. YouGov they dropped 3. Not to mention Corbyn's been knocked totally off message since he wanted to talk economic policy.

NO THEY WEREN'T, the polls haven't shown any clear movement since the past two weeks at least.

Relatively well for Labour in this election will be gaining seats overall...

The most likely is still that they lose a few dozens. For crying out loud let's not get our hopes up pointlessly.
