Is there a consensus on here that the Conservatives under PM Theresa May are on the brink of their own version of the 1997 general election?

I asked several people I know when I visit London about this whole fox hunting business.  No one is able to explain to me why is this such a controversial issue.  Is it related to animal rights?  If so then why is, animal testing, for example not something  that is a hot topic?


I'm not British, but while animal rights is definitely part of it, I would hazard to guess that class resentment (fox hunting has long been a sport for the aristocracy for centuries) is what gives this issue its spice relative to everything else.  It's a symbol.

YouGov: Con 49, Labour 31, LDem 9, UKIP 3, Others ??
ComRes: Con 48, Labour 30, LDem 10, UKIP 5, SNP 4, Greens 3
Opinium: Con 47, Labour 32, LDem 8, UKIP 5, SNP 5 Greens 2
ORB: Con 46, Labour 32, LDem 8, UKIP 7, Others ??

At which point can we confidently predict Conservatives winning a minimum of 400 seats in the House of Commons?  The percentages presented here seem to suggest that would be the outcome.
