I'm genuinely surprised that it's even money for either a Conservative majority and No Overall Majority. I can only assume that the Farage wildcard is factoring in, but ultimately I don't see him going full throttle against the Tories because he'd potentially only succeed in becoming the man who scuppered Brexit.

JC has been a most effective leader of the opposition, credit where it is due.

You are quite wrong, Corbyn agreed to an election when no deal was off and that is exactly what he did.

Carry on abusing people calling them commissars and marxists, we will see you on 12th December.

No-one in their right mind would vote for Johnsons deal.

With respect I have never concluded that framing someone in these terms is considered abusive.

Corbyn to my mind is a tyrant-backing, NATO-bashing marxist and his party propped up by the Lib Dems and SNP are the cast of no-hopers that have spent the last three years preventing Parlianment from getting anything done.

They're stuck between a rock and a hard place in that the Tories and Lib Dems have what is at least a somewhat clear message on Brexit. I'm not convinced that the average person has any idea what Labours take on Brexit is and that has to be a problem. They are massively up against it in this election, and personally I think if just about anyone else was leader they would stand a better chance. I'm not even saying it's entirely Corbyn's fault that he's viewed in such a way, but he's massively unpopular with the public.

This country is the most divided it has ever been in my lifetime and will take a generation to get back on track.

Your lot have been a shambles. 'Strong and stable' is f*cking laughable. You govern for yourselves and your party; not the country

You now have a Prime Minister looking to reverse the irresponsible cuts that his predecessors forced upon us and take credit for repairing the damage. The government debt continues to grow.

How anyone can *still* vote for the Tories is crazy. If only there was some decent opposition.

With the greatest of respect I take a totally alternative viewpoint which I suspect is not a surprise to you!

I certainly cannot accept the claim that Conservatives have not governed for the country when since April 2017 we have cut Income Tax for 31 million with the result that an additional 1.3 million of the lowest paid taken out of having to pay tax at all.This is just one example.

Regards the "Cuts", such a policy was not done out of spite but tough decisions had to be taken to bring the public finances under control.Responsible Governments make tough decisions, irresponsible ones spend money like it is going out of fashion and bring the economy to it's knees - just ask Corbyn!

I have to go out now so will bid farewell.At least we have debated our polarised opinions without any rancour or vitriol.Have a good day and don't forget the umbrella!

The 2 main parties have been woeful they are going to take big hits from lib dems and brexit party
People need to remember new Labour started to offer out Nhs contracts to the private sector first under Blair
Nhs for a population of 66 million and rising the economics are massive
Taxing the rich who probably pay private isnt the answer
