Really that is tempting with so long to go.

Remember Headingly and Dennis Lillee getting such fantastic odds against an England victory, I think 500/1 !!

And look what happened.

Hilary Clinton has called Downing Street’s suppression of a report into potential Russian infiltration of British politics “damaging, inexplicable and shaming”.

Well, well

Yeah, I get a bit of that vibe.

Maybe she should write them an email.

Anyway isn't she too busy breaking glass ceilings?

I tend to agree. It'll surely mean that the Conservatives will hold onto all existing seats, and have more success in the Labour marginals. It's worth noting that plenty of disenfranchised Labour voters who would never consider voting Conservative will happily vote Brexit Party. So with that in mind, Labour capaculate votes in all directions.

The only real reply to this would be for Lib Dems and Labour to form some kind of pact, but they're not really on the same page so I can't see it happening.

Though as a counterpoint to my own post, here's some interesting polls comparing now to the same time in the 2017 campaign:

Current Polling Compared to This Time in the 2017 Campaign:

CON: 38.5% (-8.6)
LAB: 28.4% (-0.1)
LDM: 15.9% (+6.5)
BXP: 8.9% (+2.5)*
GRN: 3.7% (+0.7)

*Changes w/ UKIP vote


It could easily be argued that we're in a very different situation this time around and Labour won't make up as much ground in the same way as 2017, but it's something worth keeping an eye on.

Even if it was just random rather than a strategic move, this kind of method is only set to get more and more prevalent, domestically or internationally.

Must be the Russians....those former Marxists after the current ones.

But in seriousness, it is quite a worrying development.....Mind you I wouldn't be surprised if the boomers weren't even using Windows Defender.

I heard Corbyn's interview it sounds like he's getting his excuses in early.

She's not wrong to be fair, but it's like if Tony Blair decides that he thinks he needs to be heard on something, people just tune out.

I don't know how the Lib Dem's battle bus will affect the voting as I think that "Jo Swinson's Liberal Democrats" in huge letters on the side would put me off as it makes them sound like a rock band - Jeff Lynne's ELO perhaps
