Pathetic

That's a disgrace from the BBC.

Is the BBC still headed up by the Tory hard Brexiteer? Gibb I think his name was

That's a disgrace from the BBC.

They are nefarious biased outfit, not trustworthy to be the nations broadcaster. They will use their flag ship shows to try and influence... And then appear balance it with their lesser shows.
Glad i'm of an age and mind where the BBC influence was long dwindling due to other media, so its questionable agendas have not pickled my common sense to critique.

Yes, there's 2 more polls out tonight. All from companies that generally show big Tory leads (there is a split in pollsters, some have shown big Tory leads, others more moderate). That one of the "big tory lead" providers are falling into line is very telling.

Plug the numbers into the MRP and the Tories are lower than 290 and Labour are at least 270. And thats from a favourable provider.

I wont entertain yougov. I see them as outliers at best. They are fully weaponised and politicised.

With MRP though, there are two aspects. All the MRP essentially does, is translate headline data into seats. Their headline data is out. If you put an accurate headline figure in, then the MRP is is favourable for Labour (the swing point is about a 7% gap).

The best possible result for me is a hung parliament with no majority to push through Brexit, but no majority to rule either.

So I hope that this is true and not an outlier.

The sweaty veneer is rusting. Interesting to see a move of remain voters to Labour.

What happens then? Another referendum to get brexit deal through parliament ?
