Rock The Boat 1,326 Posted November 13, 2019 2 hours ago, Bill said: An update "A Survation opinion poll gives the Conservatives a 6-point lead today, the lowest since early October – so does this mean the election race is becoming closer? Survation puts the Tories on 35 per cent and Labour on 29 per cent, a result that could give Boris Johnson a majority of just 18 seats, according to the model used by the Electoral Calculus website. " And with the tactical voting already suggested then i would certaintly lead to no party having a majority, Survation are fairly accurate as their model is to focus on 'certainty of voting' rather than just 'who will you vote for'. But it is still only a snap shot of a few thousand a month before the vote. However the trend does seem to be of the Tory lead slowly decreasing, though I uspect we are yet to see the effect of Farage bottling it - which if as the right have been claiming was made up a huge amount of former Labour voters it should see an increase for both. But with a month to go there's 'many a slip between cup and lip' Any news on that we are not leaving story? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rock The Boat 1,326 Posted November 13, 2019 1 hour ago, Bill said: selective polling ? whereas your own rogue poll is not selective 😂 and Survation has proven to be far more accurate than all the others, however even then there were plenty enough conditional comments included in my post but given how you have been wrong every time I will accept that you have a point that you must be right at some point ps are you still pro socialist or was that yesterday otherwise I shall bid you adios as there s little to be gained from engaging with an habitual liar/fantasist A rogue poll?

Jools started this thread to focus discussion on The Brexit Party, to provide a place where we can discuss all aspects of the Party’s positive agenda for Britain, their electoral strategies and successes and their detailed policies and plans. Please don’t drag this thread off subject. Thankyou. Edited November 13, 2019 by Surfer 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What a stupid idea. Then I visited this thread and realised that Jools and RTB have the vote. Never mind horses that are cleverer than these two wombat-level morons, their digestive systems produce organic matter with more intelligence. So, if Jools and RTB are allowed to vote, why not trot Frankel down to the polling station? He'd make a more informed vote than those two idiots. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Clearly there are many in our society who fit this description - hence the fact free zones of faith (or twisted cherry picked pseudo-facts) that populate social media and sadly our modern politics. Sadly there has been far too many Catholics saying 'Give me the child for the first seven years' and your theory didn't work out too well. What is a fact, however, is that whereas most young people, imbued with the spirit of innocence and naivity, do vote for left-leaning parties. But as they grow-up, take on responsibilities, gain experience and wisdom, end up voting for right-leaning parties. It's fortunate that the majority of electors votes for the right (Labour has been in power for only thirty-seven of its one hundred and twenty year history - and many Lefties consider the thirteen Blair/Brown New Labour years as an aberration of leftie doctrine), so we are usually spared of the madness that a labour government brings. Of course, we are still left with that rump of old Labourites, who were either too proud, too delusional or perhaps even too thick to grow-up with the rest of us and still hanker after the good old days when the Manchester Guardian wrote leader columns supporting the Soviet Union and the CND.
