Poll: Poll: UK General Election 2017 - Mk II

[Aedus]

this poll is meaningless with several troll votes.
however the other polls show them closing pretty much daily. Its certainly going to be more interesting than anyone thought.

Maybe people are finally seeing the truth of what Ms May is really like.

This must be quite the blow to her ego, they were so far ahead in the polls that she thought calling an early vote would be safe, but who knew attacking the elderly and children would cause such a commotion?

Crikey Paxman was annoying in those interviews.

This +1000. He's a tool. Interviews were painful because he will not let people finish one sentence. He thinks he's being tough and hard hitting. He's just annoying. A terrible interviewer.

Just vote for "I wont be voting", else you'll need a new screenshot every time.

Yes, silly me - thanks for the results too.

1400 votes to go...

 

[Rotty]

Prediction: no overall majority.

7/1 with the bookies if you think there's a chance, obv they don't

 

[Above&Beyond]

The person doing the negotiations with the EU.

The buck stops with the PM.

 

[Nitefly]

Wow quite the turnaround in the poll...

 

[Zefan]

It's worth noting that the other poll had over 1700 votes cast, whereas this new one has currently less than a fifth of that. It will be interesting to see what happens to the numbers as more votes come in.

They had JC to be PM at 100/1 a few weeks ago...

Yup - and I'm not sure labour had more than 15% in the first day or so of the poll. Weren't the lib dems beating them last time at the very, very outset?

In any case will have to watch that debate.

Plus Labour voters are more invested in this to spend time on a bank holiday - a poll showing those who had changed their mind, if any, would be more enlightening.

Yes, you're right. I'm not denying the appearance of the turnaround, just highlighting the situation with the votes as it stands. It does seem like quite the swing, and even if it returns to similar numbers once more votes are in the change in initial response says something.

lolol what on earth does that mean, are the Tory voters out fox hunting or something.

A Tory win is inevitable so wasting an evening watching a largely scripted debate seems a bit pointless if you are voting Tory. Like me.

If you think it is inevitable isn't it pointless to be posting in this thread?

No more pointless (or worthwhile) than anyone else posting in this thread.

Just highlighting that on a such a small sample the labour lead is meaningless.

 

[Greebo]

You seem to have brought in to the lie that the PM is the one doing the negotiations.

She's the one putting that out. She has made this election all about her and that she needs a strong majority.

 

[Amp34]

The basic problem seems to be that some people have literally no clue how to negotiate. You have to have red lines, you have to be willing to walk away and you cannot let the other party dictate the rules otherwise you will get screwed over.

It's almost like some people want the negotiations to go badly...

The problem is in most cases walking away is remaining in the status quo (I.e two businesses discussing a merger), not a completely different set of circumstances that would likely leave you in a worse situation than you would be with pretty much any deal.

Are people willing to walk away from Brexit?

 

[FoxEye]

Voting Labour, and I've never voted before.

Every time May opens her mouth, I'm more and more convinced she's evil Well, maybe not evil, but a menace for sure... a threat to freedom, certainly, and utterly insincere about representing the struggling class.
