The worst thing that could happen is another term of the present government . The good news is that it won’t happen .
If Labour wins by a landslide ,the Tories will be destroyed and another party will rise out the ashes . Either a new Tory movement within the party or a move to reform .
The bad news is that Labour will be in office for a term or two and the UK will become a woke infested shit hole .

As of today [29 May] the two polls at opposite ends of the political polling spectrum are PeoplePolling who give Labour a 26 point lead, and JLPartners who give Labour a 12 point lead. Most political commentators expect the gap to close as the election date gets closer.

Most political commentators expect the gap to close as the election date gets closer. I can't see who Labour are appealing to except the unemployed, they're even losing the Muslim votes, they've frightened pensioners to death with talk of raiding their savings and pension pots, and business are trembling at the thought of being clobbered for tax, they've put pay to private schools by tax them to death, so just exactly where are all these so called Labour voters coming from? |

You do know the unemployed and young are less likely to vote. If believed political commutators are saying the 50+are more likely to vote labour. |

"YouGov's under-50 voting intention Labour: 59% Greens: 12% Conservatives: 8% Reform: 8% Lib Dems: 6%" x.com/PolitlcsUK/status/1795751549681184796?t=isX-dVyY79ickpNBOuWkxg&s=19I know that conventionally wisdom has it that as people grow older they morph into Conservatives but are the old certainties that was based on still there? As I understand it the narrative back in the day people started off as liberal/lefties when they were young then became Conservatives when they got older, got a mortgage, kids a career etc. Youngsters today are struggling to get on the housing ladder, struggling to pay rent which makes them less likely to have kids I'd have thought, so basically have little or nothing to conserve. With Labour's proposed plans to give 16 and 17 year olds the vote, is this election an existential threat to the conservative party? |

I agree, the longer this election campaign goes on for the less electable Starmer becomes, and we havent even had a leaders debate yet. I'm sure Labour central office is dreading that. |

Never take too much notice of any one poll, instead look at trends or poll trackers
The polling and political analyst organisation "Britain Elects" is doing a weekly Poll Track published today from a week ago when the election was announced .... LAB: 45.2% (+0.1) CON: 23.3% (-0.1) with changes from last Wednesday.
Virtually no change
