The Tories will win the most seats as long as they don't decide this is a good time to roll out unpopular policies like they did in 2017, and as long as Corbyn carries on looking so ridiculous by being all shouty and fake happy smiley. He looked embarrassingly uncomfortable and out of character today.
The Brexit Party and UKIP should realise they're not going to achieve a no deal outcome and probably won't win any seats, and by contesting Tory seats and splitting the leave vote they are only increasing the likelihood of a second referendum. Their best move would be to stand aside and support Boris.
Labour, the Lib Dems and the Greens can fight over the remain vote.

| Looking at it logically, where will the Tories win the seats they'll need to to offset losses elsewhere - it is highly likely they are going to lose seats in Scotland, the South West and London so will need to more than compensate by gains in the Midlands and the north. If the polls remain as they are that's possible, if the lead dips a bit it starts to become more difficult because you're having to win seats that are historically very resistant to Tory charms.
They will be hoping to make it all about Brexit but if it flips to domestic policies they will be harder pressed because the country doesn't typically favour that many of the Conservatives' policies.

Not too sure how it will go but the signs are that the Tories are going to win most seats.
As for Labour et al fighting for the remain vote, think Boris could be in for a nasty surprise. From personnel experience, amongst my leave voting friends and relatives, very few can bring themselves to vote conservative.

| This will not be a Tory walk over it will be more contested than people think. Labour have policies that are attractive on the face of it - the idea that simply taxing the rich will support it all makes no sense. The biggest asset the Tories have is Corbyn - last election he was an unknown face and he was up against May who was by far the worst leader/campaigner the Tories have ever had. His impact will not be as positive as it was in 2017.
Labour's Brexit policy is also an issue - how can you agree to negotiate a deal and then campaign against it? It can never be a credible deal. They have consistently blocked Brexit which will not sit well.
The other issue I see for Labour is the number of prominent women - this is not a sexist comment - Abbott, Thornbury, Long-Bailey, Angela Eagle, Dawn Butler - these all come with baggage that will be exposed in an election run up. The less said about Jess Phillips the better
We haven't mentioned Anti-Semitism.

Brexit Party will gain a number of seats in this election I would think. Down to the fact that Leave voters who vote Labour will switch to BP just to avoid voting Conservative. Especially in your South Yorkshire/North East seats.

I think the Brexit party could do well in the North - they have the same problem as Labour swop Corbyn for Farage.

I think that Corbyn is the root of Labours problems but, I'd take Corbyn over Farage all day long.
Farage is nothing more than a self publicist but, plenty have been taken in by his rhetoric.

Of course it is sexist. If they were men you wouldn't be grouping them together for criticism. It is the very definition of sexism.

No its not - the women are very prominent in the Labour front bench and they will get a lot of air time - the only Tories you will see are Leadsom and Patel - the rest are men. You will see a lot more females in the spotlight from Labour than you will the Tories.

Completely agree - Corbyn is a dreamer - he dreams of the UK being predominantly public state where the socialist-elite lord it over the rest.

This argument is mindblowing, even by your standards. There's something underlying that's utterly obviously wrong with it but you're completely blind to it.

OK
Diane Abbott - need we say anymore
Dawn Butler - plays the race card at every tweet similar to David Lamy
Eagle - the manifestation of Corbyn's hard line left wing foot soldier
Thornbury - divisive remainer who struggles to understand democracy
Long-Bailey - screechy looks like she has swallowed a lemon
Jess Phillips - shameless self promoter with nothing good to promote who said she wants to stab a Tory then cries wolf tears about language she doesn't like
These ladies will be trotted out at regular intervals by Jeremy - they will harm Labour. At least the Tory men understand how to project themselves to the media and can deflect the likes of Marr.

Could not agree more - doubt you will see him at all nationally in this campaign - the Tories are far too switched on for that - Labour will be rolling Diane Abbott though - let's hope they ask her about education
Who was it that brought in tuition fees?

Even if there was something tangible in what you say the fact that you specifically identify these people as women shows just how backward you are. It's not just you, it's the Nazi supporting paper you read that portrays them as such, & you, & your gammon ilk, are so shallow you cannot recognise it. Tell me, why did you feel the need to identify your perceived defects in women & not a grouping of priviliged white men?
Quote Long-Bailey - screechy looks like she has swallowed a lemon'"
Even by your bigoted neanderthal standards that is odious. Nothing to do with her qualities as an MP or person, just her appearance.
Quote Jess Phillips - shameless self promoter'"
You support a self-obsessed, narcissist, woman abuser, serial liar as PM. Is Jess a bit rough for you? Do you feel threatened by extremely hard working women who balance a family life? Are you more comfortable with your golf club sexist bores?

I think that you may need to see someone.
How could you make a list of politicians "with issues" and not include Johnson, Rees-Mogg, Gove, Raab, Patel, in fact, most of the ERG and yet you choose only to select women from the Labour Party - unbelievable, even from you.

Why should McClusky be the voice of Labour, he isn't an MP. Despite what the Daily Mail tells you. Perhaps Dominic Cummins or Anthony Bamford should front the Tory campaign?
