In keeping with the trend in earlier polls but would only result in a small change in seats the pollsters say: CON 3 (+2), LAB 0 (-1), LIB 0 (-1), UKIP 0 (+0), Green 0 (+0), SNP 56 (+0).

Just watching Corbyn on the Andrew Marr show - the longer he keeps talking the more seats are going to Theresa May.

I think the Scots are dreading another referendum it was long drawn-out and bitter, but that does not mean they do not want independence. Why not just say to the people if you vote for me that is a vote for independence. Who needs referendums.

I see your intolerance has not mellowed with age, Willo, as is also the case with so many other of your fellow Tories! Kettle, pot and all that blackness.

Not so many 'classical free speech' Liberals around anymore in this country....Even May with her 'hate speech' laws pisses me off.

It's this little thing....called democracy....You know the majority of people having a say on the direction of their country. You might of heard about it....or perhaps being a EU supporter and soon to be leaving European....perhaps not.

General Elections are not advisory like brexit.

Does anyone know if Corbyn extra bank hi idea is an extra day off or because of the minimum holiday rules does it mean that it's part of existing holiday allowance? I would have thought it would be better to remove May day. Parrot

He has already said he is the 'anti establishment' candidate and now is attempting to curry favour through extra bank holidays. Maybe he should try and explain how his bats*** policies would be paid for.

There is precious little to offer the voters at this election at least this is deliverable and its a harmless ray of sunshine.

Delivery of a clean Brexit, as voted for by the people, and rejecting a 'progressive' coalition of lunacy that would ruin the economy and lives. The Tories need to be kept in check, hence that's why after they get slaughtered, UKIP must get their act together as they are the only credible opposition in the country. Labour, the Lib Irrelevants and the SNP aren't credible opponents and don't keep the government in check or influence government policy. Thank goodness Nigel Farage did and continues to do so.
