Why bother calling for an early election if nothing really is going to change? (Guessing the numbers in brackets are ridings flipping)

Nah the numbers in brackets are change since the last poll a few days ago.

In terms of seats flipping estimates are 50-150 flipping from to the conservatives.

Could be way more, labour got slaughtered in the local elections a week ago.

A lot of his supporters think he can't fail, only be failed by the Parliamentary Labour Party and the media.

He's rapidly becoming british ron paul.

UKIP were polling 15% at the last election and all of that vanishing has gone to the tories. labour are polling exactly the same as 2015 showing its not really corbyn thats been a problem

also its funny that coal mining dying is currently loving up US politics as well when it was even less important there

in 2010 the 3rd part were the lib dems and they went into a coalition with the tories. in 2015 the scottish referendum had happened as well as the lib dems being in coalition so labour got wiped out in scotland by the SNP coupled with the lib dems collapsing with their votes going to the tories. UKIP got 15% but being FPTP they only got a single seat

what you see now is labour are completely dead in scotland while the tories aren't and there are only 2 parties in england with all the 3rd party collapsing now voting tory

things are going to be insanely poo poo for people by the time labour are next in government just like when Blair won

The level of public support for the negotiating team is completely irrelevant and in any case it should be a cross-party thing seeing as how it's incredibly important to get right.

The cynical reason for this is so that if/when the whole affair is a massive disaster they have a couple of years to get things right before the next election.

i'm not sure a massive list of any possible conflict the UK took part that the readers have never heard of to try and make corbyn look bad is the best idea and thats before we get to the fact they included the refugee crisis

i'm assuming this is one of the red tops that love war though and not a satirical piece

It was more than 25 I think and yes it was due to plane crashes.

Keep in mind that there were thousands and thousands of flights, often at night, and in bad weather, and there was nothing like the same grade of ILS etc. as nowadays.
