MrL_JaKiri posted:Because the polling companies adjusted their weightings after 2015 to give them the "correct" result. 1) You have to ignore the fact that in historic elections (1997, 1992 etc) the Labour vote was overstated and pollsters 'adjusted' then. There is a historic trend of pollsters overestimating Labour support. 2) Even if Labour party support is being polled accurately, that doesn't get over the conundrum of Corbyn's popularity still being incredibly low. The evidence is consistent that when there's a disparity between these two figures, the national share moves in the direction of the leadership rating.

i got the deposit for my flat from my great aunt who was in care and completely gone from dementia and totally healthy otherwise and expected all the money to go to her care. Then I visited her for the first time in the care home and she dropped down dead suddenly a week later

Also I think a lot of people are wildly overestimating how common trust structures are. They're like a top fraction of a percent thing.

If you'd like another, more general, report: http://eprints.ncrm.ac.uk/3789/1/Report_final_revised.pdf This time, at least, we're moving to completely new models of poll weighting which should produce better results.

Don't worry guys, the Tories will add new entertaining activities for seniors in nursing homes, such as "X-TREME stairwell skipping with wheelchair"

pointsofdata posted:Seems unlikely, would be against the interests of the all powerful care home/private landlord cartel They'll balance the books somehow - have the family pay 30% of what the care is projected to cost overall to murder the sick olds, or something. You can count on the tories to find a win/win scenario like that.

Hoops posted:Are people actually complaining about inheritance stuff in the UKMT? In what way? The new rules sound good if the rest of society was fixed at the same time. The reality is an attempt to wreck the middleclass so they're as desperate and powerless as the workingclass. This is only a victory in the most puerile petty way. Nothing has got better, just more people are feeling what it's like to be a pleb in the UK. There is an argument for accelerationism except that is normally looked down upon. And we've seen time and again that voters don't make rational decisions. The idea that if we make everyone suffer equally then we'll get our socialist utopia is a very dangerous one. They might just vote in Hitler II instead.

I think it's more instructive to consider what value of inherited assets might be passed into trust, as a percentage of total inherited wealth, rather than the number of trust structures themselves.

BBC has a good write up of some of the future problems with the social care policy. For example, what prevents you releasing equity from your home and spending the cash? Then when you die the equity-release company has first dibs on your house and the government loses out. Or, could you be your parent's carer and pay yourself out of the value of their house? There's a lot of questions.

The Telegraph have released an 'exclusive' on Corbyn, turns out MI5 had a file on him. As far as I can tell the rest of the article is just a summary of all the times he's quasi-supported the IRA or shared platforms with unpleasant people. Personally I think it lends credence to the idea that they don't really have any more big ammunition against Corbyn. I'm sure they are keeping something back for near polling day, but I think the IRA stuff has already been 'priced in' as it were.
