I can't wait for Trump to have a 5 minute conversation with Corbyn and come out going "you know guys, these socialists, they have some good ideas, real high energy people" like he does after he meets literally everyone, with the exception of Macron, who decided it would be much more worthwhile to be a Gallic prick instead (good on him)

Yeah. I can't imagine that the SNP wouldn't demand a second Scottish referendum as a price of coalition. There's no way that Labour can afford to go for that. Much better to call their bluff and say, "Vote for us on a confidence and supply basis or be the party that let the Conservatives in". Though, given the Tory resurgence in Scotland, maybe that's not the ultimatum it once would have been.

At this point, if the polls are even close to accurate, even a Tory victory is gonna be pretty loving embarrassing for May given the high expectations that were set at the start of the race.

Yeah I don't think Labour can win but my most optimistic scenario right now is a hung parliament with the tories as the largest party which would still be hilariously embarrassing for May.

there's been a lot of pissed off young people who've been galvanised by Brexit & Labour's been making a lot of voter registration/turnout efforts - we may get an unsually high youth turnout

lol if also old people don't bother to vote because the election was called early and they cba to

With their 8 MPs? Nah, they're going to be marginal whatever happens. It's going to be Tory majority/minority government or an SNP/Labour coalition.

The current government, which has a pretty slim majority of something like 20 seats out of 650, was not elected with Theresa May at its head, so there has been something of a question about the legitimacy of her Doing Brexit really fuckin haphazardly despite the public never voting for her government and her only being in charge of the tories because Michael Gove stabbed BoJo in the back, killing both their hopes to lead the country.

Since the polls looked like amazingly good for the Conservatives vs Labour (keeping in mind the conservative government has been a disaster for nearly everyone, even without Brexit) she decided to hold an election after triggering Article 50 which also very coincidentally covered the period in which a number of Tory MPs under investigation for electoral fraud might have had to have by-elections.
