Please let Trump start to twitter war days before the election.

If I was Corbyn's campaign guy I'd get my team to come up the sickest burn imaginable for Trump and get it in his feed ASAP the next time he tweets so it gets worldwide coverage/support.

Just read this somewhat doom-laden article about the next five years in general and was wondering what people here thought of it: http://www.independent.co.uk/voices...e-a7773166.html quote:"Why both Theresa May and Jeremy Corbyn should pray that they lose this election (by a whisker) It seems to make a pretty good argument that Brexit is SUCH a poisoned chalice that whatever party has to implement it is doomed.

Something tells me Corbyn has a slight chance of winning because he's actively marketing to people a slightly unrealistic but good vision for the future while his predecessors and opposition do not. Makes ya think, eh american democrats?!

It'll be just as damaging for the Left's long-term viability as a political force if Brexit turns the country into a shitshow and the public's too stupid to separate cause from effect. Having said that, the letter from 90-million economists posted here the other day, did say that they thought the Keynesian response proposed by Labour would be much more effective than further austerity in staving off the worst of it. I'm torn between hoping he wins, hoping he doesn't win if Brexit's an un-saveable disaster, and hoping he does win even if it's terrible, because he'll probably make it less bad. Absolute worst scenario is for the Tories to gently caress everything up by having the referendum, gently caress it up further by their terrible and hostile negotiating strategy, then waltz back into power to 'clean up Labour's mess' when the consequences have been felt.

I actually think Corbyn's got a much better chance of handling Brexit well than May does, since he's not shackled himself to the most racist part of the electorate, he didn't cause this mess, and he hasn't spent years pissing off the people he's going to have to negotiate with.

Huh. if it's that close to the last one it may well just be the margins of error playing up. which is why polls aren't generally quoted to the decimal place of a percentage point in the headlines. E: beaten, like [will edit this later so i can pretend to be clairvoyant] on Thursday

I'm pretty sure that this kind of timing strategy doesn't work for poo poo and just convinces people you're petty and worthless. The best way to convince people that the left deserves to be treated like a serious political force is to do serious politics, like govern the country through a tough time. Aiming to lose so as to win big next time brings to mind politicians who sit on their hands on most issues so as to avoid spending "political capital" when there's no such thing. Either you have the energy and ideas to fight every battle or you don't.

This is my main reason for still wanting Labour in the seat for Brexit; we really don't want a party that thinks the correct response to a recession is more austerity.

I do not believe she is going to make a success of this thing. This whole thing is deliberately uncharted waters. The article is full of completely unproven bullshit truisms that it isn't worth the pixels on your monitor.

As much as I'd like YouGov to be right, doesn't their model predict something like 80% youth turnout? I'm pretty sceptical about it..

What exactly is the difference between this and the Survation poll that came out at the weekend? The weekend one even said fieldwork done 3rd June.

Those changes are listed compared to their 27th of May poll but it's one point more for each compared to the Survation poll on the 3rd: https://twitter.com/NCPoliticsUK/status/871095105108750336 is it not compared because this one was an online poll and the new one isn't and/or some different methodology or are they just trying for a week-long figure I dunno
