Maybe when you see a projection that contains multiple extremely improbable swings it's smarter to conclude that the polling is garbage rather than just blindly trust in the proclamations of modern day entrail readers?

It's called multi-level regression post stratification. How can you not trust it?

Good luck finding one under the American run NHS.

I mean being honest you've a far better chance of finding one going private than through the NHS. NHS mental health services are loving bad. But then the issue of going private is less ability to find a shrink & more being able to afford them.

Of course the solution to this isn't privatising the NHS, it's funding the health service better.

Yeah I'm talking about the city (hex below). All the rich wankers live in North. It also stretches somewhat into rural areas.

As before - no loving way Norwich is going Tory even with students loving off.

"Six Labour marginals that have never voted Conservative would turn blue, as would at least nine seats that have been Labour since the Second World War."

Yeah this part sounds like bullshit to me. These shambolic cunts who everyone hates are gonna replicate Labour's performance in Canterbury 6 times over? What exactly would inspire that? :D

The hex below is South Northfolk - the other Norwich one is still Labour peeking underneath that box there

Also the dubious Bolsover call is this


Tories gaining next to nothing and winning by virtue of Brexit Party splitting the Labour vote

Midlands is uniquely in the position of being absolutely reamed by thatcher, but then for some reason blaming it on immigrants and then finally deciding that leaving the EU is the way to solve both these problems.

I can assure you with 100% certainty there will be tens of thousands of job losses around here when we leave, manufacturing here is on a very thin tightrope as it is and becoming noncompetitive with Europe suddenly pushes a lot of people off that rope very quickly.

I remember someone posted a infographic showing the tories genuinely believing they'd get 70% of the votes cast in london, baring in mind this is something that hasn't happened since like 1850, and is never going to happen again due to leave/remain/tories being racist

I don't think the main take away that if the Tories lead shrinks to below 7% they can't form a government is bad news really considering the recent movements?

From anecdotes I do worry that "get Brexit done" is working well as a message with the Boomers, especially in the North.

That it's a lie and they haven't considered what happens afterwards utterly passes them by, much like it did in 2016. loving idiots.

All the fabled MRP technique does is turn polling data into seats won/lost.

If you feed it the wrong polling data, you will get the wrong result. This is only the predicted outcome if Labour polled 32% and the Tories 43% on December 12th. Even the last couple of polls putting Labour 7 points behind would considerably improve this picture.

I've met palin so he is good by default. Not much political info other than he doesn't like Brexit.

Terry Gilliam called Cleese an idiot for his recent statements about london, so presumably good.

I don't claim to know for sure whether a grim poll will depress turnout or motivate the youth to the polls, but voter engagement and registration seems to be record breaking so I'm going with "here we...here we...here we fuckin go"
