Guy Goodbody posted:I'm not from England, I don't know how things work over there, but why are Lib Dems in this election? Weren't they completely destroyed last time you guys decided to have an election? How are they still claiming to be a political party? the worst thing about americans using the terms "england" and "the uk" interchangeably is that you're never quite sure if they're being too specific for no good reason or if they actually just don't know what your country is called the lib dems have 1 mp in scotland and one in wales i'll have you know, so I'm assuming you live in the shetlands and are just very unobservant about politics

Trin Tragula posted:I've been bored and trying to avoid things, so I decided to go poke around at these magical new YouGov polls and projections that we're all relying on for a little hope, instead of the diabolical TNS ones that Theresa May is taking to bed with her at night. YouGov has also produced a very clever thingy which is currently attempting to give (sort of) bespoke constituency-by-constituency results rather than trying to extrapolate from a national uniform swing (a concept that's been steadily declining towards irrelevance since 2010). I do like it when pollsters try to ram it into the reader's skull that a confidence interval is a thing that might be relevant to analysis of a survey. The graph for Glasgow North is a fun one.

OwlFancier posted:Middlesbrough South is even more awkward because we've got a new MP standing, the UKIP vote is enough to completely destabilize the constituency, and the Labour vote has been dropping steadily and would be on course to fall below the tories this election. Also you appear to have been put in the same constituency as part of Ohio which is going to shake things up a lot. I knew gerrymandering was bad over there but I didn't know they could just up and give half a city back to the British.

I have the impression the Scottish greens (who are a separate party) are a bit better on the whole science thing, but admittedly I'm not in a position to look it up right now. Harvie in westminster, or even establishing a competitive FPTP seat from the greens would be 100% kickin' rad though, just to complete the uselessness of this thread by giving ThomasPaine in Glasgow North three different pieces of conflicting advice. Being pro-independence they might also bleed votes from the snp long-term while having a much stronger level of lefty-cred, if they're seen as a viable option.

I mean this is a pretty tame example but it's good to know the new age of targeted advertising has allowed for certain people to be shown messages that may never see public scrutiny. democracy woo

Gum posted:Have Kerrang! ever endorsed before? yeah Kerrang! usually try not to boast about their obvious influence in elections, it doesn't look good for them. really they've covertly decided every election since the 70s with their biased reporting of how social issues affect the hardness of sweet rock riffs, so it's probably a wise move for Corbyn to get them on side
