Ugh Ash Sarkar was in Stroud today and I missed the event to go to a pumpkin patch with the kid. Probably for the best, I'd only have embarrassed myself.

Harman says she'll create a new deputy speaker role for a "minority party" Surely that'll mostly just have the effect of limiting their voting impact? Lab/Con can soak the loss of a single seat up and it's effectively paired by the other deputies, but if Plaid (for example) gave 1/4 of their seats up it seems like a pretty bad deal for them.

RockyB posted:What is this absolute nonsense? How can you sue someone for excluding you from their own TV shows. We're outside or purdah and even if we weren't there's no legal requirement for leader debates. It gets quote:Lib Dem leader Jo Swinson said broadcasters who did not include her in their planned TV election debates were either “sexist, scared, or both”. We literally had a female Prime Minister a few months ago. And you will not be the next one, Jo.

a lovely king posted:My girlfriend's dad has been pressuring her into opening a Help-To-Buy ISA lately because they're shuttering them at the end of the month. Does anyone in here have experience with them and are they a good idea? I can't help but feel that there's a catch or something, what with it being a Tory scheme and involving housing. I've been looking online but all I can find is articles on money saving blogs and sites and I've got a lot of skepticism for them. Might as well if you've got the spare money and will actually be buying a house with it.

OwlFancier posted:Genuinely amazed how badly everyone else is campaigning. Surely, surely someone would have figured out how to do at some point this decade. Everyone else has hosed off pretty much all the key players from their previous election campaigns and are working with a bunch of idiots who've never run a GE before. Labour have a decent formula from 2017, just need to do it again and bigger and with re-worked targets to reflect how surprisingly effective it was last time out.

That poll is four months old and was ridiculous even then. Lib Dems have lost about 7% of their polling vote share from then nationally.

Tesseraction posted:Interesting comparison of trend lines then and trendlines now https://twitter.com/MattChorley/status/1191611249987129344 Over that 20 week period the Tories went up about 3% and Labour up about 12% If the same happens this time it'll be painfully even again. We really need either a quicker boost than 2017 or a Tory drop. Hoping for a BXP surge

Unkempt posted:Well, I just found out that despite letting my voter registration lapse after 5 years out of the country I can in fact reregister in time for the GE. Obviously I'm rooting for glorious fully automated luxury gay jam socialism; my vote would however be in Brighton Pavilion which is probably the only constituency in England where I'd consider not voting Labour on the grounds that hey, it's Caroline. Any thoughts? Is it worth propping up the only Green presence in the UK (despite my forceful love of Atomz,) or is it 'gently caress it, Labour labour labour'? Go Full Jam. It would be worth propping up the Greens if it looked like they might be losing to the Tories (any colour) but that's not happening.

Goldskull posted:It's not just Islington the Lib Dem's are bullshitting about, I've been bombarded with letters/leaflets the last 4 days all saying Labour can't win in Finchley & Golders Green, where 'What party am I in this week numbskull' Luciana Berger's running for them. I've been polled for some of the national Survation ones because I signed up on the website in the hopes of getting £50 in about four years time. The local ones seem to be phone polls though.

A quick thought on door-knocking. What about those in our communities without doors on which to knock? It's possible to register to vote if you have no fixed address. It might be a strong move to have a stock of the forms printed and ready to hand out to rough sleepers etc. Especially since Labour have promised to buy up several thousand homes and get people off the street immediately after winning the election. https://www.electoralcommission.org.uk/i-am-a/voter/people-no-fixed-address
