Just the Ipsos left for the Evening Standard which is I believe published late morning on Thursday - doesn't included any input from the 8th, but apparently they can publish on election day

Labour must be the greatest bet of all time according to those polls,how many seats will they win by..

It's a decent opportunity to buy some money, but no more than that. Nowhere near the moneyspinner that the 2015 GE was. When you could get about evens on Tory most seats just 3-4 months or so before the vote, and over 1.6 for a long time after that. With Milliband at the helm that was insane value.

Don't really get involved with odds on shot nonsense but this is something else and still there is value there as well
can't believe anyone would want to lay torys in any of the overall seats and majority,would be the biggest shock in history of politcs even if it was just a no overall.. |

I'd like to comment to the gentleman who said that the grey vote didn't sit well with him as it didn't seem right that those who will be dead soon are influencing the future for younger people. I believe the truth is that us old folks do not vote with our interests in mind, rather those of our children and grandchildren, and we bring our greater experience to bear to decide what will be better for them.

That fact is that young people can sometimes be so easily impressionable to the point that they will vote on a whim or a laugh, without really bothering or caring about the consequences. If only 16-21 year olds were allowed to decide who wins a general election for example, we could easily end up with Boaty McBoatface or Ant & Dec as prime minister.

Brexit was about 10/1 on here
Polls are rubbish Labour can win ! |

By:
Think labour voters have stayed at home rather than vote for may,the markets went vrry quick at one point the partys know 2 days before whose going to win born out by the majority vote getting smashed as well,although the 1/6 still looks great value...

From another site...
When I went to vote this morning there was a queue outside of the polling station! Almost 150 young people were there, waiting patiently, holding hands and singing an uplifting song about Jeremy Corbyn and his love for people of all creeds and colours. They made space for me towards the front of the queue, calling me "Sir" and offering to hold my laptop bag because it looked very heavy. One of them ran to the local coffee shop to fetch me a coffee, they all insisted on chipping in so I didn't have to pay for it myself. I wept with pride at our glorious youth and decided, right there and then, that I too would vote for Jeremy and the wonderful future that he embodies. I live in Surrey Heath |

This is genuine!
Reading lots of reports about high turnout of young persons voting. Make of that what you will. |
|
By:
Why on earth is the market so volatile?
Approximately 1.16 Tory Majority first thing this morning, 1.25 half an hour ago, now into 1.18. What's driving the fluctuations as surely there's nothing really to influence it until 10pm tonight? |

exit poll results ...
they will have an idea sitting in their office collating data |
|
By:
Was thinking exactly the same One Nation, the rapid movements are as if BOTs are at work?!
|
|
By:
I think it's the reports of a possible (very) high turnout.
|
|
By:
be very surprised if that's the case with loads of voters of both main parties less than enthused about their respective leaders
|

By:
I've always thought that the support for Corbyn is either all or nothing.
You will get a hardcore of very enthusiastic voters and then support just falls off a cliff. This can give a distorted picture in the media of Corbyn being more popular than he is with the wavering voters just not being able to bring themselves to vote for him. I think the most important factor is what happens to the Ukip votes. They are not standing in a lot of constituencies which party will this favour? |
|
By:
UKIP...
45% Con 20% Labour 35% remaining- Who knows? |
|
By:
Reported high turnout would explain why the Tories were on the drift this morning, but why have they suddenly come in again?
Reports of not so high turnout? And it'll all come down to where the high turnout is anyway. |
|
By:
but why have they suddenly come in again?
Early peep at the Exit Polls ? |
|
By:
@one nation indeed the clue will be where the turnout is.

By:
Are people who vote at particular times of the day more likely to vote for a particular party?

Early voters possibly backing Labour ???

They said this about Trump. But I think Trump was campaigned in the swing states time and time again. Not sure Corbyn has done that. |

he's hardly gone anywhere that isn't a rabid labour seat hence huge enthusiastic crowds whereas may has gone to a lot more labour held marginal seats
