Anyone still believe that sitting out Brexit was Corbyn's masterstroke?

Apparently only 5% of Labour voting leavers from the last election would now vote Labour and less than half of those who voted Remain! Please keep Corbyn in charge for the foreseeable future. With only 7 points separating 4 parties plus SNP and DUP, the next parliament will be powerless to do anything- like the current one. Not a good idea if the poll is reflected in seats. Could be 6 parties, none of whom will talk to any of the others.

NOTHING TO SEE just confirming what we already no roughly 50% Brexit/tory, 50%lab/libdem/greens, mirroring leave /remain
if we leave on no deal there,ll be a swing to remain parties and if we leaver with a deal supported by erg tory,s will probably rise to 35% plus, GE polls are meaningless til Brexit is delivered

While things are clearly bad, I don't buy 5% for a second for whoever said that. I'm just not buying 19/20 Labour leavers wouldn't vote Labour in a GE.

As is it's hard to see what the solution is to last part, you can't get anything through this parliament, and you probs won't in the next parliament either, though you will return vastly different numbers. We are at a total gridlock really.

It's likely the GE will become before Brexit is delivered though.

in a 4 party race ,depending where your vote is a small % of votes can produce a large % of seats,as opposed to ukip getting noithing for 4 million, if GE comes before Brexit I,d expect remain parties to hold balance of power in the commons

The surprise is that they are not even lower.

Weasel has been a total disaster. As people are increasingly saying although he has been up against a government in total disarray he has provided the most ineffective opposition you could imagine.

He really should step down rather than keep on embarrassing himself. 

The crowning glory of his inept leadership will be overseeing his own party help Brexit over the line. That will no doubt please the buffoon but will make the idea of a Labour government a distant memory.

He will go down as the worst ever labour leader if he goes on to contest the next election and lose.he's lost one general already,two euros and two locals and got labour down to lowest ever polling ever and worst ever polling for leader of party and against worst ever PM as well plus if he loses to johnson an utter embarassment and imbecile that would just top it all off..

Nonsense. One poll is meaningless. You should get back on your abacus and see if you can finally learn to count, do percentages or how to bet. After all, it is a betting forum.

CON: 26% (+1)
LAB: 24% (-3)
LDEM: 22% (+7)
BREX: 12% (-4)
GRN: 8% (-1)

Here is another meaningless poll. Individual polls are a snapshot in time. However, if you study all polls from a number of companies over a decent timeframe you can pick up trends which can be useful for betting purposes.

I think Labour under Corbyn is a viable opponent against the Tories but ONLY once Brexit is delivered and the elitists like Watson, ex Labour Chukka Ammuna and others driven purely by overturning Brexit leave the party as they have no other motive. They can be replaced by Corbyn with those who want to make a difference for working and middle class people and they will have a strong chance of succeeding.

Trowbridge Drynham (Wiltshire) result:

LDEM: 41.6% (+28.4)
CON: 30.5% (-35.8)
IND: 23.7% (+23.7)
LAB: 4.2% (-16.3)

Liberal Democrat GAIN from Conservative.

A very small vote but these are significant results if there is enough of them and in this case, in the right geographical area, for the tories to be very worried.

a return to tactical voting by labour voters in seats they cannot win.?

corbyn picked up big numbers in last election by mopping up these
labour votes, from natural labour voters, who may have previously voted
lib dem to avoid a tory mp.

billy bragg will be happy


i guess the ind was a brexiteer too?

Labour values are European values. That's why today I am asking Labour members and supporters to sign a declaration proclaiming support for remaining in the EU and urging the Labour Party to lead the campaign for Remain. #proudlybritishproudlyeuropean

In places like the above local council election, the tories would, in normal circumstances, be certainties to win the surrounding Westminster constituencies. However, we don't live in normal times and virtually no seat in the West Country-ish region should be considered a shoo in for the tories.

pp, the significant result in your small ward sample is Labour 4% down from 20%. They don't have much support in rural Wiltshire or Somerset where I live but they are losing what little they had. I know it makes no difference in a GE as they have no seats to lose.

sage,

Absolutely. There is a strong chance that tactical voting is going to be in play in the event of a general election this year and Labour voters will likely try and damage the tories in any practical possible way.
