Election predictions thread

[OliviaPopeRules]

Regardless of who you voted for I wondered what you predict the result will be?

My guess is 115 seat conservative majority.

Range I think TM's "enough is enough" and promising to take more action (like she's not have plenty of time in the last 7 years either as Home Sec or PM to do that and often voted the same as Corbyn - ie against - several proposed pieces of Labour terror legislation) following London Bridge hit home with a lot of people.

I do agree Labour would be in power already if David Miliband was leader.

I don't agree he'll be back - he's raking in $600k being President of the IRC in NYC.

I wish I'd followed my instinct and not come to mn today. I was happy living in my hung parliament progressive alliance bubble. Damn you all.

'I don't agree he'll be back - he's raking in $600k being President of the IRC in NYC.'

Money isn't generally the draw when it comes to politics though. I wouldn't be surprised if he made a return.

@littlelion me too I just got told on previous page how stupid I am☹️

Maybe D Miliband is making his pile now so he can afford to come back to politics. I'd love him to.

Mrs Miliband is thinking 'oh fuck, I hope not'.

As in Mrs Miliband his mum.

Tory majority of 76. Unfortunately.

Anybody know if this is real?

Money's not the draw but for sure but he must be over thinking he'd have a hell of a mess to sort out and is it worth it!

I think some are confusing the question in OP for "What do you want to happen"

Tory will win but the whole thing will backfire on TM because they'll also lose some seats to Labour.

Reading the students are queuing to vote I become more hopeful of a hung parliament

I think people are expecting the opposite of what they voted for so they're not disappointed, I voted Tory but am expecting Labour to win.

I dread the idea of that poisonous cow with a drop of power. I'd rather a Tory/Labour coalition and we know what a car crash that would be.

Hung parliament (but in reality Con win)

Labour about 210 seats
Lib Dems gain a few (going say up to 12)
SNP lose maybe 5 or 6 (so 50)
Greens keep Brighton Pavilion
Others hardly any different (23 seats?), making 296

which I think gives the Tories 354 so a majority of 58

Tory majority by 85 seats. I don't think that the SNP are going to do half as well as they expect in Scotland and quite a few seats may be lost to the Tories.

I am hoping that Labour take enough of a battering that JC is forced to resign by Friday lunchtime. I think it is criminal that excellent politicians such as Yvette Cooper and Hilary Benn have been totally sidelined in the Labour party

I'm interested in the student vote as well Leader, I wonder why if there are enough to be a game changer as there will only be one way they will vote.

I'd like to see a drop in the SNP vote share, I'ld like to see a few Scottish seats taken back from them.

Overall I'm not sure - I know this is the first time my entire family has voted for labour, so on that basis I don't think the tory majority is large. I'm not sure being in Scotland I fully appreciate the effect of the cuts in RUK.

That's what that poll is saying...I've never heard of them and thought nothing if it until it was pointed out they got brexit right, they had a 50/50 chance of calling it correct though so who knows. I'm living in hope, I really don't want tories in for another 5 years 😕

I live in the south, in a wealthy area surrounded by Tory voters, my daughter has surprised me in saying they had a vote in class today and 14 voted labour, 2 conservatives, 9 don't knows and 5 split between libs and greens, so I will carry on hoping for a hung parliament at least 😬

I think PeetingPan has it right. I predict another GE in 2019 as well.

There was something on the guardian website about them. Its a new way of doing polls, more mobile phone based or something.

Conservative majority of 80 seats, with 8-10 in Scotland. Lib dems to lose 2 seats and the UKIP vote to be slashed. I think the SNP will still have the most seats in Scotland, but will be down to about 45.
