How the YouGov MRP poll sees Stafford. (Percentage vote along the X axis.)

Well for starters i don't think i even remotely suggested it would be 'fair'.I mean, I see a lot in Theodora Clarke that makes me not want to vote for her, but is it really fair to hold her accountable for who her aunt decided to marry?
So what this rather suggests is that even if the Conservative candidate achieved the absolute arse-end of their expected vote share, and the Labour candidate achieved the top-banana of theirs, only the combined top end predictions of both yellow and green added to the Labour vote would run them close?How the YouGov MRP poll sees Stafford.

In the grand scheme of things, a vote for Labour in this seat would essentially be a 'none of the above' vote.Never before have I wanted a "None of the above" option so much. If I could afford it I would even be willing to start a party of that name if I didn't think it would win as per Brewsters Millions.
Good stuff. It'll take at least 10 years for the Brexit dust to settle, so anyone that thinks (does anyone?) that the UK leaving is the end of the matter is going to be disappointed.Get Brexit Done is just an expanded TLA - and like Take Back Control is equally meaningless.
If you genuinely think that Brexit will be 'got done' in anything other than the (at least) TEN YEARS that it will take to actually 'do' then i don't know what i could possibly say to you that hasn't been said to you by anybody else with more credibility than i have to convince you that it really is going to go on and on and on, dude, it's forever.
I lived in digs for a few months when I was sixteen, to avoid moving schools during O-Levels.I didn't leave home and get my own place until I was in my mid-thirties. Although I didn't live at home much, either being a student in Edinburgh or being at sea. I don't know that I follow that simile with regards to Brexit but I do remember coming home after a 13 month trip and all through my leave my Mud and Dad kept asking me who I was !! (They were both born piss-takers.)
It's always nice to have a home to go to in reserve, especially as these days we are living in an ever increasing world of hostility.
And I've had a few more today.And they're off .... I've just had a Conservative party A4-size leaflet shoved through the letterbox.
