Looking highly likely it will be a hung parliament or a very slim majority which leaves the UK in limbo.
Not worth losing sleep for.

Nah, the fascist media have done a job on Labour and the British people will fall for it.
Still don’t wait up though.
You’ll have the rest of your lives to live through the consequences, so you might as well have your final good night’s sleep.
Ever.

Whatever the outcome there is a hell of a rocky few years ahead for this country.
You cannot have an election built on the rhetoric rather than substance (by all parties) approach we have seen meaning we will have swift resolutions
This means the core issues that underpin all the problems this country faces are in no way solved and division will continue
its all rather depressing

Exactly. If the Conservatives win, we'll get the sort of Brexit treaty, the loser of a war should have to sign up to. I suppose with Boris we'll have to wait and see, but they don't have a good record tackling immigration, or getting to grips with the national debt. Austerity my arse.
Failing that we'll get a madman, who whenever he opens his mouth, seems to think he'd been asked what he would do if he was a genie.
Which leaves me more hoping the storm will pass, than of having any great optimism.

Problem with modern projections is they have failed a lot lately.
I have seen polls putting them real close and real far apart but when you try to take out the agenda and go with the averages it’s harder.
Luckily the tightness of the Tory Mps it may only take 330 to get what Boris wants as I can’t see any of them defying the whip straight after the election. His only problem is if EU become awkward down the line and no deal comes back then he won’t win a vote in the house with even 5 or 6 rebels.

Then it'd be Boris's fault for not booting them out / letting them back in.

I actually agree but the current stance is all 600+ are committed. Or is that should be committed lol

The choice is a simple one. You can choose a floppy haired buffoon Or You can choose an extreme Marxist IRA loving, Hamas loving, Hezbolah loving. British hating terrorist. The choice is yours.

Hmm im not sure id agree with those descriptions of either of the 2 main party leaders.
The irony here of course when you vote tomorrow you wont be voting for either Johnson or Corbyn
The fact so few know who their PPC is suggests alot about the state of our voting system

I won't be voting for either of them. Firstly it's pointless, as I live in a 52.5% Muslim area and (for now) no other party than Labour is going to win that seat. Secondly, I'm kind of glad in a way, because I can't see myself forgiving the Conservatives for the absolute sh1t show they made of honoring the referendum.

From the outside if you don’t really truly know a person ya next best way of judging is the company they keep.
Boris is just a rich folk pleaser
Corbyn has some very unsavoury associates including a foreign minister that signed off gay executions which is why it always shocks me why students like him and why this one ain’t more out there on Twitter

I don't know with students. Universities are in Labour's pocket, so that might have something to do with it. In my experience, limited as it is, once they leave university and start earning, they also start caring more about where their taxes are going, and change their minds. Unlimited government spending doesn't look as attractive as it once did. With Corbyn in particular, no I just don't get it. They may not be able to think through the consequences of the spending plans, open boarders, giving foreigners the vote, obeying foreign courts, government control over the internet (that's me gone), the laughable tree planting plans, being blind to what importing a city load of people every year is going to do to the NHS & handing over control of our armed forces. But being OK with his IRA mates. Staggering.
