dogmc Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Can't see the Lib Dems only gaining 1 seat tbh. Not sure where they are really likely to gain, plus carmichael is hardly safe. If snp find a credible candidate there he could be out. Sure he would have wanted the parliament to go full term to allow his constituents to forget that hes a lying arrogant duplicitous scumbag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrewDon Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 May has nothing to gain from taking part in TV debates, IMO. She is usually somewhere between mediocre and poor at PMQs and in the HoC, so there is no need to risk underwhelming performances in live TV debates when you are so far ahead in the opinion polls only weeks before a GE. Also little to gain from giving opposition parties and leaders more airtime and a bigger platform than is strictly necessary. We will likely have some Scottish debates between Sturgeon, Dugdale, Davidson and Rennie, I'd imagine. Sturgeon usually performs reasonably well in live debates, but she also would have little to lose from giving them a pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sloop John B Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 I think the Unionist vote in the South of Scotland will most likely consolidate itself more with the Tories compared to the rest of Scotland. Which probably won't be enough thankfully in D&G but Mundell will probably come back with a larger majority IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambomo Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 One thing I am looking forward to is seeing how badly the polls will get it wrong this time. If they couldn't get 2015 right, they'll have no chance with this mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crùbag Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Remember Maggie's wise words. With the SNP at 50% for WM intentions (think it was 54% recently) this is one big gamble for May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spain Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Theresa May's own constituency voted 54% to remain... Go on LibDems, give it a proper go for shits and giggles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrewDon Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 I look forward to the Lib Dems somehow contriving to reinvent themselves as the 'progressive' option at this election - in England, anyway. This, of course, is despite their leader being a lily-livered homophobe and their position on the EU being absolutely everything to do with opportunism and absolutely nothing to do with deeply held principles. I also fully expect The Guardian and suchlike, similar to 2010, to swallow it whole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Paxman interviews were a good laugh. Who can forget Millibands's cringeworthy "Hell yeah I'm tough enough" or him tripping as he walked off stage. Corbyn dreams of only commitiing gaffes of those magnitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
