According to the BBC website it would be a smaller majority.
that would be a fitting reward for the weak and wobbly one! :rofl:

Anyone see Fallon get done over by Channel 4 news?
He was given a quote about how our foreign policy had led to a rise in terrorism, he immediately launches a tirade of abuse at Corbyn and how he is wrong, to then be told the quote was from Boris Johnson, didn't know what to say and says he needs to see it before believing it, so newsreader repeats quote and Fallon starts mumbling and is lost for words before muttering "he's wrong"

Thought Fallon was their go to guy whenever there's a damage limitation job to do within govt too, supposed to be solid. Guess they're all feeling the pressure.
Does anyone care to speculate if a 43% to 38% vote share Con/Lab is likely to get May a bigger majority than she already has or even a majority at all? All depends on marginals I expect?
Cameron got a small majority from a 36.9% vote share last time but Labour only had 30.4% so a 6.5% lead between the 2, only a 5% poll lead currently.
Andrew Neil is doing a great job of demolishing Corbyn. Corbyn is dodging and weaving like a punch drunk boxer but his reluctance to give honest answers to direct questions is laying bare so many of his questionable beliefs.
but I think that part of the point is that it would at least be HER majority, not something she inherited and would kill off those who say that she didnt have her own mandate.
Assuming she gets it of course
I'm not taking anything for granted re the polls
Naw, she thought she would pull a fast one and get a massive majority to go into Brexit.
It has totally backfired on her.
The idiots who came up with the 'strong and stable' mantra [probably the Ossie guys] were totally out of touch.
Brits don't like folk who boast.
Is Corbyn's stance on how to deal with terror groups abroad isolationist? Could it lead to the UK being marginalised on the international stage?
If IS had been left to run free across the Middle East and North Africa what would the map of the world look like? How many citizens from those countries would have been murdered, and how many of them would have been drafted into an IS army?
And then there loss of access to the oilfields in the Middle East and North Africa.
I agree with Corbyn in that the ambition must be for peace and stability but sometimes you actually have to fight for peace. Most wars need a victor and a loser for the world to move on.
That is what impressed me with Corbyn.
He talked about 'ungoverned regions' rather that countries.
IS move into those ungoverned areas as they know that they are an easy place to operate from. UN should intervene when this happens.
IS can be defeated in the same way Hitler and Napoleon were.........cut off their money and supply chain.
Thanks for that and here was I thinking that the battle of Waterloo and the Normandy Invasion played a big part. Well, cut up their credit cards and job done.IS can be defeated in the same way Hitler and Napoleon were.........cut off their money and supply chain.

Yea but don't you just long for the days when Cameron and Osbourne were considered 'Right of Centre'.![]()
