The maths hasn’t changed. Vote Labour, however bad on Brexit, or enable pure Tory Brexit. There would be some anti-Brexit breakaway attempt but where are those votes going? The Lib Dems? The Greens? Wasted votes in my constituency.Yossarian wrote:There’s polling out there suggesting Labour will drop to third place if they go into a GE backing Brexit, but whether or not that would hold up, who knows?

Why is polling heralded as anything conclusive?
Polling showed remain would win handily

Thats got nothing about an election though?
Among all voters in the 262 Labour-held seats things are more evenly split. Remain is the preferred option in 152 constituencies with 110 backing the Deal. Remain also comes out on top in all 53 seats held by other parties (including all of the 35 constituencies held by the SNP). In a mirror image of Tory voters in Conservative constituencies, if only Labour voters were to choose in each of the party’s 262 constituencies, Remain would win every one.
Yes. The stand-out stat for me there is 52% Remain v 48% No Deal. That's insanity.Yossarian wrote:BTW, this polling does support Gonz’s assertion that MPs should support the deal.Yossarian wrote:Incidentally, this is the polling on the Brexit situation from YouGov using the same methodology as predicted the hung Parliament (which itself is quite different to standard polling): https://yougov.co.uk/topics/politics/articles-reports/2018/12/06/mays-brexit-deal-leads-just-two-constituencies-it-
