Political analysis, information and gossip, about the 2019 General Election campaign in the Newton Abbot constituency.

[Will Hutton @williamnhutton]

Brexit is a slow burn poll tax on steroids - about to rival it as a national debacle Even Corbyn’s and McDonnell’s puppet candidate - Rebecca Long-Bailey - needs to avoid turning Labour into a 2nd Brexit party.17 million Remain voters will be homeless - stupid politics.

All tactical voting sites say vote for @MartinWrigley or no recommendation. Most tactical sites take the lead from GetVoting. https://t.co/lu8snU8VHG

Today the World Trade Organisation in effect ceases. Its disputes court has been suspended because the US will not appoint judges. Might is now right in world trade. To leave the EU at such a moment is crazed. We must have a 2nd vote. Vote Labour or tactically LibDem tomorrow.

Methodology same for all but dates/sample size/questions differ. Main take away - poll of polls show a fragile @BorisJohnson majority and #TacticalVoting takes us into hung Parl territory for #GE2019

At the risk of playing into gender stereotypes, but if you put tupperware in the oven, all you’ll get is a mess.

#BBCDebate Johnson: all candidates who’ve expressed Islamophobic views have been suspended - EXCEPT YOU!

[Will Hutton @williamnhutton]

If you are a Labour voter in the constituency of city of London and Westminster please vote tactically: it would be the first non tory MP since 1874! LibDem voters please return the favour in Uxbridge and Chingford versus Johnson and IDS. We must stop Brexit + 5 more Tory years.

[Femi @Femi_sorry]

JOURNALISTS!
Stop letting people say "This election isn't about Brexit. It's about the NHS"
That makes ZERO sense when almost all the doctors, nurses, GPs, radiologists & midwives who work in the NHS have been screaming about the threat Brexit poses to it for THREE YEARS!

Trowbridge Lambrok (Wiltshire) result:

LDEM: 57.8% (+25.6)
CON: 42.2% (-3.4)

Liberal Democrat GAIN from Conservative.

No Labour (-15.4) and Green (-6.8) as prev.

[Will Hutton @williamnhutton]

Labour is forecast to repeat 1983 when it won a mere 209 seats on a similar manifesto. It has 14 days to avert the same fate. Corbyn and Swinson must form a Remain Allowance asap to unite Remain vote and urge tactical voting. They won’t: both too tribal. But Its all that’s left.

[Richard Osman @richardosman]

I try not to tweet political opinions, but as it’s my birthday allow me just one. The Tories do want to sell off the NHS. Not in one go, just bit by bit until it’s unrecognisable. You’ll turn up one day and there will be a priority waiting room. They’ve always been open about it.
