Final election predictions 19:44 - Jun 7 with 21258 views | exiledclaseboy | What's yours? What you think WILL happen not what you WANT to happen. Post them here and we can all laugh at the wrong ones on Thursday night/Friday morning. Tory majority of 53 I reckon. | |

Final election predictions on 16:13 - Jun 8 by TheKirkyLife | I'm predicting a record turnout for 18-24 year olds. My 18 year old brother who has zero interest in politics has even been out to vote. On the way there he still hadn't decided what his final vote would be but that his objective was 'to stop the Conservatives'. Labour-SNP Hung Parliament in my opinion. |
Predictable - he wants a Gov to pay for his lifestyle. I want everything free man because it's like fair innit | |

Final election predictions on 16:20 - Jun 8 with 1401 views | Neath_Jack | Tempted to say Labour, but will go with the Tories by a gnats cock. Let's be honest, it could be absolutely anything, with those who get closest to the outcome on here will be like peacocks around the board for the next few months. | |

Final election predictions on 16:05 - Jun 8 by exiledclaseboy | If labour increases its vote share from 2015, which seems likely, Corbynistas will undoubtedly claim it as a triumph and vindication of his leadership, which will then continue unabated. |
And they'd be right to do so... Itd be miraculous in the circumstances of outright media hostility and the PLP actively undermining him. | |

If the turnout in that demographic is particularly high it could make the outcome interesting. It won't help that it's been lagging down for most of the day. | |

he doesn't mention what his lifestyle is, other than non political, or how it is currently paid for. he might be a land owning, over £80K earning, CGT paying 18 year old for all you know. A very typical little Englander, tory attitude by yourself. My neighbours 18 year old son is a very hardworking, polite and intelligent young man and a credit to his family and his generation. Many 18 year olds are like this. They realise the state will give them nothing till they reach their state pension age about 70ish. | |

Pretty much everyone is a left winger at 18, why wouldn't you be? | |

Mate of mine from school was arch Tory through all our comprehensive school years. Remember this was Penlan in the 80s. Few of us were politically engaged at all, even fewer prepared to admit to being Tory. In fact he was the only one I knew. He switched to labour in his early 20s. Right about the same time he came out as gay. He then went to work for the BBC. He's such a cliche. | |

It's also telling his rationale for voting is "stop tories". Not positively vote for someone... | |

There is a lot wrong with that and especially at that age. He's already been brainwashed by all the other sheep out there. In 2010 he was not even a teenager. | |

Final election predictions on 09:05 - Jun 8 by blueytheblue | No, any Tory win isn't a triumph. If the majority remains the same or closes, it's an absolute disaster for the Tories. Any Tory government is "unpopular" to many. In this instance, Labour have been far, far worse. It's been a terrible Tory campaign. Tories will win with an increased majority, showing Corbyn's support to be a very vocal minority. Mooted replacements for Corbyn like Clive Lewis may not even be re-elected. What I see is that we know Hammond will be gone at the first reshuffle. I can't see May lasting that long past Brexit. |

Indeed, and if Corbyn fails by the narrowest of margins, then the teacherous like Hillary Benn and others in the PLP should hang their heads in shame. Then get the Hell out of the party they betrayed and leave it to the membership to move it forward. | |

The Corbynista brand is built on victimhood, they thrive off what they see as their enemies i.e. those that have temerity to disagree. Blairites et al havent said a word for ages now. | |

There's everything wrong with it! Can't find a positive reason to vote for Labour, Lib Dems, whoever - can only think of a negative reason to vote against someone rather than for someone. Isn't that utterly depressing? | |

Well yes but it's not his fault if none of the parties appeal to him but one appeals less than the others. The fact that he's engaged enough to vote at all is a huge positive. If he'd been voting for the Tories to stop Labour you'd have been all like "right on, Tarquin." | |

Final election predictions on 17:34 - Jun 8 with 1227 views | WxmJax | My MP was canvassing on Saturday and I said to their agent, that I didn't know whether to vote on National Issues or locally and that I have a problem with Diane Abbott. The MP said that it wasn't a problem as Labour weren't going to win. I said that was not a good thing to say with them being a Labour MP and they replied, why not ? It's the truth. | |

Negativity? You'd know all about that. The Tory party ran what has to be the most negative campaign in post-war history. | |

Nope, I'd have had the same view. Voting negatively just displays a lack of belief in anyone, anything... | |
