As usual, the polsters are predicting a conservative landslide, with the lib dems getting back towards their last number, but as they've been wrong the last few times, can anyone predict this outcome acurately.
Labour voters will more than likely not bother to vote, and some brexit voters will swap to the the lib dems as a protest against a hard brexit, but as brexit is what the GE is all about, there's no precedent to judge it on. If the conservatives get in comfortably, then they'll go ahead with the boundary changes, and labour won't get back in to power for maybe 20 years; and as Kinock said, not again in his lifetime. Ukip might pick up 2 seats, but I doubt if the Greens will do any better than Caroline Lucas, but even she could get dumped as she a staunch remainer.
Northern Ireland will be allowed to reunite in a few years, and even though the Scotish conservatives will pick up more seats, Sturgeon will still push for another independance referendum.
And no matter how many people accuse TM of reneging on her promise not to call an election, it was the right thing to do, politically, to give her office a legitimate mandate, and to settle once and for all the direction the country is coing to take.
We are in for an intereting 7 weeks; most of which we won't agree on.
