Re: June 8th General Election
Quote:
Support for Theresa May's ruling Conservatives was at 50 percent in a Comres poll published on Saturday, putting the prime minister on course for a landslide election victory on June 8.
The main opposition Labour party was unchanged on 25 percent.
The poll for the Sunday Mirror newspaper of 2,074 people surveyed on April 19 and 20 put the Conservatives' vote share up 4 percentage points from last week and was the highest for the party in a Comres poll since 1991.

Another survey, this one for the Sunday Express, also revealed as many as one in seven Labour voters were planning to switch from red to blue on June 8.
Leadership and Brexit were said to be the main reasons for the mass defection giving an even further boost to the PM’s campaign.

Meanwhile in Scotland:
Quote:
NICOLA Sturgeon has reacted to a shock poll predicting Theresa May will take a dozen seats off her in Scotland by claiming the election is a “two horse race” between the SNP and the Tories.
The First Minister is going on the attack as she tries to hold on to her party’s seats on June 8 in the face of surging support for the Conservatives north of the border.

She won't be able to play games with a sharply reduced number of SNP MPs.
