Bombshell poll shows Tories pushed into third place behind Lib Dems in election bloodbath
Daily Mirror ^ | June 26 | By John Stevens

The Tories are at risk of getting fewer MPs than the Liberal Democrats, according to a mega-poll.

The bombshell survey of almost 20,000 people suggests 20 Cabinet ministers could lose their seats in the bloodbath - including Rishi Sunak.

The poll by Find Out Now and Electoral Calculus predicts that Keir Stamer is heading for a Labour landslide with an unprecedented majority of 250 seats. This would be an even bigger victory than Tony Blair’s historic win in 1997.

If the results are repeated next week on election day, Labour would pick up 450 seats The Tories would be reduced to just 60 MPs, behind the Lib Dems on 71.

The poll suggested that Reform UK could win around 18 seats, including those of Nigel Farage, Richard Tice and Lee Anderson. Over the past fortnight, Find Out Now surveyed 19,993 people - which is around 10 times as many as a typical poll. The MRP (multi-level regression and post-stratification) method was used to successfully forecast the 2017 and 2019 elections.

I wonder if the Brits will pull a Trudeau or a Biden after the Labour Party takes over? It’ll literally become Orwellian.

What has changed over the last 20 years in the demographics of British voters? I ask that question because I think it might be part of the change in the polling about the different parties.

England’s screwed. Labour will do to the UK what Biden did and is trying to continue to the USA.

It is mainly a housing affordability problem in the UK.

That's a factor. But you can ask native Britons and they're basically pissed off at their Tories because all of their leaders sucked. Just imagine having somebody like McCain or Romney as our President.

From what I’ve seen, there’s no public problem that the Democrats (or Labour Party) don’t make worse when they try to fix it.

It was goodbye with the Conservatives, too.

They ruled as if the Labour Party had won. They betrayed every one of their voters every single day.

It’s been clear for a long time, the Conservative Party was going to take a massive beating for their gross mismanagement, allowing illegal immigration to continue even though the voters were very clear they wanted it to stop amongst other things.

Good riddance.

Another factor is that the Conservative Party pretty much refused to support Brexit.

It’s much more than that. The Conservatives had morphed into the Labour Party and made a mockery of what the voters wanted with Brexit and that is just one item. They are a disgrace and deserve what they are going to get.

Tories blew it years ago when they threw out Enoch Powell.
