UK opinion polls tracker: Tories on course to win with their biggest majority since Thatcher

The Tories are on course to win the general election with a comfortable majority, polls suggest with just three days to go until voting takes place.

Boris Johnson's Conservative Party has maintained a 10-point lead over its nearest rivals, according to an average of opinion surveys from the last seven days.

The poll of polls, compiled by the Press Association...



Fundamentally it's a Daily Mail poll - They're not going to report anything else other than a Tory landslide

Election polls UK 2019: Tories maintain lead over Labour as campaign enters final days

Find out who’s ahead using our opinion poll tracker. With just days until the vote, Labour have tightened the gap but the Tories still have a significant lead. Meanwhile the Lib Dems and Brexit party have seen their support slump

Is it? When we sell off the NHS through the back door of increasing drug costs until its unsustainable and people need health insurance for basic treatments like insulin?

A free point of care service, that thousands of people are proud to work in and support about to be sold off through stealth and ignorance.

That's just your opinion and an opinion I've heard since I was in nappies by Labour supporters in election campaigns.

Reading through the threads it appears that the majority of contributors have may their minds made up on whom they will give their vote to this week.
Is there anyone following on here wavering or undecided?

Or even not voting?

Personally, I feel some of the comments and rhetoric on here and especially so on social media sites that this country is falling into a divisive and ruinous nation, more so than ever before, it'll take some doing and persuasion of the next party to fix the nations problems.

I'm not so sure there will be a clear winner this weekend, it'll be more than likely be another hung parliament ( I hope Labour win by a large margin especially so if the young have been galvanised to vote) - both Labour and Conservatives will need reconsider there extremist policies.

I would agree with much that you say. I think the two main parties have moved too far from the centre ground and that is one of the factors fuelling the division. I think Boris is an odious character and quite possibly a danger to the country. However, I think Corbyn is equally dangerous and equally dangerous. I genuinely fear him becoming PM. I think he cares more about satisfying the huge chips on his shoulders and gaining number 10 to get one up on everyone who considered him a joke for most of his career. He appears to me to be a complete charlatan.

And you’ve got proof of this? Nobody else has. Johnson has said countless times the NHS is not for sale. He wouldn’t dare go back on this.

I wouldn't trust any MSM media mate - even the BBC was broadcasting Fake news earlier today ( actually they've been quite biased to the Tory party, haven't seen hardly any impartiality from them )

Whoever sells the NHS relinquishes power for eternity. That's why no party would dare sell it off/privatise it.

Andrew Neil has hammered Boris Johnson time after time for not showing up for an interview with him.

I don't regard the BBC as right wing leaning, at all. I'm unsure where that comes from with people.

Have a Google on drug patents.

The NHS isn't for sale in the selling of whole hospitals sense but very soon it will be transferred into a "needing insurance, not the NHS" service

I don't know how to quote 2 seperate posts, but as for hearing this since you were in nappies, go and talk to front line staff to see how far resources are stretched, see how frustrated they are at the lack of funding, see how many have left because they can't provide the service they want to

Early night for me tonight, flying back to ponteland airport the morn. Good pint of IPA at the Legion. Drive my grandson to scjool day after then wait with bated breath on returns night.
So Christmas greetings from some of Santas family of helpers (Nisser in Noggiespeak)

That’s the same rhetoric whichever government is running the country tbh.
I’ve said in earlier posts I’ve never voted conservative in my life, but one thing is for certain, I won’t be backing that scruffy, communist terrorist sympathiser. Him Abbott and that other twat, mr brave IRA, are an absolute danger to this country. How anyone can support them beggars belief!

And that is your choice, I only pointed out the whole NHS is not for sale rubbish is technically untrue and suggested our children forgive us for allowing it to happen by voting the tories in on Thursday.

I don't recall mentioning which party I support, although someone did mention it was a typical Labour supporting response.

Oh and there are only 2 parties actively looking to sell our NHS down the river of private health insurance

 

[Sheep Farmer]

You know the Tories were back-channelling the IRA/Sinn Fein, yeah? You know that Johnson wrote a piece for and a piece against Brexit, yes? You know he was a europhile all his life, then switched to Brexit when it suited him, and you trust him to get it done?

I refuse to lose all respect for myself by voting for a man who lies to our faces.

Not sure you'll find anyone to vote for then marra

Nobody will know for sure until a few years down the line. They’re all a load of lying tossers.
I don’t think anyone’s mind will be swayed by anything anyone reads on here. All about opinions and that’s fair enough.

A few years, may well be a couple.

But it's all about opinions and nice to actually discuss it sensibly. We are obviously at opposite ends of the scale but both respected the others view point

I’m not at the end of any scale tbh, I still don’t know who I’m voting for
I might just write f*ck the lot of you on my voting slip.

I regularly read twitter, the BBC journalist that tweet the news - or a version of the 'news' is that it tends not to favour Labour in the grand scheme of reporting - I agree it's possible my left leaning 'bias' will help me to see it that way - as indeed your 'partiality' towards your political stance may do the same. Overall, I wouldn't be surprised that if you ran a search with the words 'BBC and impartiality' on Twitter the trend would favour the Tory news propaganda machine.
