Professor John Curtice Makes Surprising Prediction For General Election 2019 - LBC

"I think the safest prediction is that we will have a record number of non-Conservative and non-Labour MPs in this parliament.”

lbc.co.uk/radio/presente…
“it is an election that they and the other opposition parties simply need to deny the Conservatives a majority.”

Think long about this.

Curtice sees something that both SNPs and Lib Dems saw.

The best chance of stopping Brexit is in fact a GE even if it feels counter-intuitive
He’s a cautious man. When he says “more” I think we should work to make that “MUCH more”.

The key is these Tory Govs have made no friends. Whereas is we work hard we can build bridges to bring about a better balance than we have at present with FAR more committed remain MPs
MOST polls overestimated the Tory and Labour results in the LE19 & EU19 & nearly all seriously seriously underestimated the vote share for both LD and Greens. @IpsosMORI got the EU19 forecasts pretty spot on and @YouGov was close.

Time to dry those tears and get campaigning!
