The Conservative lead over Labour has shrunk by seven points, a new poll has indicated.
The YouGov poll, conducted for The Times, showed support for the Tories at 45 per cent, down three percentage points from last week.
Labour increased its support by four points to 29 per cent, while the Liberal Democrats were down two points to 10 per cent and Ukip rose two points to seven per cent. (cont.)

That's apparently an MP (Nicholson), a council office, and the SNP hq sent (fake afaik ) suspect packages. Maybe it's just me, but why don't I know about this? I heard something about it and so went to the BBC website yesteray, nothing, went to the Scotland page, nothing, went to the Scottish politics page. Nothing.
Our model sees the Tories on 422 seats, with Labour reduced to just 150, and the Lib Dems declining from 9 to 6.

I saw a ticker tape mention of a white substance posted to politician(s) on the BBC website earlier today.
There is an article.

chairman bill wrote:A vote for Theresa May will mean a government that is stable, strong, and very, very long. With soft cuddly labrador puppies for the rich, and shit for everyone else. Just sayin'.
Feeling pretty strong and stable today, might go to an empty warehouse and talk to some shelves.

chairman bill wrote:Strong & stable has already become a joke. People are laughing at her 'strong & stable' line. But she's so strong she can't face Corbyn, Sturgeon et al. in a TV debate. If she can't do that, she's hardly strong enough to be negotiating with 27 EU countries over Brexit. She's left herself wide open on this one. Strong & stable will be replaced with the equally alliterative 'weak & wobbly', then she's toast.
Interesting, thanks. Do you think that the EU is basically the one with all of the bargaining chips, and the UK is just going to have to take what's on offer?Scot Dutchy wrote:That is biggest understatement almost of all times.
