    Right, i've listeded again and he says "how many is there of us?" There's no mention of Robbers.

    I missed that, but i'd like to see the full footage to assertain if the group said something before the "robbers" comment.

    He was spat at so I don't blame him for retaliating.

    The Finals Polls

    I'm currently watching Newsnight and of all the people who say they're undecided I have a little hunch they just don't want to admit on camera that they'll vote Tory.
  6. I've update tonights polls to give a poll of polls: http://www.saintsweb.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=22267 On a uniform swing it'd give the Tories 283 seats but they'll get more than that based on the polls of the marginals where they've achived a 7% swing. It's going to be very close even without the 8 seats from Ulster that they've got to fall back on.
  7. It's nailed on that the conservatives will be the largest party, the only question mark is whether they'll do well enough to have a working majority.
  8. When you say "a Tory win by 5 seats" do you mean 5 seats more than Labour or 330 seats?

    The Finals Polls

    Have you noticed how little we've seen of Osbourne since he made a tit of himself on the chancellors debate at the start of the campaign? Senior Conservative have clearly ordered that he gets as little exposure as possible. Meanwhile we've seen and read much more from Ken Clarke.
  11. Don't be daft. Pitch invasions are for last day escapes/winning the title/promotions.

    The Finals Polls

    The historical polling bias to Labour gets interesting on these numbers We all know about 1992 (a 9.5% overstatement of Labour votes), but there has been consistent overstatement since then 3.5% in 1997, 6.5% in 2001 and 2.9% in 2005 Will it be the same this year or will it be the story for the Lib Dems? I have a sneaky feeling that the Tory vote will rise once voters are in the polling station because there is a stigma attatched to supporting the nasty Tories, but when it comes to putting an X in the box many people see sense and vote Conservative because they know they are the party that is best for the economy.
  13. I will love it if the wishy washy Liberals end up with less seats than they already have. 40 seats a tad low, but I can see them losing 1 or gaining 10 at best.

    The Finals Polls

    Correct, but remember it's the marginals that matter. YouGov also did a final poll of Lab-Con marginal seats, showing a 7 point swing to the Tories

    The Finals Polls

    There is going to be a glut of polls this evening so this thread keeps them all in one place. I'll update the OP as they come in so it'll be easy to see the Final last day polls.
  16. Whats the source for this please Hatch?

    The Finals Polls

    Don't read the thread if you're not interested. And cut out the NF stuff, it gets boring enough when a certain other poster keeps going on about it. It doesn't bother me personally, but it's bloody selfish for everyone else that may just want to read a thread minus the crap.

    There is a Twitter rumour that YouGov is going to be CON 35% LAB 28% LIB 28%

    The Finals Polls

    http://ukpollingreport.wordpress.com/ To keep updated as they come in.
  20. Harris CON 35%(-1), LAB 29%(+3), LDEM 27%(-1) (updated) TNS BMRB CON 33%(-1), LAB 27%(nc), LDEM 29%(-1) Opinium CON 35%(+2), LAB 27%(-1), LDEM 26%(-1) Populus CON 37%(+1), LAB 28%(+1), LDEM 27%(-1) Angus Reid CON 36%(+1), LAB 24%(+1), LDEM 29%(nc) YouGov CON 35%(nc), LAB 28%(-2), LDEM 28%(+4) ICM CON 36%(+3), LAB 28%(nc), LDEM 26%(-2) ComRes CON 37%(nc), LAB 28%(-1), LDEM 28%(+2) So the Poll of Polls (excluding the anomilies) is: CON 36%, LAB 28%, LIB 27% Based on a uniform swing it would give the following result: CON 283 seats, LAB 258 seats, LIB 80 seats However it must be remembered that in LAB-CON marginals polls have suggested a swing of 7% to the Conservatives. Meanwhile in LIB-CON marginals there has been little swing in the polls. It's fair to say that the Conservatives are going to be the biggest party, but the question mark is how close they will get to the magic 326 seats needed for a majority.
  21. Fungi doesn't even live in England.
  22. And anyway up until the 70's it was always the Conservatives + UU. they are natural allies in government. Check it out if you don't believe me. http://www.politicsresources.net/area/uk/uktable.htm
  23. I think the relationship would be more political than financial. I'd have thought you lefties would be making more play on this if you'd thought about it.
  24. It indeed but if concessions are going to be given i'd rather give them to the Unionists in NI than to the SNP and slithery Alex Salmond. At least the Unionists are proud to be British.
