If Trump's Climate Change Withdrawal Pushes UK to Labour, can the UK un-Brexit?

@izzythepush,
Not Romeo. More likely the return of the Lord, I suspect.

OK everyone, rather than do the usual casting of nasturtiums against people who do not post something that is in total agreement with the usual suspects, lets put our proverbial money where our mouths are.

This thread is asking whether something like Trumps idiocy can push people in the UK towards voting Labour.
Many opinions have then been offered, and many quotes of figures made from various polls and newspaper articles, some of them quite laughably, in my humble opinion, even saying that Labour could win or that there could be a hung parliament.

I said that this is total rubbish, and gave a quite realistic reason. I also stated that I wished to see a good showing from the opposition, as this is a healthy thing to have.

I was then belittled for this by the usual means, using the usual nasty nicknames route.

OK then. In an effort to see who really has their fingers on the collective pulse, rather than just snorting useless facts and figures from the sidelines, lets see your forecasts.

I have already stated that, for reasons of the Corbyn team being not what the country want at this time, to put it mildly, the Tories will sweep the board and end up with a majority of 105.

What do you all say?

Playground nicknames aside, let us see who was right, and who was wrong.

At least May's idea of a speedy election with a short campaign, then extending the lead, and get strong winds on her back for a hard Brexit, well, at least she should know by now where the lands lies. (Even when she didn't answer questions - she surely must have heard them.)

I think, some in the herds of voters really might have forgotten that she's been Home Secretary. And especially traditional conservative voters aren't affected by all the cuts (might change past election).

I really think that she'll get a lead of about 70 seats ... unless a lot of young persons go to the polls ...

@Blickers,
Well, it would be really great if Britishers get a chance to vote for final Brexit again.

@Anna Johnson,
Why? Because you don't agree with the first result?

@izzythepush,
Is Teresa May the daughter of Thatcher?

@Finn dAbuzz,
You have been asked many serious questions and you run off here to do exactly what you were just chastising farmerman for doing.

Finn, that is so childish.

@centrox,
You have to resort to this, Centrox, instead of addressing the issues. You are very good at not addressing the issues.

Most likely.

If the Tories win by less than 50, will you post a William Tell overture video and write a blurb above it about how much you love the Lone Ranger?

According to the exit polls, it looks like a hung parliament - Conservatives the largest party, but missing the majority.

@lmur,
The site shows as many conservatives as the next three parties combined.

Does this mean they'll all have to work together?

@Kolyo,
While it's too early to say, the Tories may be able to form a working majority with the support of Northern Irish Unionists, who supported Brexit.
