Even Labour now falling too.
Like David Steele, at this rate Farage must be preparing for government.

Ironically with FPTP, this helps Labour, splitting the centre right to far right vote in constituencies. Probably helping the LibDems too.
FPTP expert @Harry Wilson's tackle will be elated.

With the racist vote split seems unlikely.
But this is Britain and we're very good at committing self harm to ourselves, usually instructed by people that don't live here or pay tax here

They would have to get it wrong by a margin they have never got it wrong before at this stage.They did in 1992.
Could the opinion pollsters actually get it wrong?
But polls aren't static, they change as people change their minds.
I wonder if Reform finishing second and winning one seat might focus a few minds on PR?

Is Eric standing?
I said earlier in the year I’d be surprised if they got one and staggered if they got more than five
I am convinced Farage will win but beyond that I stand by my previous statement
I am.
Would need a serious loss of composure from Starmer, à la Kinnock's 'alright' suicide festival. Don't see it myself. Kinnock was always a disaster waiting to happen.They did in 1992.

The ITV debate is curious, Mordor seems intent on pursuing a narrative that the Labour manifesto is all lies and that Labour will take us straight back into the EU. Meanwhile the SNP man is disgusted with Labour for not promising to take us back into the EU.
Farage and Mordor keep interrupting. Pair of rats.

1992 saw polls narrowing during the campaign and over the 18 months prior, that’s not happened at all this time aroundThey did in 1992.

Just the classic narrowing that always happens as the election gets closer and closer. People are actually thinking now about the realities of who they want to vote for, rather than just backing the opposition with general anger at the government

The targeting of Rayner by everyone bar Farage is a pattern on these debates. All going for the same marginal voters leaving the Tories.
Nothing personal against her, but in both debates she appears overwhelmed by it all. Whilst the ultra full of themselves patriarchy of Quinn and Farage are able to dominate at will. Definitely hopeless time keeping eg Denyer barely gets a word in.
