A question you might reasonably have is why would Biden take Michigan if he's still ~13k votes behind. Answer is simple - there are ~360k votes left in Wayne County (Detroit) and if they split as they currently are (67% Biden / 32% Trump) Biden lands a net gain of ~100k votes+.

Sky poll tracker has Labour lead at 19 points. No obvious movement. No realistic expectation of this being much different by new years. So why on earth would the Tories be planning to go to the country in May?

Have long thought much of the commentary around Angela Rayner is riddled with misogyny & class prejudice. All politicians deserve scrutiny of course - especially senior ones - but there’s something in the visceral reaction she provokes in some that is hard to ignore.

I get people have their political tribes but some of you are too cynical. Why wouldn’t Matt Hancock be emotional at the thought of light at the end of the tunnel? He’ll have worked his ass off under enormous pressure. Sometimes it doesn’t hurt to see the human side of things.

I get that everyone is on tenterhooks about the prospect of a hung parliament. Understandable. But worth remembering margin of error works the other way too. Lots at stake in the next 48 hours. #GE2019

New - Our final MRP of the campaign shows a small Conservative majority likely. Central estimate is a majority of 28. However at this stage we still cannot rule out a hung parliament.

I don’t care if an 80 year old Paul McCartneys voice isn’t what it was. He’s basically a living Beethoven / Mozart. Put some respect on his name!

And what about the issue that dare not speak its name - Brexit? Well, 55% now think it has had a negative impact on the country. Monthly change is typically incremental but the trend is clear - like air coming out of a balloon. The public dont think it is going well.
