This is what I'm expecting. I can't see Brexukipreform putting up enough candidates to take 15% of the vote.
Which will put the Tory vote share in the 30's %

Sunak trying to “fight dirty”

It’s like watching the wimpy kid who hangs around with the bullies mouth off at someone only to turn around and realise there is nobody behind him to back him up.
Can’t wait to see his face the day he has to pack his bags and f*** off, the puny little dingus.
Waspi campaigner says Sunak on ‘sticky wicket’ asking for votes until he heeds calls for pension compensation – as it happened
Campaigner for Women Against State Pension Inequality says PM has power to bring legislation before parliament

At what point does Starmer bite back when Sunak trots out the "you have no plan" line with a comeback along the lines of "Windfall tax on energy sector was our idea before yours; removal of non-dom tax breaks was our policy you stole, [etc]. If we have no plan, why do you keep stealing our policies?"
Edit: would be better to say "the only good policies you've implemented have been Labour policies; windfall tax, non-dom removal. If we have no plan, why do you keep stealing our policies?"

Hundreds of thousands of students could be left unable to vote if the government calls an October general election, because there may not be enough time to register them, universities and student unions have warned.

Councils are increasingly rejecting requests to assess children for special needs such as autism amid the financial crisis in the education system, according to figures seen by the Observer. Long-term underfunding combined with rising demand aggravated by the pandemic has left many councils facing significant deficits on their schools budgets.

I think they will keep 100 or so candidates in areas like Stoke etc.

Over 60s oyster card acceptable, under 60 not. Old person bus pass acceptable, young persons rail card not. ...

People keep saying this, but it simply isn’t true. While most polling predicted a narrow Remain win it was tight and within the margin of error, and it clearly showed the polls tighten over the weeks leading up to the vote.

The bookies definitely had odds on Remain
"Bookies said that with just a few days to go until the vote betting has swung behind remain.
On Monday William Hill cut their odds for remain twice, as they went from 4/11 to 1/3 and then to 2/7 (a 77% chance), while leave was lengthened twice, from 11/5 to 9/4, then to 13/5 (a 27% chance).
While Betfair also placed the odds for remain at 2/7 – the best since May – while Brexit odds have drifted to 7/2, equivalent to a 22% chance.
Betfair spokeswoman Naomi Totten said: “With just three days left until the vote the Betfair market momentum is now all behind remain, which was backed as low as 1/5 this morning, with one customer backing it to the tune of £100k."
Full details. The ones just before the election were all pretty much hardening up for remain. But, a small percentage swing in the margin of error was enough.

The bookies don’t run the opinion polls.

This is not unusual.
Truss chartered a plane to Australia to sign the ‘world leading’ and also British farmer-f***ing trade deal. Flight was £454,626 and she and her 11 person entourage got through £15k+ worth of refreshments on that flight at our expense. Bet it wasn’t British ham sandwiches!
