They will be fighting even to come second because You Kipp will split their vote.  Someone from Labour was recently asked if Labour would go into coalition with LibDems. She said there would be no point because after next election Libdems wouldn't have enough MPs to make it worthwhile. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Vague_Boy   10 #3 Posted July 6, 2013 The Tories now know they have no chance of winning next election.  Will this mean an end to the incessant NuLabia trolling on SF?  After all, if you've already got the next election in the bag, might as well put your feet up for the next 2 years.

Itinerary   10 #5 Posted July 6, 2013 The Cons did not win the last election, they merely ceased power by default using a flawed electoral system. They are hardly likely to win the next election either after years of looking after their own and forcing the poor into homelessness and helplessness. Many deaths of the poor and helpless are on their hands. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Funky_Gibbon   42 #6 Posted July 6, 2013 Please go and read http://ukpollingreport.co.uk/ for an explanation about why you shouldn't get all excited. And the same goes for all the Tory and UKIP supporters who do the same whenever a poll comes in that ostensibly looks bad for Labour.

They are hardly likely to win the next election either after years of looking after their own and forcing the poor into homelessness and helplessness. Many deaths of the poor and helpless are on their hands.  And Tories are far less popular now than at last election and couldn't even win then despite a hate campaign against Gordon Brown from the right wing press.

Survation measures public opinion and attempts to reach accurate conclusions about what people really think.  Register using our simple sign-up form and start earning cash right now.  Your views & opinions mean a lot to us. We now pay cash for every survey you take, up to £2.50 per survey depending on time taken.  So not only are the participants self selected, which means you get a statistically unreliable sample, they get paid for taking part.  You could reasonably claim that the only thing this survey proves is that UKIP supporters are the most likely to take part in surveys when they can make money out of it.

Is there a particular reason for that as they seemed to explain why this poll had figures so different from all the others?   Thanks for that anarchist, It seems the main difference between Survation methods and the other polling firms, is that they include Ukip in their main prompt, which is of course how it will be in a General Election situation. Ukip voters tend to be old former Tory voters who perhaps forget about them unless prompted. Do you think the Cons would be better off with a true Tory like Farage as leader?  ---------- Post added 06-07-2013 at 12:03 ----------  It just goes to show that you can find a poll to say pretty much what you want it to say if you are selective enough, which you clearly are.
