There's no question to answer. He's not actually a politician and never has been.

There is a strong possibility of snow on Election day according to some forecasters. That should make it interesting.

He is now promising tax cuts and substantial additional spending.

Absolute bullshit.

People swallow it up though. They complain about a lack of services then celebrate a tax cut. It's insane.

No, not really, to be fair to the Lib Dems they're not that honest and transparent.

I think the slowly shrinking lead in the poles and all the talk of tactical voting has got them worried.

Sadly I still think they will just about creep over the line with a small majority. They just need to keep Boris away from the public for the next 7 days.

Labour are closing in on the Tories but it seems to have been at the expense of the Liberals. The Remain vote appears to be moving towards Labour. Polling shows that the decision by the Brexit Party to back the conservatives was also a good move for Johnson.

There does seem to be a shift towards independents as well.

Agreed, we're also haemorrhaging the working-class votes in the north, plus Scotland is going full SNP.
