My current polling average puts:

 

LAB at a 15 month low, w/ 36.7%

LDM at a 16 month high, w/ 9.7%

CON at a post-chequers high, w/ 39.3%

 

Don't like to read TOO much into opinion polls, but suggests that LAB are losing supporters from both sides of the Brexit divide.

Note that the polling started before the Lib Dem conference, not that it was exactly prominent in the news bulletins.

Hopes!!

 

Yippee!!

 

I'm not sure where they get 43 SNP MP's from, though? They currently have 35, and they'd probably lose as many to Lab as they might gain from Tories.

Thanks to the Fixed Term Parliament Act (cheers Nick Clegg...) there won't be a snap general election. I cannot see the appetite for it from 2/3 of the HoC -

 

Secondly, even IF there were to be a snap election, the result would likely be the same hung parliament we have currently (going on recent Opinion Polls) with no party nor coalition able to command a majority.

I cannot see the opposition winning a no-confidence vote anyway - whatever the issues within the Tory party over Brexit, and others, they will surely be united in wanting to prevent an early election!
