Obviously these mean fuck all taken standalone, but certainly no sign of narrowing or an election bounce for the Tories yet. Opposite direction in fact.

I'd say she's bang on tbh. I think when you look at 8-10 year olds now compared to pre-covid they are stunted socially. They all seem to have a maturity a few years below their age bracket because they've missed that formative time at school and instead spent months on youtube getting an inexplicable american accent.

 

Year 5 is what she teaches which I think is in that bracket you're talking about (I know fuck all about kids schoolyears).

When the editor of Conservative Home is swinging punches at him during the election campaign you know he's really in the shit.

Aye year 5 is 9-10 so right in the middle. I think before that age it's probably difficult to tell, but by around 8 kids start to pick up on social cues - when to keep your mouth shut to avoid saying anything mental in public that a parent may have to explain on your behalf, or may see you chinned at dinnertime as an example. This latest batch of youngins will be in secondary before they learn, because there will be a bunch of 14+ year olds that won't take kindly to a year 7 letting their mouth go.

That’s another thing that shows the desperation. Putting forward the illusion that he did this incredible selfless thing with furlough. And placing that at the front and centre of his campaign. It’s almost as ridiculous as the national service idea that they’d think that would be some big vote winner. The cherry picking too. Like it’s basically saying judge us only on very specific parts of our record and forget about the rest of the mess

My eldest was working in a pharmacy during COVID, she'd have been 17/18 and had zero social life because of it, the youngest was doing her GCSE's and ditto with the social life, plus loads got marked down iirc and should've had higher marks. I also worked throughout going into a factory with no real protection other than trying and staying away from each other which was for the birds considering the job. But the bairns need to be thankful? Fucking odious cunt probably sat in the garden throughout on social media slagging all and sundry off in the usual Tory way.

The other thing about that, which you just reminded me of, when schools had to mark the pupils based on what they thought they would achieve. And the state schools were by and large very fair and all the fee paying ones gave vastly inflated grades. I assume the kids who are not from  rich backgrounds (because they are the ones national service would be aimed at) should be grateful about that too. 
I looked up that Bretton wanker and he’s a former army officer. So his posh sprogs / grandkids wouldn’t be what he has in mind either

Another one. No good news for Tories yet. 12k sample on this one. 

 

Apparently Tories have been whispering all day about a poll coming out today with good news for them. 

 

I think there's one to go, but they can all fucking sit down cos there's been two with bad news, so we win.

Kuntsberg is going to be the anchor on election night. So on this rare occasion, her presence should make it even better  tv

I think I'm gonna watch 4 and flick around the others.

 

Maitlis and Guru-Murthy with Alistair Campbell and Rory Stewart as guests, I think it is.

I'll be off the next day so even though I'll have been up very early on Thursday I'll be stopping up to watch a lot of it. Looking forward to seeing memes of Laura and fave party members faces the next day.

Naah, this was the one that was rumoured to be the good news. Labour polling literally twice as high. Nice.

I mean, GB news might be worth it for the lols. BUt aye, Kuensberg unravelling will also be fun.

Mostly it doesn't matter. The look on the conservatives faces after they Portillo one after the other will be glorious.

It's the JL Partners one that's just come out that is "good news" for Tories. 

 

Labour lead down from 15 to 12, but JLP say this would still mean a "categorical" Labour victory, which doesn't sound like good news for Tories?

I've taken the next day as leave. Having a full on overnight party on the sofa with blankets, fizzy pop and Ben&Jerrys. Not even joking

Seems like an outlier anyway tbh. It’s been Labour in the low 40%s and the Tories in the low 20%s for ages now. I think people have made their minds up in a lot of cases too. It would take something remarkable to even see Labour ‘only’ get a majority like the ‘landslide’ one Johnson got

Exact same. Had the holiday request in within half an hour of dickhead announcing the date.
