Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

Whatever next... PMSL

Probably the risk of attack is 100% more for women as compared to men!

I didn't think they could use smart phones...... I'll get me coat!

Just been asked by a French man "is David Cameron a Poofter?"

Told him I didn't know.

Heard the latest UK economic figures and the chances of an economic miracle within 2 years.

That should improve the polls for Hays.

But France is beautiful, warm and friendly and seems their infrastructure is being prepared the eventual recovery.

Fred You spin so much you must be dizzy. lol. That's why France is sitting on a debt pile worse than ours. France's public debt 89.9% 0f GDP.

Jittery Labour is on the road to civil war, the headline in the Express. Typical Labour has not given voters a compelling case as to why Britain would be better off under Labour.

Bad 3 weeks for the government.

Standard OF Living dominating the agenda and Labour with upper hand.

Labours lead goes up to 8%.

UK - YouGov/Sun poll: CON 31%, LAB 39%, LDEM 11%, UKIP 11%

Did they translate the poll results into probable seats?

Look how the public's attitude to the cuts has changed and now is behind the government.

MaxK....... here we are..........

Latest UNS Projection..... labour lead 76 Outright majority.

Uniform Swing Projection

238 363 23 8 18
-287



The standard method of translating shares of the vote into seats is to use a uniform swing calculation. This means that the national change in vote share for each party is applied to each individual seat to see how that would effect the result, and then these theoretical results in each seat are totted up to produce a projection for House of Commons.

This is a crude measure and can result in some illogical and impossible projections – for example, if a poll showed Labour support dropping by 13%, as one poll did during Summer 2008, then a uniform swing calculation using those figures would project Labour getting less than zero votes in 48 seats. This is clearly nonsense. Such projections also ignore any regional variations, tactical considerations or variations due to incumbency effects of new MPs or MPs standing down. Despite all these drawbacks, it normally does a reasonably good job and, given that it is a straight extrapolation of current voting figures it is at least accepted as a fair projection that is not at the whim of individual guesswork or assumptions

get a life all of you .... you all seem to be totally fixated by these meaningless polls that come out on almost a daily basis from which little if anything can be genuinely interpreted, least of all "how many sets etc etc"

None of it matters as the Conservatives are on course for a clear majority. The economy is going their way and the public are behind the cuts. Above all, once the economy has picked up, the public won't trust Labour to manage the money again. Every time Labour has left office the economy is wrecked.

Sick or what?

That looks like Fred's dream site! :-)

Thanks gf, that's all we need, an outright majority under "radar" Millibum.

Mind you, he's playing a blinder at the moment.

The trend is heading away from Labour and UKIP.
