Mainly by not winning an election.
You're more confident than me
Not that I think it's a dead cert, of course. We don't even have a clue when the next GE will be, for starters.
Along with pretty much everyone else I was hopelessly wrong on the outcome of the last one. **** knows.You're more confident than me

I was very much right, which is why my current instincts scare the shít out of me
I got predictions of that result, from those in the know, to within about 1%. I ignored them.I was very much right, which is why my current instincts scare the shít out of me
What makes that even more stupid is that the same sources told me the outcome of the referendum pretty much spot on. I ignored them then as well and clearly failed to learn the lesson.
Sounds like there's a few bob to made from your sources next time round, for the gamblingistically inclined.
Its intelligence gathered from street level campaigning and canvassing. It tends to reflect the polls reasonably closely, usually with a particular slight one way but the prediction is recognisable. On these two occasions it wasnt, at all. I assumed it was wrong. It was wrong in 92 and again in 2015. I ignored it both times and was proved right.
So, its roughly 2-2
