She is guilty of something. That photo of her with Sturgeon made me say that Sturgeon had nice legs :-(

It is due to the profilling that Polling co's now do on polls.. they were so far out in 2015 that they now model the polls.... it depends on what the model they have written says to what the outcome would be. E.G they think that more people who say they will vote Tory will actually go to the polling station and vote compared to the Labour voters.. the same with undecided, they model that of x% that say they don't know, more will end up voting Tory than Labour, so they stick that in the Computer and come up with their numbers

Her sole schtick is 'safe pair of hands' and she's fvcked it by running the shoddiest Tory campaign since the early 2000s.

as I mention in my other post I am suspicious of all these have your say/vote adverts aimed at the youngsters.
Youtube is at it. Facebook is at it.

It is essentially an anti-tory measure dressed up as public concern. Nobody can object to companies encouraging people to vote, but everyone knows it's actually a party political measure to get more young people to vote Labour.

Right. The same as pulling the numbers out of their arses but they can make more money. Always been that way, so far as I know.

Another way of looking at it is not that they've run a shoddy campaign, but that for the first time in memory they've known they can push through policies that are disliked by their core voter base and still get away with it come polling day. This is most evident in their social care policy, which seems to be to be a policy that someone of a left-leaning persuasion would ordinarily fully support, if it were not the Tories who were proposing it.

Well, I liked her only because she seemed to broadly say the right things re fiscal constraint and Brexit, and she struck me as being ruthless. PMs, in fact all leaders, should be ruthless imo and I can't say as the UK has had a PM I would describe that way since I moved here in 95.

I think she's desperate for the job and realized that Brexit could well leave her in a no win situation in the next election so she went for the election and produced a manifesto that tried to appeal to too many and as such appealed to too few.

I'm hoping that once she has the job she returns to Tory roots and is ruthless about it.
