You're predicting a majority in excess of 250? It is in part a wish list there are about 10-12 picks I am confident about and a few like Skinner Watson Farron and Clegg that I have heard speculation about but am not convinced.Islington North Hackney Hayes and Harlington etc are purely wishful thinking on my part:P Also by picking a fair few no hopers I might get the Portillo moment I would say Tory majority of 30 realistically.

RoverAndOut 4,746 Posted June 6, 2017 Still not decided on my 25, every time I look the polls have changed. Think there's going to be a lot of changes too, with lots of parties exchanging seats and no clear pattern. Some are going to surprisingly hang on while others will shockingly lose, it should be a fascinating night. Or the polls are wrong (again) and Theresa May gets a stonking 100+ majority. Either way, I have around 36 hours to make my final choices... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deathray 2,941 Posted June 7, 2017 Just a reminder the deadline is 06.59am tomorrow before polls open rather than when the polls close to give me time to organise the masterlist and points in time for the polls closing. Another reminder that publicising any form of exit poll during the election period is against the law, so if you've got news from the ground suggesting you good prediction before polls close, you might be wise not to mention it until they do.

YoungWillz 21,076 Posted June 8, 2017 Hmm, I'll probably be too busy and furious to chat.

YoungWillz 21,076 Posted June 9, 2017 7/25 for me. Not bad, I could have got another three on bare majorities. Unlikely to win I guess.
