May And Corbyn Tonight Channel 4.
Will be fascinating to see how they perform tonight. As a Tory, fear that May might seem aloof, cold and nervous; Corbyn laid-back and' reasonable'.

"I find it immensely confusing how anyone lands at the decision to vote for her"
I have the same thoughts about people who intend to vote Labour with Corbyn at the helm with McDonnell and Abbott in the next two most important posts.
I find it absolutely head-scratchingly perplexing and worrying that some people actually think that Labour in its current form is a viable alternative. People who will be voting for Labour are essentially saying "yes please, I'd like the economy to be well an truly ballsed-up over the next five years".
My questions would have been about the Success Tax, how he intends to fund his pie in the sky promises (because the success tax won't do it) and his terrorism sympathising views.

DD....I think its more complicated that you make out.
The Labour manifesto has been well received and whatever you say, it is costed. Judging by what happened last night, a lot of people are coming to the conclusion that perhaps Corbyn isn't such a bogey man after all.
I realise that you have made your mind up, and a lot of people have as well. But there are enough undecided voters out here, to make the Tory majority less secure than everybody thought 3-4 weeks ago.
I still think May will win, but if she has gone through all this is have a very not much bigger majority, than she will have acheved ery little

Theresa May is a liar. I find it immensely confusing how anyone lands at the decision to vote for her
She's a politician therefor the chances of her being a liar are quite high.
Has Corbyn ever met with the IRA?
Corbyn
''I never met the IRA''
''You've met convicted IRA members''
Corbyn
''They told me they were not in the IRA''

Morning Sqad !
It would only be wishful thinking. I would like it to happen but I can't see it myself.
But just imagine if it did ! The Libs, whilst being awfully goods chaps and all that, are now not in any position to get that long spoon out, ready to sup with the Devil.
So who would May turn to for support ? An intriguing "what if" scenario, if ever I saw one !

The bookies are still favouring Theresa May:-

I won't defend Jeremy Corbyn's record re: the IRA as I think it's a serious case of poor judgement (although it is not enough to dissuade me from thinking a Corbyn premiership would be the least bad result).
The point is, how can anyone who agrees with Theresa May's principles be sure she will stick to them? She's utterly slippery. Corbyn, meanwhile, has campaigned on exactly the same ideas (some right, some wrong) consistently since about 1980. You know what you're getting.

Still not seen it although I did hear about the "no deal better than bad deal" applause. It's such a shame to see that statement applauded, since it's utterly devoid of meaning. What does Theresa May think a "bad deal" is? And can she tell us, properly, what the consequences of "no deal" are?
She might know the latter, although I don't think she's given it any real thought; but she certainly can't know what the deal on offer will be in the end, and whether or not it's "bad" by her assessment (or anyone else's). About as vacuous as "Brexit means Brexit", "Strong and Stable", or "Red, White and Blue Brexit (as in a French-inspired one perhaps?)
And yet it's been lapped up by so many. I wish I could be surprised, but it's probably the same phenomenon that's responsible for Trump's success. Empty rhetoric works, apparently.
It's a bit of a weird statement anyway because she's selling herself as a negotiating genius capable of getting the best possible deal for the UK, so a "bad deal" should be off the table to start with. But there you go.
