Re: Tuesday 21st April 2015
I wonder if the new voters that registered in the last week will make any difference to the polls.
I would think the majority of them might be younger, first time voters so if thats the case theoretically that might swing more votes towards the left.

Re: Thursday 9th April 2015
So the Conservative party are delaying the release of their manifest by 24hrs, so they can "unpick" Labours.
This either means they are terrified of whats in Labours manifesto, or theirs is so threadbare they are going to copy and paste it into theirs.

Apparently its all Labours fault because they were given the files 11 days before Parliament was dissolved, so they should have acted then.
