My prediction Corbyn will suprise everyone by narrowly winning with the remainers voting against the Conservatives with the same zeal that the Brexiteers voted for them.
After all the recent unexpected election results we’ve had, I could never rule that out but it’s still fantastically unlikely IMO. It’d be nice to get the Tories out but the best I’m hoping for is a loss by Labour that is just big enough to make Corbyn’s position untenable (then they can maybe elect a leader that’ll really challenge May’s government) but not so big that they are left powerless in parliament to reign in the Conservatives and unable to recover by the time the next election comes round.
I also really hope the next two months of debate do not consist entirely of journalists asking Labour politicians if they “REALLY believe they can win?”. Please discuss policies and let the electorate decide at the ballot box. Remember the last time when 80-90% of the debate was “Since the Tories obviously cannot win, who do we think they going to go into coalition with?”… and then they won.
Maybe it will be the media asking if they’ve asked President Trump to command Putin to intervene on their behalf to clinch their political positions?
