The polls don't clearly suggest that, and we shouldn't jump on individual polls.<br /><br />However, it does look like the surge to Labour we saw has run out of steam. I think they can pull off a few % more, but the 40% of 2017 is looking pretty unlikely now.<br /><br />The gap is still uncomfortably close for Johnson, and he really needs to get well over 42% of the vote to be sure of a decent majority. That and prey Labour don't push a little higher into the upper 40's by Thursday. <br /><br />He is also likely to have to contend with unionists losing NI at Westminster level too, completing the trinity, which will have the EU/Eire eagerly demanding the full backstop of his new majority or no trade deal at all with anyone in the world, US included.<br /><br />The UK actually loses trade bargaining power with a majority government ironically. Johnson can't beg for concessions if he has a majority. He's not got the excuse of needing these to get a deal through any more. At the same time, a brexited UK has zero influence on the world stage. It's a wee minnow which will be eaten alive. <br /><br />There isn't a way forward for brexit that doesn't see the UK break up in a horrible mess. <br /><br />It's just a question of how fascist England becomes towards us Scots in its British Empire death throes.
