Fret not. The Conservatives are heading for extinction in Scotland and London. For them to win the election, given they already do not have a majority, they would have to win loads of seats in Labour heartlands where voters have never returned a Tory clown.

It ain’t happening fella.

And if he comes back with a deal the Brexit party will contest every single seat against him as it wont 'really be Brexit' and let the Lib Dems and Labour get a lot more seats. Hung parliament again with the Tories in third place and nobody is going to want to work with them.

I don't mind a hung parliament. Sure, it stops any of the parties from getting much done. But on the other hand, it stops any of the parties from getting much done.
