If you put those figures into the electoral calculator then you get a Conservative majority of 134 seats. Wow.

Although only one pollster, it does seem like the Ukip vote is now moving over to the Tories.

The PM has said no General Election until 2020 but I don't quite believe it. I think a lot depends on the court case currently underway as to whether the cabinet can use the Royal Perogative to activate Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty. If the High Court rules no and it has to go to Parliament, then pressure will build on the Tory leadership to hold a snap General Election and secure a large majority.

I'll be voting Conservative so I guess my voting change is being reflected in the polls.

Thoughts?

Good. Definitely the best party to be in power right now - no other party should be anywhere near Downing Street at the moment.

And when you think too that the Conservative election machine hasn't even started on Jeremy Corbyn...

Deserves a hashtag, as the Conservative machine is aggressive, to say the least.

I would normally vote Labour but I'm really not a fan of Jeremy either. So I'm not surprised with this article to be honest.

Corbyn is an idiot. How anyone can vote for him.. ugh

UKIPs collapse is Tory gain.
