    But they still will not get as many seats (under the FPTP system) as either Labour or the OCnservatives and probably not many more than the SNP - from the same You Gov link) ]You Gov - Lib Dems lead the polls

    Once again heavily weighted in favour of the south of England, of the 1763 people sampled, 763 ( 43%) live in London(18% of the 763) or the South, 407 (23%) live in the Midlands/Wales, 429 (24%) live in the NORTH, and 164 (9%) liv in Scotland. Just saying!

      YouGov weights GB political surveys by (1) age interlocked with gender and education, (2)
      political attention (3) social grade (4) 2017 recalled vote interlocked with region and (5) EU
      referendum recalled vote. Weighting targets are YouGov estimates, data sources used in the
      calculation of targets are cited below. General election voting intention figures are additionally
      weighted by likelihood to vote. The poll was carried out online.
      YouGov Weighting Data
      All polls are subject to a wide range of potential sources of error. On the basis of the historical
      record of the polls at recent general elections, there is a 9 in 10 chance that the true value of a
      party’s support lies within 4 points of the estimates provided by this poll, and a 2 in 3 chance that
      they lie within 2 points.
      Just saying.

        So they basically fudge the results until they get the result somewhere close to what they want and then publish.

          I guess that must be how it looks to a paranoid cretin like you. I've tried to help you today but you are beyond help.

            If that poll is correct then it translates into seats as follows:

                There is a whole world out there that is beyond the grasp of your pitifully limited intellect.
