A hung parliament wouldn't bother me one bit.

Every other Party bar the DUP would never support the Cons back in governnent anyhow.

However as much as polling can be believed there's NOT a single poll out to now that indicates a hung parliament currently
The lowest lead for Labour presently in any is 14% then up to other leads of from 20% to 23%

Even the lowest one indicates, if right, an overall majority of anything from 50, the other larger poll leads indicate up to well over 100+

I'd like to see any current poll that disputes that.

However as I'm not in favour of massive overall majorities for any Party with under 50% of the votes cast.
I'd prefer more accountable government that can be held more to account too with only a small or even NO overall majority in place.

Tony Blair had around 44% of votes in 1997 and got a 170+ overall majority
That is an obscenity to democracy.

As to the Nurses strike.
Starmer better back the Nurses.
It will be shameful if he doesn't

I back them all the way and think it a disgrace this government has brought the nurses to the point they are today.
Undervalued and treated like they're mess on the Con Party's shoes.
Absolutely shocking.
