Lib Dem is going to split the Labour vote in England and Tories will get an easy majority. Scotland will vote heavily SNP. We barely need an election, the outcome is inevitable .

I think the Brexit Party will split the Tories so we could end up with a hung parliament with literally any combination

The only realistic way for Labour to get into power is to go into a three-way coalition with LibDem and SNP. I think SNP would go against their usual path and agree to one to get the Tories out - but they'd make IndyRef2 a condition of the pact. I doubt Labour would accept those terms as it would be seen as giving a "green light" to the break up of the UK, which they won't want to do... and I can't see SNP entering a full coalition without that promise.

i think the variations in brexit between the tories and the brexit party, and then the variations on ref/revoke make this a very difficult election to predict. Also, elections are weird, what party's think is the key issue often isn't what decides things as something else pops out (like May and her treatment of the elderly in the last election). All I want is for it to come out with a conclusive result and be over quickly.
