Journalism forums are all buzzing with the same topic. Not the election but the imminent announcement by the director of public prosecutions about election fraud.

It seems that up to 30 Tory MPs are to be handed to the CPS for election fraud in that they massively overspent their budgets at the last election and deliberately concealed it using methods that have been long employed but only recently uncovered by Channel 4 News and others.

If those MPs were prosecuted they would suspended from parliament and the Tory's overall majority would be wiped out. So May is banking on her present poll lead to increase the majority and also deselect those MPs under investigation before they cause her any serious damage.

This is going to get interesting...

If you don't think the election is about Brexit then you are deluded.

In some ways you are right. Brexit is only going to give May a couple of years and that's not enough time to make the Tory party look good but the reality is, this is all about back room number crunching.

What has that to do with the fact you misinterpreted Joeys post on the outcome of the last GE?...
