Stv has done a poll but that's partly because the Scottish polls were more on the money. But again if tact voting comes into play snp could lose 10, and you mystic meg that. The South West polls from2015 were also correct in stating lib dem losses.
The big issue with the polls is predicting how many young people turn out. Some polls are assuming that despite stating that they will, many young voters won't actually bother to vote.
That is the main reason for the discrepancy between they polls and being such an unknown quantity is probably a big factor in why broadcasters aren't interested in polls this time.
I see what they are doing with the different colour lighting, but surprised they went with a different order than from the Vote 2019 straps, I'd have thought they'd have gone with the same?
Glad they've not gone for all out white too, the little bits of colour make all the difference.
The election set is a pleasant surprise. They haven't done anything on that scale in a very long time, and I wasn't expecting much this year, with so little time to prepare.
Yes, the desk on the right of that photo will be home to Lewis Goodall (context specialist) and Ed Conway (numbers specialist), giving Ed the ability to jump up when necessary and hop over to the big screen.
The touchscreen to the left of the desk will relay social media updates, fronted by Jayne Secker, and the rows of desks behind Adam will be home to our psephologist, Prof Michael Thrasher, and the results team (including me).
We hope the simple but visually-compelling set-up will rival and excel all the VR whizz-bangery and Jeremy Vine-ness on other channels.
