Yougov Ideal Parliament poll

[wutang]

YouGov asks the public how they many seats they would assign each of the parties in the Commons if they could choose

https://yougov.co.uk/news/2017/08/11/wh ... mons-look/

Overall parliament would look like this:

Lab - 223
Con - 215
LD - 56
Green - 33
UKIP - 29
SNP - 23
PC - 16
BNP - 8

The Labour and Tory voters had predictable results (majorities for their favourite parties),

The Lib Dem one

Lib Dem voters do not, on the whole, want to see the Liberal Democrats as the largest party in the Commons. The average number of seats Lib Dem voters want their party to have is 159 – quite far behind the average 201 seats they would give to Labour and only marginally ahead of the average 150 they would assign to the Conservatives.

We know our limitations, the party is not ready for overall government.

The first Labour government, like the second, like the 2010 coalition, and no doubt others I can't recall had little or no government/ministerial experience. The LibDems are no less equipped for government than they were.

In my opinion the party needs a little bit of time out. We got raped in 2015 because of what we know now was for no reason (student loans were mitigated as a result of the LD influence, it was going to pass with or without us).

Frankly, I'm happy to sit back and watch the other two fuck up brexit.

It may need more time to build popularity - but if/when it wins, it's ready.

Labour won't get blamed for Brexit so don't hold your breath - at best (from your perspective) Corbyn may attract some fall out but the right of party will soon consign that to history when they retake power,

There's already talk of a new centrist party but what is the point? Extremist right wing parties like UKIP took decades to be recognised politically and only gained a seat because of a defection that helped to kill the movement.

LibDems are anti Brexit and pro Europe and are an established party. I can't see that changing.

We've been down that road before with Shirley, Roy and David - I agree with you, no point.
