That is a suggestion from medical staff, as mentioned above. And we aren't talking about generic "expenditure reductions" but a specific proposal. I don't normally use the "its a bit rich" card, but given that the Tories tried to scare voters witless before the 2010 GE with Labour's supposedly planned "death tax"...... I'm not doubting that it's a suggestion from medical staff- I'm trying to close down an irrelevant discussion on abortion.

How can it be irrelevant when it's totally off-topic and thus entirely compliant with Vote UK forum guidelines?

I have not changed my initial vote at the very start of the poll (2.5-5.0%) when I was in a minority of 2. We are now 15 and 3rd. The defence is shrinking and now 70 plays 55, but is still affirmative on a Hold by 15, which is about how the market sits and expectations sit. I still see this to be a firm Conservative Gain. Recently I have felt more assured of it.

And, more importantly, has anybody ever produced a pretty map showing the distribution of abortions aboard trains, and their relation to both current and previous electoral boundaries?

If Labour lose Copeland it will be because not everyone is pregnant. Terrific summary of the campaign there.

How likely is it that the count will be delayed until the next morning/afternoon with the weather forecast as it is?

Anyone know what time the results may come in, might save me watching any more of the Paisly tangerine than I have to. We're all stuck with the Paisley Tangerine, the Paisley tangerine, the paisley tangerine... to the tune of...

A random bit of my brain has randomly told me to expect a Labour majority of 863 votes. No particular reason.
