Opinion polls anticipate British election landslide for Theresa May

Britain is going to snap polls on Thursday. Polls show Prime Minister Theresa May’s right-of-center government has an apparently secure majority in the British Parliament.

Twenty-five points ahead in the opinion polls, May said giving her an increased Parliamentary majority would strengthen Britain’s Brexit negotiating position.

“I choose to believe in Britain and that our best days lie ahead. And I do so because I'm confident that we have the vision and the plan to use this moment to build a better Britain,” said May.

For May, it appears an electoral walk in the park and pollsters anticipate a landslide. The party of the left-leaning Labour opposition leader Jeremy Corbyn is in disarray.

May, by contrast, is her party’s big selling point, her message repeated mantra-like at every stop.

However, one of Britain’s leading polling companies says the difference now lies within the margin of error.

“It could get very messy and at a time when Theresa May and everyone else feels that we need a strong position if we’re going to negotiate with Europe. Things could get very difficult very quickly,” said Joe Twyman from opinion pollsters YouGov.
