    It's not as pronounced at the UK-wide online sources I use to gauge sentiment but there has been a similar let's punish Labour attitude.
    I have heard the same from traditional Labour voters they either say, hate Corbyn, cant vote Labour , wont be voting at all , they have let us down, all very negative and I'm surrounded by Labour voters in my life and work , or shall we re name them ex Labour voters .

    In Wales I would not be shocked if a Brexit MP or two gets in, Liberals see gain seats , and even some Tories having better results than expected.

    The north east of England is going to be a bad day for Labour.

    They are finished in Scotland.

    However they still have the the metropolitan cities I guess where threr is a high ethic and muselin voters like the Peterborough voters . ( i guess anti semitsim doesnt hurt them so in areas those )

    Ive been shouted down on this board for suggesting Corbyn or his type of politics is not good for Labour, lets see what the 12th brings instead of launching into the new nasty left tirade and calling moderate socialist Tories.

    I happened to drive through the Asian area of Peterborough this afternoon LOM , and I saw my first labour poster this time, although there was only one of them and in the past there'd have been lots.

    In Cardiff North which has always been a marginal .


    The Tories are not trying not a single leaflet ,we have seen some Liberals ones 3 Labour ones

    The welsh Labour MP Anna McMorrin is a real good lady .

    In the last election Mr Johnson and Mr Corbyn appeared in the constituency and the battleground was much more aggressive , I wonder if the issue is being decided by the fact it was 60 % remain and 39% leave ?

    The polls suggest many labour strongholds in Wales are going to go Tory

    Even in the valleys

    Its very worrying

    Imagine torfaen in Gwent having a Tory mp ?

    It won't be long before those people in such areas will be cursing themselves for voting Tory as the Westminster Eton lot cut off the valleys for good and European money is no longer forthcoming

    Too late to complain then though

    What really started the rot for labour was Scotland and now its going to spread to Wales

    It beggars belief how working class welsh people can vote Tory , mind you thatcher bribed them with the right to buy council houses and now the Tories have bribed them with brexit

    How have the valleys been affected by immigration ? The valleys were built on immigration from Ireland and the west of England

    The only immigrants of latter type in the valleys are kebab shop owners , Indian doctors and the odd taxi driver

    There are not areas of the valleys " swamped" by immigrants and the valleys get massive aid from Europe so what on earth did these areas vote to leave the EU and now appear to be turning blue ?

    Unbelievable
