150,000 people have registered to vote since Monday, with the majority

will be somewhat more considerably left-leaning and remain-leaning than
even in GE2017, particularly so when you factor in the €śnatural wastage€ť
of older right/leave voters. Change is coming.
It always does, but its unlikely to see that fool Corbyn as PM.
"The total number of UK parliamentary electors increased by just over 1
million (2.3%) between December 2015 and December 2016, this partly
reflects high levels of public engagement with the EU referendum."

But the polls show that Corbyn hasnt got a hope in hell of being PM
currently.
The polls also said in 2016 that the vote would be to remain in the EU.
It could be that when some see the polls argree with their choice, then those think well I don't need to vote then. I believe this is more likely to be student mentality as I see this with students quite often regarding course work.
Studetns want the lap open longer hours so we opened at 8am instead of 9am while most turn up after lunch and wonder why we aren't willing to work until 6pm or even midnight, as some computer labs are open until 2am like the local take-aways.
