Libdems are a fraud & will from less than 15 seats to less 10 next election. The party has no future & is dying. No agenda & was only an anti-Brexit party. Now they are not ready to stop a No Deal Brexit & support Corbyn when Greens Plaid Cymru SNP are all supporting & some Tory rebels are ready to talk. These guys slept with Cameron for 5 years & implemented massive austerity & tax cuts & cuts to services including for disabled people.

Corbyn played a master stroke & the LibDems are getting brutally exposed.

Why are people acting like the Lib-Dems matter? They had like 15 seats & will get less than 20 seats again, maybe even less than 15. They will never be able to dictate who will be the Labour leader. If they don't support a Corbyn led Lab-SNP-Green alliance they will essentially cause another GE (3 times in 3 years) & there will be 2 flanks - Lab-SNP-GREEN vs Tory/DUP.

All the smaller parties, SNP, GREEN are much more progressive & left wing than Labour/Corbyn. The Labour ordinary members are fully behind Corbyn. LibDems are essentially the B Team of Tories. They propped up Cameron & supported his tax cuts & welfare cuts & austerity agenda.

More the GE Campaign takes place, more the Lib-Dems will fall. They have got no future. Look @ how their voters (80%+) would prefer a Corbyn led Government than No Deal brexit & how their power hungry leaders like Swinson would like to stop it. Lib-Dem voters are quite liberal & not idealogically far from Labour. They have much MUCH more in common with Labour than the Tories.

The LibDems and SNP have finally shown their true colors, it seems. They don't give a sh*t about stopping BoJo's hard-Brexit deal, or even about taking No Deal off the table. They'll happily throw all that under the bus and let put a hard-right Tory government in power if that allows them to win a few seats.

What a shameful, disgusting bunch of third-rate hacks. If Remainers really want to put their trust in them, they deserve everything that's coming to them.
No. They actually have principles, and are fighting to ensure the UK never leaves the EU. The real hacks are Labour, who refuse to take a definative position and fight hard to stop the greatest threat to the UK in decades.
Hey guys? Neither of you want to see a Conservative majority (granted, the Lib Dems don’t want to see a Labour majority either).

Is there a chance of Labour-SNP-LD somehow getting a majority? And if so, would the SNP ever consider joining a government? I can’t imagine the Lib Dems want to govern with the Conservatives for a long time yet, so I am curious about what kind of coalition could possibly happen.

SNP even in last election wanted to join a Corbyn Government & openly said they wanted to stop the Tories & would want to be part of a progressive alternative. SNP & GREENs both are very progressive & more liberal than Labour. Their ideology on many economic issues is more similar to Corbyn than the Blair "New Labour" model which they detest. I can easily see a Corbyn led Lab-SNP-GREEN combination as they are natural ideological allies but Lib-Dems have no ideology & are essentially now a home for Conservative & Labour Rebel Hard Remainers. They sided with Tories in government for 5 years & imposed tax cuts & austerity & welfare cuts & will do it again given the chance.

I can see Tories losing another 20-30 seats.
