Sadly, I think the Tories will walk it :-(

Although polls need to be taken with a large pinch of salt, all put the Tories a long way ahead.

Miliband vs Cameron 2015 - Tories beat Labour by 6% and end up with 330 seat majority

Corbyn vs May 2017 - Tories beat labour by 3% and end up with 317 seats needing DUP help.

I have seen polls with the Tories 15-20 points up. Even 6 points ahead and we would be looking at 300 ish seats.

There is an even worse outcome though. Boris is short of a majority by fewer seats than the Brexit party win...
