According to a poll out last night, the Tories are making more gains over the Labour Party and the Liberal Democrats.

In bad news for both Jeremy Corbyn and Jo Swinson, the latest Opinium poll for the Observer on Westminster voting intentions has the Conservative Party taking a fifteen point lead over Labour.
Boris Johnson will be smiling.
As you can see from the graphic, based on the last poll, the Tories have gained two points and are now well out in the lead on 38%, while Labour has slipped back a point to now lie on 23%.
The Lib Dems have also slipped back, but by a whopping 5 percent to now sit on 15%. While the Brexit Party has managed to regain one percent in lost ground to 12% - but I'm sure Nigel Farage will not be content with that.
The Greens have doubled their share and now sit on 4%.
And while Boris continues to drive towards Brexit, the Remainers and opposition parties still can't get their stuff in the same sock.
And to make that matter worse for them, Antonella Guerrera of la Repubblica, reports that the Labour shadow chancellor, John McDonnell, told him that the Labour Party will "... NEVER accept an interim government without Jeremy Corbyn as PM."
Not even if the only way to stop a no deal was to choose someone else, with McDonnell saying:
"No, 'cause it wouldn’t work and it won’t have the support of Labour MPs."
And McDonnell also said that, if those MPs did not get behind Corbyn, it will be them that the public will blame for a no deal Brexit!
So, it seems that nothing can dent the Boris Johnson surge at the moment and the opposition parties will therefore, in my view, still keep shying away from voting for a General Election - and remember that it would take 434 of them to actively vote for an election under the Fixed Term Parliament Act!
But while they play their games, it is the legal machinations that have been going on in the Supreme Court in London and the Court of Sessions in Edinburgh that have given the EU the further excuse to stop all Brexit talks this weekend and tell Boris to go back to Brussels with something new by Monday.
But for his part, Boris Johnson has written in a couple of newspapers today and he starts his piece in the Sun with the words:
"After decades of campaigning, three years of arguments and seemingly endless months of pointless delay, it is now just 25 days until the UK’s membership of the EU ends.
"We will be packing our bags and walking out on October 31."
"The only question is whether Brussels cheerily waves us off with a mutually agreeable deal, or whether we will be forced to head off on our own."
And this will have the Remainers and their lawyers seething and wondering what ace card Boris has up his sleeve that they could have possibly missed.
Now, that Remainer former Tory Prime Minister David Cameron has surfaced again.
Cue Brexiteer boos and hisses.
But this time he's supporting Boris Johnson in his efforts to get a deal, reports Sky News.
And that should get the alarm bells ringing in the heads of every Brexiteer in the country.
Speaking at the Cheltenham Literature Festival, Cameron said there is a 'good chance' that Boris would get a new Brexit deal with the EU and that he 'completely supports' the PM's efforts to get one.
"It is difficult but I think it is far better than a no-deal outcome," he said, "which I don't think is a good outcome and not something I would recommend."
And he went on to say:
"We've had three years where we have not been able to resolve it and if you can't resolve it with a deal, which is the right answer, there are only really three answers.
"You can have a deal; you can have a general election and try and change the arithmetic in the House of Commons; or you can have a second referendum and take it back to the people."
I, like most Brexiteers I think, would beg to differ. We just need to leave the EU in 25 days time with a clean break Brexit.
And if Cameron is supporting this deal, then I think we should give it a very wide berth indeed.
