Three horse race

The end is near for the Tories , omg thank god that the doors of hell will be closed soon!!
So who will win ? Could be a hung parliament or will voters surprise you all and decide for liberals wouldn’t that be a game changer
I suppose we need to wait and see
But all I do know is that common sense will prevail and streets will celebrate Yes we know the road head is not too be easy but to eradicate the Tories well would not that be one historic moment

Thanks heavens for speed adjustment !

Just subscribed and like what I’ve heard so far. Have to adjust speed to 1.25x when RP speaking at length, and back to normal again for other presenters.
