Why not relax, and converse into the night on the day’s events in PB NightHawks.

If you’re a lurker, why not delurk tonight.

The round up of recent events (click on the links below, and it will bring up the relevant link)

1. Most Tories now expect a party schism over Europe. After the ructions over the EU arrest warrant, the only question is whether the split can be postponed till after the 2015 election
2. Amid increased uncertainty, Labour remains the favourite. The Labour party could still win a majority in 2015.
3. Why Labour is going to pay the “British Nate Silver” almost as handsomely as Ukip did. General elections are now won far less by ideas than by algorithms
4. Polling shows support for Ed Miliband in target seats – but are they really targets?
5. David Lammy: Ed Miliband Won’t Win A Majority In 2015
6. Our duty is to tell the truth about the real Ed Miliband, not to undermine him
7. Labour’s Mili-madness is over. Now what?
8. Next May’s election may resemble that of October 1974
9. Antifrank puts the pieces of the jigsaw puzzle that is the constituency markets together.

12. Ipsos MORI’s poll for BBC News shows decreasing trust in government as it gets less local.
13. ‘Ruthless George’ Osborne can miss all his targets and still win. Voters are unconvinced by the Tory chancellor’s credibility. But they also doubt the alternatives
14. There are already calls for Juncker to resign. I hate to say ‘I told you so’… 
15. Do Your Sexual Fantasies Affect the Way You Vote? Possibly NSFW
16. Don’t believe in tribal politics? Take a look at how people respond to Downing Street’s cats
