Probably a Con majority if by "better" you mean more centrist.
On the other hand, if the Labour PLP had got behind the choice of their membership rather than doing their best to undermine him from the start and knowingly damaging the party in the process.....0 -

No I don't agree. The con campaign was very flawed. Instead of Brexit and b****y foxhunting they should have gone for 'where's the money coming from?'0 -

Yeah because we didn't hear the Maybot endlessly repeat 'Magic Money Tree' and similarly meaningless platitudes.“The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie – deliberate, contrived, and dishonest – but the myth, persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic.
Belief in myths allows the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought.”

The only weakness in the Tory campaign was to show what their real attitudes are - nasty, spiteful, uncaring, and putting their interests ahead of the people they're governing.
Which, curiously, was the strength of the Labour campaign under Corbyn. Had he not had 24 points to catch up at the start that would have shone through even more.0 -
