That there is likely to be a General Election and Corbyn will win.
Sounds more like hope (spin working overtime) than reality. Rather like Sturgeon's approach the noise won't stop until the right result is achieved. Though in her case appears to have backfired somewhat. May will survive for the duration of the Brexit talks.0 -

They were told that government policy has not changed and that the UK will have control of trade policy. i.e. No wavering, we are leaving the single market and customs union. Steve Baker, who leads the European Research Group caucus of around 80 Leave-supporting MPs, says it was a “hugely encouraging and constructive meeting”.
