Iain Dale: Gulp – here’s my prediction for the election result

I’ve been nervous after last time – but here goes. Plus: Farage is having a dreadful campaign. And why election night TV will never be the same again.

The campaign, week four. Johnson pushes upwards but so does Corbyn.

The move back to two party politics of 2017 seems to be repeating itself this time round.

Eamonn Ives: Yesterday’s TV environment debate. No-one told the truth – that capitalism and climate concern are compatible

It felt very much as though climate change was playing second fiddle to other overarching intentions which the candidates were keen to trot out.

David Gauke: Labour struggling. The LibDems not cutting through. The Tories winning by default. My take in this unusual election for me.

We are on course for a WTO Brexit. Given the opinion polls, the media’s attention would be best focused on the implications of such an outcome for the country.

WATCH: Swinson – “I’m not doing a deal, Andrew”

The LibDem leader tells Andrew Marr she will not strike a Brexit deal with Johnson. “I’m voting for the things that I’m standing up for,” she says.

Swinson’s ‘bicep-kissing’ strategy does not appear to be working

The Lib Dem leader’s approach has a logic to it, but it is risky. But instead of delivering a surge, her numbers are on the slide.

David Gauke: A traditional southern Conservative supporter ponders how best to vote

Economic competence has been the cornerstone of the Conservative appeal. Remove that cornerstone and the entire structure becomes fragile.

James Cleverly: As this election launches, it’s time for us to pull together – and deliver for Britain

Voters have a clear choice: vote Conservative or vote for further indecision, confusion and delay.

WATCH: “I never thought that I would stand here and say that I’m a candidate to be PM,” says Lib Dem leader

Jo Swinson launches her party’s General Election campaign and insists “this is a not a normal election….people can choose a Liberal Democrat government.”

WATCH: Swinson says that her party’s new bill sets a date for the next election – and takes No Deal off table

The Lib Dem bill supported by the SNP provides for an election on 9 December and ‘removes the threat’ of No Deal’, explains Jo Swinson.

WATCH: The Labour leader “is not fit to be Prime Minister,” says Swinson

“The country deserves a better choice for Downing Street than either him or Boris Johnson,” she says.

Sarah Ingham: The proper place to call the government to account is not the courts, but the ballot box

MPs should be ever-ready to assert the rights of Parliament over the Executive. But they should not be outsourcing the voters’ job to judges.

Lord Ashcroft: What my new poll of 8000 voters tells us about the country, the parties – and Brexit

It sets the scene as the Conservative Conference opens by showing what the voters themselves make of the unfolding drama.

Iain Dale: Beyond Westminster, Johnson’s stock with the public remains high

Plus: The far left really has captured Labour’s conference; too many Conservatives misunderstand the Supreme Court; and my conference agenda.

Contempt for the Labour leader is no substitute for the hard work of showing why his policies are wrong

Corbyn has been wily enough not to plunge into the Brexit trap set for him by Johnson.
