The election to the Bundestag in the year 2019: 10 things you need to know about the campaign

Jan 28,2022 7:03 pm

We had the most important messages hammered Home , the odd slip-up and row over TV debates.

But what have we learned since Boris Johnson has called an early election?

1) It is already a presidential-style campaignWe do not have a presidential electoral system in the UK, But you wouldn't know it from the campaigns of the two major parties.

The Choice is said to have between Boris Johnson and Jeremy Corbyn , the Conservatives and Labour, in the whole - with both politicians of the country to travel up and down in order to appeal to the voters.

We have hardly seen some of The Front bench seat - Home -Secretary Priti Patel -or Business-Secretary, Andrea Leadsom on the main Campaign events, for Example - and to work on the page, which we have not the shadow of Brexit see Secretary Keir Starmer or shadow foreign Minister Emily Thornberry is.

But while they said a sit-down interview with Bbc Breakfast , Mr Corbyn, it was "the presidential election".

He was responding to A Question whether he is an obstacle in front of the door, amid reports That some of the candidates, the voters do not want to support him, personally.

Our political editor Laura Kuenssberg says the voters she has met on The Campaign are fixed on the two Central figures of Boris Johnson and Jeremy Corbyn , they are so well-known.

says you. both bands of "True Believers ", But The Men who sought to be Prime Minister with a very serious doubt by some of The Public shall be liable

2) the parties have upped their digital game, But it's not more misinformation and "fake-news" The battle field is just in front of the door, and the election Campaign - as we know it online.

On Facebook, At one point earlier this month, the Facebook Ad-library showed That around 2,500 ads, paid for by the Conservative Party were there live, compared with 3,000 for the Liberal Democrats , But only 250 for the work.

And not, This Time , there were also party-groups.

But there was some criticism of the way platforms were used.

The Conservatives have been criticised for posting an edited video of Labour's Keir Starmer on Social Media and the Tory press Office - as a "factcheckUK" while the Itv -debate between Mr Johnson and Mr Corbyn.

And was That a Conservative trade could have a deal with the United States after the discharge, costing the NHS up to £500m in the week, by driving The Price of drugs.

Now, a Campaign group calls for the fact-checking of political advertising to a statutory requirement.

But the controversy over social-media-Campaign posts may have helped to spread political messages,

In recent days, we have seen false information about the case of the four-year-old boy, Jack, who was on The Floor , Leeds General Infirmary after he was admitted to hospital with suspected pneumonia.

The Hospital apologized and despite a statement from The Hospital 's chief medical officer,

Our Reality Check team is busy fact-checking the claims, during the course of this Campaign ,

3) lines on a TV interview and have been. Blocks of iceBoris Johnson faced allegations That he was "Running Scared " of control after the missed participation in a sit-down-BBC interview with Andrew Neil - Something That led presenter to issue a direct challenge to the PM.

Mr Johnson will not face Neil - as well as The Other main party leaders - But the Tory party leader says, he has two head-to-head debates and "118 sit-down interviews with journalists" during The Campaign .

And Channel 4 , "empty chaired" the Tories and the Brexit Party with ice sculptures during the Climate Change debate. To investigate the Tories Ofcom about the impartiality, But the regulator decided. You came to the conclusion That the Conservative point of view had been given due weight.

4) Will fall to Labour's 'red wall' about Brexit ? In Hartlepool, a Leave-voting area, could be the cause of the long-held loyalties to work political earthquake? We know That the Conservatives and The Party Escape targeting work Left to voters - while the Labour Party , the election Campaign was hard to keep them on the page.

During The Campaign , both the main party leaders travelled to these areas - in North-East Wales, The Midlands and the North of England, purporting to be from the form of Labour's "red wall" - to their places.

Polling expert, Sir John Curtice says That , if Mr Johnson is to win an absolute majority, he is likely to win a significant number of marginal seats from labour.

Labour ' s 50 most marginal seats, 39, agreed to Leave in 2016, the referendum, and-16, More Than 60% voted for Brexit .

5) most Important messages hammered Home remember were "strong and stable" out of the 2017 Campaign ?

Now, That is long gone, and for the Conservatives has been replaced with "get Brexit done" to take with Mr Johnson promising, the UK from the EU up to 31. January.

The Party , The Campaign has it all, about what was The Choice , called exit in the First Place - British EU.

For the work you have hammered That if the Conservatives come to power, the NHS is in danger, as "on the table" in any post-Brexit trade-will pass your Message to the NHS That negotiations with the US, Something denied to the Tories.

The Liberal Democrats , on The Other hand, want to "Stop a Leak. Build a better future", and the SNP says it is a "more for Scotland ". The Party of the "stop Brexit " on the side of his battle bus.

The SNP has said for a long time for a second Scottish referendum, and is confident That the work would support another vote if The Party was in a minority government situation.

6) the politicians are always in danger of derailing their Campaign at The Last minuteIn what has seen to be a stable Campaign , The Last few days have proved rocky, both for the Conservatives and Labour.

Boris Johnson of a sick four-year-old boy who had to sleep on The Floor , the Leeds hospital.

An Itv reporter is trying to show Mr. Johnson the picture on his cell phone, But he refused, before The Device and put it in his pocket.

Mr Johnson, Finally saw the image, and then apologized to The Family .

apologized to the Labour's Jonathan Ashworth for his party, after he criticized, Jeremy Corbyn , in a secret recording of his Tory activist, friend.

In a recording leaked to listen to Mr Ashworth is not says, he believe, would be the work of winning the election.

Mr Ashworth has insisted That he was "joshing around" in The Conversation , while Mr Corbyn claimed That the story was "irrelevant".

7) this Was the "Climate Change election"? In these elections, we have heard A Number of "green" promises and polling at the beginning of The Campaign , That The Environment as among the voters of the " top-priorities.

Greens co-leader Sian Berry called it the "climate of choice" in the launch Campaign for the Green Party of England and Wales, said: "some things are bigger even than a British EU exit".

friends of the earth survey suggested, and the fight against Climate Change .

of Its election commitments, just the Greens and the Liberal Democrats beat the Conservatives far behind, according to the environmental Campaign group.

And Climate Change protesters in bee costumes before the extinction of the Rebellion, squeezing the Liberal Democrats " electric bus, as well as the Conservative bus.

Lib dem leader Jo Swinson defended her party's policy on Climate Change , to the protesters in bee costumes, of the not said the plans were "not ambitious enough".

8) surveys, trends, and tactical votingThe electoral Campaign was dominated by calls for tactical voting from both sides in the Brexit debate.

Prof Stephen Fisher, an electoral analyst at the University of Oxford, says: "In Leaving the Fans, the tactical vote is likely to come into play, in the constituencies in which the Brexit Party and the Conservatives are in the competition court, of a party in favour of another referendum. to Stay

"Tactical voting supporters is much more complicated, because it goes to more parties with different Brexit policy. "

He says, That relatively Small Changes in The Number of votes a candidate.

In terms of the trends That our political editor Laura Kuenssberg says That actually, not much has changed during this Campaign .

The Tories have to fight, by and large, for most of the time, with work to close The Gap , and the Lib-Dems not the kind of breakthrough That people thought they could do a few months ago.

And the SNP to remain look likely to be dominant in Scotland .

Can the SNP maintain their dominance in Scotland ? Polling expert John Curtice says That there had been two trends in the polls during The Campaign , But they have effectively negated each other.

The Conservative vote is up, But the work is coordination with the Brexit -The Party and the Liberal Democrats squeezed from both sides.

At the beginning of The Campaign , BBC's analysis of the Press Association figures found That 1.124 of 3,322 registered candidates were women.
