Any chance at all that Labour could win? What are the odds at the bookies?

Re: General Election UK, June 8th...
Very little chance of not returning a Tory government, even with the Tories natural rivals the Lib Dems opposing Brexit - if Labour opposed Brexit then things would be far more uncertain for the Conservatives. What May is hoping for is to increase her slim majority at Westminster so that she's not being held hostage to the hard-Brexit right-wing of her own party. In that she's been very canny: those hard-Brexiteers will now have to go out into their constituencies and actively promote her political agenda above their own. Like the Brexit referendum itself this is all about micro-managing the bubbling internecine conflict within the Conservative party - all May's rhetoric about strong leadership and national unity has to been viewed in that light.

Seriously, May has done this move because labour is at lowest ebb and she's sure it will give her a full term to negociate Brexit and adjust to the changes.

Re: General Election UK, June 8th...
Surprisingly good. Currently the odds range from seven to ten for one for a Labour win, while the range for a Conservative win is one for ten to 14.

What are the odds for Corbyn being criticised for his jumper choice during the campaign?

Well we all know who the Blairites are going to be voting for. Imagine being that much of a political elite that you would vote for your main rival.
