As usual, I'll be voting Labour. Don't have much hope they'll win though, seeing as the Tories somehow have repeatedly won over the past few years.

Sadly, Labour have cost themselves with all the in-fighting and backstabbing. Instead of getting behind Corbyn while he's leader they're now seen as weak and divided.
As for a choice between May and Corbyn, it's pretty simple. Similar to Trump vs Hillary.
Is Corbyn the perfect choice? Probably not. Was Hillary? Probably not. But they are still the much much lesser of two evils.
Hopefully Corbyn can pull off one hell of an upset.

It's more like Sanders v Trump, as it should have been.

The Tories will win because the British public will fall for all their pathetic lies and spin, just like they did in 2015. Their 2015 campaign, mainly consisted of Cameron spinning out the same lines about Labour leaving no money, how Miliband was going to form a dangerous coalition with the SNP - not to mention attacking Miliband's character. Fast forward two years, and you've now got May and her stooges repeating the same line, every chance they get, about how Corbyn is "dangerous" and is going to form a "coalition of chaos" with the SNP, the Liberal Democrats and perhaps the Green's, as well as taking shots at the man himself. What's more pathetic, is that people don't even seem to realise May is not to be trusted after she said she wouldn't call an election... but even more so on the basis of calling said election. She's called this election under the myth that being an elected PM, with a big majority will strengthen her hand in the Brexit negotiations - yet another line she keeps spinning out at every opportunity. In reality, elected or not, large majority or not, it won't make a damn bit of difference to the Europeans - and they've said as much. The real reason she's calling this election, is simply to try and crush Labour and give herself and her stooges free reign to run roughshod over the country, unopposed - as well as steer us towards her "hard Brexit", which is Tory code for imposing more austerity measures... and if the polls are to be believed, the British people are playing right into her hands. She's also too chicken-sh*t to debate with Corbyn on TV, so what makes people think she'll be any good at the negotiating table? May was a failure as Home Secretary, so why she would be any better as PM? Also, she legit looks like a witch.
As for Labour, people are under the illusion they're in this mess because of Jeremy Corbyn... when the real reason they're in disarray - and could be on the end of a crushing defeat - is because of spoilt brat (mainly Blairite) MP's, who can't let go of the past, throwing tantrums and launching pathetic coups, just because they didn't get the leader they wanted. They should be ashamed of themselves.

The split party theme is overplayed by the media I think, Corbyn has the backing of the vast majority of the half a million members, including myself. Yes, there are Blairites that think we should be just left of centre but in the words of Neil Kinnock "If you stay in the middle of the road... you get run down". This Labour manifesto is even better than I hoped.
The Tories are all up in arms about it saying "Labour will need to borrow £250bn over the next 10 years!" well, over the past 7 years the Tories have borrowed around £700bn themselves while at the same time cutting taxes for the well off and slashing services for the rest of us. Under the Tories the national debt now stands at well over £1.3tr. The fact is, Labour have always borrowed less money than the Tories and have actually paid down more of the national debt than the Tories ever have. Trust the Tories with the economy? Not on your life.

She's laughably trying to promote the Tories as the party for the working classes... by overseeing the fall in wages, dangerous underfunding of the NHS, insisting on this hard Brexit that will cause untold damage to the economy, meaning job losses, overseeing the massive rise in child poverty, massive rise in foodbank use, rise in in-work 'poverty', removal of trade union powers, homelessness, lowest number of council houses being built.
Yet there are a lot of people that will vote for her anyway...

Couldn't agree with you more, and with May saying that they want to "regulate the internet" and "aim to eliminate the deficit by 2025" (so much for 7 years of austerity, that's clearly worked...) with a Tory win very likely, I've got a feeling people are going to be doing a hell of a lot of drinking over the next 5 years.

I just don't get how people can be so stupid to vote for the Tories, it really is a case of Turkeys voting for Christmas.
