General Election 2017

[Tarpon]

Anyone lump on Tory majority @ 5/6 earlier?

 

[Bry Nylon]

Not on ITV

WHY would anyone be watching on ITV? Who's hosting - Ant n Dec?

 

[Is it PotG?]

These Brexit negs are going to be a right hoot now.

 

[Bodian]

Tory majority still odds on then

Have a look at YouGov's last predictions. https://yougov.co.uk/uk-general-election-2017/

Bang on the money for the two declarations so far.

Is anyone feeling strong and stable ?

Priti Patel didn't get the memo that polls closed at 10pm......still campaigning.

Priti Patel is a robot that never says anything.

The odd reality is that May is probably personally more pro Europe than Corbyn. What I find fascinating about the Tories is how they manage to completely **** themselves.

There was an opportunity to bring the country together but it didn't. It focussed on it's core vote arrogantly thinking that Labour were too much of a car crash to matter.

That in itself simply passed the baton to Labour.

I suspect deep down May is a good person with some great ideas. Unfortunately she isn't leader material and has allowed the adivisors to take over.

Good post.

May lifelong pro European. Corbyn lifelong speptic of the supremacy of business and globalisation in the EU, only liking its employment directives.

The Tory vote probably hasn't collapsed from the 44% pre election poll figures (I have the data in front of me). But Corbyn has grabbed back the bulk of the UKIP vote, wiped out the LibDems and Greens, and in marginals the other parties have ceded to Labour to get the Tories out. It looks like.

A poisoned chalice to whoever is unlucky enough to be in government. The results of EU untangling will be blamed on the next government for some time to come.

Why is she still going on like a politician - we've all voted, you can be normal now, chill out, have a giggle.

A bit weak and wobbly, thanks for asking tho

There's a theory in some quarters that May was always pro-Brexit but supported Remain at the referendum because she assumed it would succeed and wanted to keep on the right side of Cameron. Now she can show her true Leave colours.

A monsoon has knocked out my satellite signal. Only Priti Patel whining though.

 

[atomised]

Another that didn't fit with the exit polls

 

[JC Footy Genius]

Priti Patel and Mishal Husain a ménage à trois dreams are made of ..

Sunderland central 2.3% swing to tory. This is bizarre.

Exit Polls could well be wrong here?

 

[Ernest]

UKIP vote has disappeared

 

[Bry Nylon]

Wow - big shock Sunderland Central in the context of the Exit poll.

I've already said, earlier in the thread, it's not a good idea to have a w*nk if you want to stay awake.

 

[Bodian]

Sunderland Central - almost exactly as YouGov predict again! In fact Labour doing slightly better in all three.
