General Election 2017

[Grombleton]

Your a prick, you have a problem with the truth?

Prove it.

You utter clown.
Dont feel ive lost at all, and i dont do outrage, it doesnt exist.

Tories have the most seats, labour lose again and a distant second, second referendumers blown out of the political water and leaving The Eu is safe and secure.
Happy days.

Same old guff from you. Only a fool like you could see victory in this. And make no mistake, you are a fool.

We are screwed in Brexit under the tories. I love our left bubble in a sea of blue.

Do we have the Peoples' Republic of Brighton map yet? I can't believe one wasn't prepared in advance.

 

[The Clamp]

Your the one wholikes serving up insults without even a hint of reason why, it really doesn't get any sadder than that. BTW, that last sentence contained and insult and reason.

I've read that post several times and I cannot make any sense of it. Sorry.

There's graffiti on the seafront 'Brighton is European'

What I suspect will happen is that the DUP will vote with the Cons, but make them water down some of their policies.

The DUP aren't watered down Tories, the other way if anything!

The reason any deal with the DUP is slightly unpalatable, is the Tories don't have an outright majority because of the voting to the left. Doing a deal with a party further to the right is therefore not a coalition of strength in that it doesn't lean in the direction of the rest of the house.

In 2010, a coalition with the Libs, was a move to the left for the Tories, so that made democratic sense.

So many MPs saying May should carry on. They're getting ready to boot her out then.

I struggle to see any other way out of this pickle right now though. What do you think?

Looking at it the morning after it's a mess tbh. Have to blame May's manifesto tbh as it's created a disaster. Made them lose a number of marginal seats in my opinion. Some bad ideas in there which cost to many votes and played into labour hands to allow them to say all the stuff they were giving away. (Yet to e convinced they could actually deliver half of it as there is clearly a massive gap in where the money is from)
only realistic way forward with those results would be Conservatives with DUP assisting them. But on predicted results that leaves an overall majority of 3.
Although Labour has made gains there is no realistic way of getting a majority in there. He would need basically all other parties to have a tiny majority as well but that's unlikely to happen.
Leaves us in a worse mess than when we started. 11 days till Brexit discussions start god help us all.

The really remarkable result is in Canterbury. Labour overturned a 10K majority to take the seat, which has been Tory for over 100 years.

You sound like the UKIP David Brent

 

[narly101]

Any tory voter who claims a victory today is completely delusional. May could have been Prime Minister comfortably until 2020 without this general election. Now she finds herself with a minority government - daft bint!

You will soon see, as will your children and theirs, Brexit is no victory. If it happens. I wouldn't rule anything out at this stage in the game.

Viva la EU!!

I agree, but it's hardly a victory for Labour, or any party to be honest.

Democratic sense is to have a coalition (or at least agreement) with over half of the seats. I understand your point about the Tories joining the Lib Dems to the left, but that doesn't look like an option this time.

Fast forward 9 days and the scene in Brussels:
Mrs May "Shall we get started then?"
Herr Junker "Oh, we were expecting someone else. Are you sure you'll be here for the duration?"

Whoever you voted for, this is a rubbish day for us the minions on the eve of Brexit talks.
