[Politics] The NSC 'up all night' election night *** OFFICIAL MATCH THREAD ***

[KZNSeagull]

Hmm, not convinced by the Ch4 coverage so far... seems quite slapstick / politics for dummies

Well they cannot say anything important until 10pm. Don't really know why they started so early

I was quite enthused to see Rory Stewart and Alistair Campbell on C4, as I rather like their podcast, and then I saw Widdecombe and Dorries appear.

It's like hearing Ally McCoist on co-comms and then realising Matterface is the commentator and Danny Murphy is doing the half time analysis.

Need a bit of comedy and light relief amongst all the serious talk.

The brexit poll is 2016 called leave at 10 pm no one could quite believe it Paddy Ashdown went into a meltdown rubbishing it, turned out true

 

[Chicken Run]

I’ve just realised i had to unignore the Op to see this thread

 

[armchairclubber]

Anyone slightly nervous/excited?

Interesting that the Labour vote seems to have dipped dramatically over the last few days. Tactical voting? Starmer's comments about not rejoining the EU? Are the Tories going to do worse/better than expected? Could the Lib Dems form the official opposition? Reform have put the cat amongst the proverbial pigeons and with their bot-enabled social media campaign I wouldn't be surprised if they do a lot better than predicted.

Overall, apart from the obvious large Labour majority, there's quite a lot still up in the air.

If so, could there be any other possible reason?

 

[KZNSeagull]

You would .

Not even with yours.

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

How many Reform MP’s?

1 Farage will win

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Who has Professor Sir John Curtice tonight?

For dinner? Canapes & cocktails?

 

[South Stand Bonfire]

Here we go!

 

[Hugo Rune]

Almost there……….

 

[jcdenton08]

Getting the chuckle sisters on at the last minute is pure genius

 

[Si Gull]

2 minutes to Exit poll

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

I hope Farage wins as at least he makes dullard politics more interesting

 

[Weststander]

Here we go ……

PM Starmer.

 

[Bob!]

Phew!

 

[KZNSeagull]

What a shock

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Dorries looks decidedly unhinged!

Perhaps on her 2nd bottle of Vodka?

She absolutely hates Sunak and blames him for dethroning the who man she dreams of every night.

I have your bingo card ready for Blyth and Sunderland....

The Liz Truss thread was about my own constituency MP, and my personal involvement in the campaign in my constituency, it’s not a general thread about the election so it seems harsh to lock it and prevent me posting feedback on it?
