Twat. Let's hope those who claim the scrutiny he will face in parliament will be his ruin.

He'll probably only turn up to claim his expenses / pay - not to face scrutiny.

It’s one gain.

100% increase.

Has anywhere given a projected %age share of the vote per party yet?

Sir John just said the vote split is not as per the seat split. I think i saw the labour figures up by about 20ish % in most regions, Lib Dem no real difference, not seen Tory. Obviously Reform has no benchmark as such

....where Andy Townsend is just settling in for the night?

As long as it's not Danny Murphy
"Yeah, Labour have won this seat, definitely, nailed on, 100%"
"The Tory has won"
"Yeah, I thought he would"

 

[Eeyore]

The exit poll for Kemptown suggests that Larry the Cat only got 1 vote. I never seem to back the winner.

 

[Weststander]

It looks like Greens have got Brighton Pavilion and Bristol central

Hopefully Siân Berry can build a large support for next time, taking away the angst.

Nationally crushed by FPTP, but at least it prevented a sizable rump of Reform racists in the Commons.

CH4 doing it now. They reckon Labour have only got +-36% and the LibDem %age hasn't changed from last time.

 

[ROSM]

Has anywhere given a projected %age share of the vote per party yet?

Not yet but for reasons I gave earlier

- labour putting resources into winning seats rather than stacking votes up where Not needed

- 7 parties getting over 2 % of the vote (5 on projection getting more than 10 seats)

- reform fighting 611 seats rather than brexit in 300 last tine

- Palestine impacting Muslim vote

I expect labour to get 38%, tories 23, reform 15, lib dem 10%, green 6, snp 3%, Plaid 2% rest 3%

 

[Eeyore]

I think this exit poll may be the one that got the actual seat distribution most wrong. Not surprising as I'm not sure it's a clear cut as before. So there may be some interesting results still.

So who will be the next Tory leader then. I thought it would be Penny Mordaunt but it seems she may lose her seat.

If she does lose, will she have to give the sword back ?

Online, Curtice mentioned Labour’s vote share may be down on Corbyn’s 2017.

 

[South Stand Bonfire]

According to the predictor, East Worthing/Adur 99% labour win

Does it come with batteries?

James ‘hilarious rape jokes’ Cleverly might go too.

The sword would have been sold off to the highest bidder months ago.

 

[Hugo Rune]

Tory Micheal Green forecast to loose his seat.

Yes - it seems there was an awful lot of caveating from Curtice on the Beeb

 

[Hugo Rune]

Is it me or has Kussenburg been chewing a wasp all evening?

 

[Sid and the Sharknados]

Liberal complaining about FPTP again. Far cough.

Well it's not like anything's changed about it. Over 50% of people who voted could have stayed at home or voted another way without making any difference to the outcome.

I'm not going to suddenly think that's acceptable just because the exit poll's showing a result I like.

Now let us never mention it again [on this thread at least]

[Mike Small]

Has anywhere given a projected %age share of the vote per party yet?

Read or heard Labour ranging from 36.5%-38%
