Current Affairs 2017 General Election

[GwladysBlue]

Hahaha.

Please be right.

 

[edge]

refuse to believe it till its done and dusted

 

[jinkyali]

Are Newcastle or Sunderland traditionally Tory seats ?

 

[Tubey]

May's performance aside, Corbyn has done something quite incredible here. In the face of what looked like insurmountable opposition from his own party and the media, he has run a grassroots campaign that has captured so much support it's almost hard to believe.

Being realistic a win was never on the cards, this is almost as good as anybody who supported Labour could have hoped.

He's done an incredible job. As close to a perfect UK political campaign as you could imagine.

Combined with one of the worst in history from May and... here we are.

Insane stuff.

 

[Donald Twain]

Ok so is everybody going to accept the result? No crying or moaning?

we're coming for you mate!

 

[Mrk]

Are Newcastle or Sunderland traditionally Tory seats ?

Oh yeah, solid Tory...

 

[orly]

Hey lads, just a quick one, if it's a hung parliament the S*n have failed to back a winner for the first time in god knows how long

Just thought I'd share

 

[Blue 1]

Wowzers.

 

[Moomin]

Think we will have another Election if them exit polls are right.

 

[Tubey]

Oh yeah, solid Tory...

The amount of foxes hunted and the sales of tweed jackets up on Tyneside are through the roof.

 

[hullefc]

Want to get excited but didn't the exit poll last time indicate a hung parliament?

The exit poll is based on the 40% of the electorate that go out to the polls, 36%ish don't vote and 24% is postal votes.

 

[Groucho]

Weird little Brexit mongs aren't they

Don't be using that word

 

[Brennan]

He's done an incredible job. As close to a perfect UK political campaign as you could imagine.

Combined with one of the worst in history from May and... here we are.

Insane stuff.

Just imagine if he had the support of his own MPs...

 

[Old Blue 2]

So we want the polls to say Tory, you go to bed and wake up and Labour has won. Nighty, nighty and sleep tight mate.

The early results will potentially be most interesting regarding any swing... As happened last June, but it was still believed the 'big gun' areas would carry it for Remain. That was cross-party; this is politically polarised to a great extent (in other words, none of us know yet exactly where the floating vote has landed).

 

[dandydan]

we're coming for you mate!

My party will end up with the same amount of seats as people that asked Corbyn for copies of his nude pictures of Diane Abbott.
