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

Within 6-12 months. A minority government can survive for a while through consensus politics, but with Corbyn being so left wing and the Tories lurching to the right, they can't co-exist and the fringe parties are also unstable due to nationalist issues etc. Labour won't hang themselves by relying on a concession to a second referendum to Sturgeon, for example.

So as soon as a major vote of any contention goes to parliament, they're done.
 
Trying not to get ahead of myself, but imagine if the Tories got a few more seats then predicted and they went the way of the SNP or Labour...

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

Then he wouldn't be Jeremy Corbyn and the PLP wouldn't be the PLP. Corbyn has excelled in what the PLP and the media have done for him - he's played an energetic underdog, grassroots campaigner role and he's pulled it off spectacularly, regardless of the result.
