getting bad vibes watching the BBC coverage, binning this off, its the hope that kills you.

I'm switching to Babestation in between results.
Not a big fan of Pretti's tattoos to be honest, but I'll be right back on the news as its breaking.

not worth getting excited about yet, Tories could still get this,

It has a feeling of an Anfield derby, a small bit of hope, swiftly taken away. UKIP votes could ruin this. That and Scotchland, who'd have thought that they would be the reason the Tories get in.

Just go to bed mate. As my nan used to say " doesn't matter who wins, the government always get in".

God bless her stupid but lovely sentiments

Sunderland and Newcastle exit polls wrong, expected a big swing to Labour, actually a swing to the scum.

They are, but to call them a swing from Labour to Conservative is a bit misleading. Labour's vote share has gone up in both, its just that the UKIP vote has collapsed and mostly (around two thirds) seems to have gone Tory.

I ditched UKIP for Labour

I suspect more Ukips will go Tory mate, sadly.

That Sunderland one is way better for tories than you'd expect on the exit poll.

Early days all the same.

The Tory vote went back to what it was in 2010 but Labour has increased by 5 000 between 2010 and now. Very promising for Labour - getting out some of the no voters will hold them in good stead in marginals.

Hmm, yeah that's a worry

Yeah doesn't bode well mate.

 

[Mrk]

This would make a lot of sense & explain the exit poll:



May's focus on a stupid and brainless 'hard brexit' may come back to bite her.

 

[kenada_blue]

Yeah ive always thought that, target those who dont have a solid loyalty to one party or another, IMO a lot of UKIP voters are like that, vote on single issues, easily led

Fractured England in terms of voters. If labour had Scotland, I wouldn't be bothered with them. But they make a big dent now.

not a cert they(ukip) will go to the Tories, certainly in the north a load that way wanted Brexit wouldn't vote tory as a norm.
midlands will be the key to this if they jump to the Tories in numbers it could put the government back in.

Yeah meant to say that about the UKIP vote mate.

 

[orly]

Yeah doesn't bode well mate.

It was limbs everywhere just after 10 but those first two results, that lad on the desk saying could still be 80-100.
