Current Affairs 2017 General Election

[TheBlueGibbon]

Warwick and Leamington confirmed as Labour. Very impressive swing. IIRC a lot of University of Warwick students live in Leamington.

What the BBC said.

Just checked... before that, it was held by an Independent.

Last time it went Labour was under Gladstone (!)

 

[tsubaki]

Laura Kuenssberg saying that May's intention will be to stay on for the Brexit negotiations, which would certainly be a brave move.

Destroyed Kent there

 

[arminisgod]

Derby north gone to Labour!

Kuenssberg has no credibility

The last great wool Prime Minister, and also the one to have the best vices (chopping trees down and roaming the streets of London for prostitutes).

Alex Salmond is deluded if he thinks there'll be another independence referendum anytime soon.
He needs to belt up banging that drum, he's not been re-elected himself just yet !!

 

[abelard]

can someone who better understands Scottish politics explain how another election would play out?

it would appear that SNP is cratering, and likely to continue doing so. and one would think that despite Tory protest-vote gains tonight, anti-Tory pro-Remain Scotland wouldn't want to be the one place enabling May or BoJo to push for a harder Brexit. no?

now tell me why that's all wrong.
