Current Affairs The General Election

Oh well, higher percentage of the vote than in 2010 and 2015. Not bad for the worst leader in the history of the party I guess.

I’m just waiting for the announcement of this hung government that @davek promised......

Congrats Pete. No doubts about the true wishes of the English population anyway.

No question of a need for a second referendum either.

Enjoy the success.

As for the UK, an interesting decade ahead.

It was a Brexit election, Corbyn failed to grasp this.

Everton fans voting for Boris. Heart breaking.

Said it months ago...if I could see it why not the Labour front bench?

Labour are oncourse for a kicking in this GE, all their own doing, masses of Labour brexiteers are seething with Corbyn, life long Labour voters will be voting Tory and Brexit party in the 10's of 1000's soon.

Labour are going to get a massive kicking at the next election, Corbyn has been an anti-EU campaigner all his career, wanting to take back power off the EU.

He's a charlatan, with Keir starmer in his ear a staunch remainer, he's been told this is how you fight the Tories to win, so he's changed Labour into a remain party, turned his back on thousands of supporters who voted leave, and done a 180 on his own beliefs in order to try be PM.

Sooner Corbyn is gone the sooner Labour can genuinely think about winning an election again, when Starmer will probably be the next leader.

Said it months ago Peter they'd get a kicking, not surprised if a Labour collapse happens, they've alienated 5m Labour brexit voters.

I’m just glad to see the back of Soubry and Grieve, arrogant self opinionated egotists.......

Why everyone Kicking off because Sturgeon was celebrating her victory. Fair play to her. People saying because she is a women politician she shouldn’t act like that and support other women in politics. Heads gone with that.

She hates the tories, hope scotland get a vote, am coming back Glasgow x

i actually thought that was one of the bright spots on a gloomy night fair play to her.

I've not had a chance to check individual results. But did any Liverpool constituencies turn Tory at all?

That doesn't count for a lot if you're losing 42 seats.

mate a load of “youngsters” went out and voted in safe seats, yet he lost coal mining towns that have been ripped to the core by thatcher

there’s nothing positive to take from it, he’s the worst labour leader in history

I know the system, boys. I know it was a catastrophic night. Shows the problem ain´t just Corbyn though. It´s not worked for 3 different leaders now under 3 different approaches.
