The election results thread 19:10 - Jun 8 with 58951 viewsexiledclaseboy

Polls close 10pm. BBC, ITV and SKY release the results of their joint exit poll also at 10pm. Some of you may remember election night two years ago when the exit poll predicted a Tory win. It was roundly ridiculed by politicians of all parties and most us on here. You could see Professor John Curtice (who oversees the poll) visibly wilting and wondering if he'd just wrecked his career and reputation. The same Prof Curtice got progressively more smug as the night rolled on and it turned out his poll was more or less spot on.

First result due about 11pm. From Sunderland.

The outcome may be a foregone conclusion but it should be exciting for about an hour or so.

Get it stickied for 24 hours or so please, mods.

Oh, and can someone keep Perch and Bluey away from sharp objects please. Just in case.

He's an honest man who stood by his convictions. And it's paying off in spades tonight bluey. Just gsined Stockton south from the tories. $th gain to nil of the night for labour


Is it paying off in spades?

It's not even close to giving Labour a majority. Not even close. Labour are doing far better than anyone, even themselves expected. The only way Corbyn would get any power would be by making deals which they said they will not do.

SNP stormed Scotland. SNP are now losing seats. This could easily be a one off for Corbyn run Labour - their best shot. Would it be the same against a well run Tory campaign? Who knows.

The truth is that even if he doesn't win a majority he's won anyway. May went all in and lost her chips. Tories will be in meltdown.

Not disagreeing at all.

Blair brought in "hope", swept to power. Corbyn is looking for at best a hung parliament.

I've had 3/4's of a bottle of wine and watching the tv it could well be that I'm on LSD.
Wow maaaaaaannnnnn

Tories woeful.
Labour doing decently.
SNP slumping.
Lib Dems doing errrm are they actually in this?
UKIP - one man party missing a man

Some heavy hitters could be out of parliament. It's like a mountain stage of the Tour de France.

Could Scotland save the Tories and allow them a majority in coalition with the unionists?

That would seriously upset Sturgeon.

Best way to describe it. Much better than expected, not enough to win in their own right.
