368 Mandates to the Tories and only 191 to Labour

What a surprise if this exit polls stand.

Which it hardly do.

You'd better believe it :)

Early indications are an 86 seat majority for Boris and a clear vindication for calling a snap election.

They share a large portion of the blame for what could be about to happen in the eyes of many Brits.

Please please lets see labour crushed into the pigs swill dirt. And from the ashes rises a brand new moderate labour that has thrown off the shackles of Marxism and that vile momentum and good riddance to the nameless one.


News in on LBC Swinson could loose her seat, SNP have got a good 90% chance to win it. Oh please lets have double joy please.

I'm sitting and watching the Danish news channel and throughout the night they are broadcasting live from the British election(no I'm not going to stay up all night)

about a half hour ago, one of their reporter visit Labour where they have their election party(maybe not the correct word)

She interviewet some maleperson.

Can't remember every word he said. But the words I do remember, made me wonder.

He said " Corbyn went from hero to zero over night"

Now I wonder-If this polls stand will the top and others important people in the labour party demand Corbyn being keelhauled ?

I ponder on one question should Labour fail drastically: It is a long held Labour tradition that after a general election defeat the leader makes way for a new one. Will this happen this time or will Momentum hang on to the power they currently have after decades of trying and protect Steptoe?

Only time will tell.

We cross posted Markus but in answer to you I suspect there will be an internal civil war between the left and right wing factions meaning the Labour Party will be the loser whichever way it goes.

It be the rallying call to the moderates their time has come to don the armour and lop off the head of the nameless one. This is their hour they must act on it.

The moderates as you refer to them are hopelessly outnumbered at the present time.

What is left for them, they tried the big give away. Abolish tax, free cigarettes and beer and a free third car, no one is going to fall for their crap anymore they are finished and they know it.

Thank you for the answer.

I guess they also will "investigate" where it went wrong and with my little knowledge about parties who have lost big time in an election...they will blame others for it.

Second.

SNP can forget everything regarding a second referendum-if Tories win with this majority.(said on Danish tv)
