Tories Win Exit Poll By A Very Large Majorityity,

[anotheoldgit]

368 Tories,
191 Labour.

[JimF]

55 SNP

[Mozz71]

I bet the look on the faces of ABs two resident Labour campaigners were treats to behold.

[anotheoldgit]

Majority.......

[JimF]

Don't know about them, but Kezia Dugdale is looking a little down in the mouth!

[jourdain2]

When will they realise that when we voted to leave the EU - WE MEANT IT! (Can't do italics on here for some reason, not shouting, sorry.)

[Bigbad]

John McDonnell is somewhat subdued.
He must think it’s reasonably accurate.

[pixie374]

Not in the slightest bit surprising...

[Jackdaw33]

Early days but my prediction of up to 100 doesn't seem far out.
If the prediction of 55 for the SNP is correct then Swinson could be a goner.

[THECORBYLOON]

If the SNP figure is correct, Ruth Davidson will be skinny-dipping in Loch Ness in a few weeks' time.

[cassa333]

Exit poles, like election predictions can be wrong.

I shall wait till the morning to celebrate.

// I bet the look on the faces of ABs two resident Labour campaigners were treats to behold.//

I was gonna say McDonnell was looking a bit down cast - er but he isnt an AB resident. oops. The post mortem has begun

Beeb Hacks getting it badly wrong again - the great northerners greatly exercised by the rank anti-semitism of Jerry Corbyn - well no not in this rat infested slum of drug takers - west ken? no a bit further north

[Mozz71]

Labour shot themselves in the foot by sticking with Jezza. It was like the last US election: Had the opposition rallied behind an electable leader, they'd have had a hope. Jezza MUST fall on his sword now.

//If the SNP figure is correct, Ruth Davidson will be skinny-dipping in Loch Ness in a few weeks' time//

That will mean that Nessy would be the second scariest looking thing in Loch Ness.

[JimF]

Jackdaw, BBC Scotland has just had a report from Jo Swinson's constituency where the rumours are that the young SNP candidate may have taken her seat back. Fingers crossed!

[JimF]

Absolutely, Mozz. The Labour Party, or what remains of it, will need to do a massive post mortem and try to find a new leader like Tony Blair ASAP. And it doesn't matter what you think of Tony Blair, but he certainly knew how to win general elections.

Exit poles, like election predictions can be wrong.

yeah - accepted - if you poll 100 people and the national rate is dead 50% - the poll can vary 45-55 (I think) - and the more you poll the more accurate the sample becomes.
they were doing 20 000. eye wateringly large considering the steam technology of the 1964 election - and thata should detect a 1% change.

Norman Smith - the marxist Beeb hack - looking serious

[Cloverjo]

It might be wrong!

[Cloverjo]

No one asked me on my exit.

[jourdain2]

I was hoping for a decent, workable Tory majority - so that controls could be exercised by various factions. I really don't want a huge Tory majority - although it is lovely to know that the whole of this country isn't as bonkers as the twitterati have been claiming. :)

McDonnell was still blaming Brexit and not his far left wing intentions.

He would have made Great Britain another, Venezuela. The electorate are not stupid.
