Pretty much everywhere I've turned on social media, forums and social circles are fully against the Tories and Johnson.
How the hell are they getting a majority?

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?

What exactly do you personally think you have won?
He’s a twatMark Francois comparing Labours metaphorical red wall the the Berlin Wall
Yeah. Ok.
Would they feck, I voted Labour but if they’d have been Leave they wouldn’t have had my vote in a million years.
How is he even back on tv?Mark Francois comparing Labours metaphorical red wall the the Berlin Wall
That Blyth Valley is too close to call pretty much confirms the exit poll.
Echo chambers.
I've always thought David looks far more like a Prime Minister than Ed. Just on that basis, he'd have had a better chance than Ed to win. McCluskey had to support a fellow uggo.That's just another load of bollocks. The backlash under Ed was about the recession and Cameron promising a referendum.
This simplistic nonsense that it's personality and dialing down the policy is such a narrow view. I agree David would have been a very presentable leader but he still wouldn't have cut through the campaigns key lines from the Tories.
Please note, lewwoo is fishing for reactions with his troll posts. Please just ignore him and don't get banned for breaking rules by insulting him. It's very tempting I know.
70% Labour members back remain though. Tough position to be in really.
Sounds like Caroline Flint might lose her seat. At least one good thing would have come out of the night.
Well there you have it. It's impossible to beat this machine, the best you get is to compromise with it.
A bit worrying that people would only just realise at that point
Because you only see what you want to see on social media, it’s manipulated.
It's bittersweet and the only way I can cope tbh
Basically, to appeal to the masses you need a Tory-lite party, apparently, at least according to posters here. This theoretical party should forget about leftist economic ideas and preferably should shut up about minorities or anything like that so they will be electable.
It's a little depressing. The Hungarian opposition gets the same advice all the time that comes down to 'be like Fidesz except not orange'.
Social media shows what you want to see. Also you are unlikely to be friends or follow people with opposing views, or to a great extent
Where would those Leave voters have gone? Corbyn simply had to explain 'will of the people' blah.
Kate Hoey reppin the Gary Glitter look
I live in the North and saw what was happening on the ground. The Brexit delay has angered a lot of people and even people i personally know who have voted Labour all their lives voted for the Tories today.
I wish they would stop describing the North-East as 'Labour heartlands'. They're obviously fecking not are they...
But Boris and Co also voted to delay!! *face palm*
Laura Pidcock may apparently be in trouble.
Because the country is bigger than echo chambers that stifle discussion through dog-piling and soft censorship.
Ask them how proud of that vote they are next time they need to use a hospital.
As an Irishman, this has confused me beyond belief for so long.
It's actually staggering. I don't get how it's possible.
I almost exclusively see Labour or Anti Tory support online.
Feck sake, someone explain this to me please
Lets have Corbyn instead then. That sounds like a great idea.
Complete contempt for democracy and stirring up hatred is very much a winning strategy, as we can see all over the world, including the UK.
It's social media.
People are still not aware of what it is and how it's used I'm afraid.

The Sun haven't lost a general election since 1974.
Comfortable for the Tories.
Jesus my old town was a 17.4% majority for Labour last time, now 61% chance of a conservative gain.
Glad to have moved out of the shithole
Yep, I don't get how people are letting him wind them up so much
feck them, seriously.
If this exit poll is correct, then I hope every cnut that has been working against Corbyn whilst he's been leader all lose their seats.
Yeah exactly. @Labour4Life ran a poll on Twitter and 93% of the votes were for Labour. Was expecting 500 seats for Labour. In shock here.
