Wolverhampton North East: CON GAIN FROM LAB

Did she just say Leigh has been labour since 1885?

yep, 97 years

 

[17 Van der Gouw]

Isn’t Johnson close to losing his seat?

It's possible but mostly doubtful. He could actually still be Prime Minister even without a seat as MP.

If he does lose it, he'll have to ask one of his MPs in a safe seat to stand down, then stand in the by-election himself.

There goes Blackpool South to Cons, they said it would swing. That's Fylde, South. North, Fleetwood & Lancaster I expect to hold. Looking forward to another 5 years of earth tremors and constant road protests once Boris lifts the suspension on Fracking.

Isn’t Johnson close to losing his seat?

No!

 

[Judas]

The Tories have played a blinder, like taking candy from a bunch of very stupid babies.

 

[Ultimate Grib]

how you feeling?

Dejected. Reading what you said earlier it seems most people didn’t have an advocate to bring them to their senses.

Livid that IDS fecking got in. The Lib Dems are a fecking disgrace and so are their idiot voters in Chingford. Nasty pro-leave cnut gets in by the Lib Dem back door.

[hobbers]

Youthquake turns up for canterbury. A damning indictment on the potency of the skunk available there.

 

[Klopper76]

Nigel Dodds has lost his seat apparently.

Isn't a lot of the shift from Labour to Brexit though? Not sure those people would have voted Tory, otherwise they probably just would have.

a lot of the shift is from Labour to Brexit. But if there is no Brexit Party candidate, then the only other party promising to deliver Brexit are the Tories. Clearly it’s hypothetical, but I think the majority of people voting for the Brexit party would vote Tory if there was no Brexit Party option.

yep

He's saying what I have been the past couple of days, however he goes too far solely blaming Labour for the strength of the right. It's obviously not all down to them.

They certainly have played a role though, they have let us all down.

Maybe, but then you'd have to ask why they didn't just vote Tory, especially in some of the seats where it clearly would've got the Tories in. They must have pretty decent opposition to voting them.

I'm sure people will try, but hard to disagree with her.

She didn't even knife Corbyn as she might have.

this is the problem with labour. ITVs analysis is that she is very popular at a national level, but momentum wouldn’t accept her as a leader and she has no chance of being elected as such.

 

[DavidDeSchmikes]

Redcar: Con GAIN

Yikes.

Partial recount in Ed's seat.

Momentum have had how long now?

How Corbyn and any of them can remain come morning would sum it up.

 

[DavidDeSchmikes]

Yikes.

i know. Suprised with Ynys Mon going Conservatives

 

[sammsky1]

Chuka Umunna loses in Westminster. Kicked out of parliament!

 

[DavidDeSchmikes]

Chuka Umunna comes second in the Cities of London and Westminster

Conservatives hold Cities of London and Westminster

There are a lot of people who do very little research into how they vote, and wouldn’t do this analysis.But if the option wasn’t there, they would be forced to vote differently.

Chuka Umunna loses in Westminster. Kicked out of parliament!

Rachel Riley will be devastated. Poor thing.

 

[redshaw]

What I am surprised by is how little LibDems have profited from the substantial remain vote from traditional Tory voters.

Like I suggested, many weeks ago, Jo Swinson is nothing but a massive pair of tits. Nice to look at, but no basis for a system of government.

It's surprising and at the same it isn't.

Lib Dems have been clear from the start they will remain, we've had so much vitrol over this 2016 result from the remain side, millions marching, the country almost split on the vote but none of them can even vote Lib Dem once in their lives to stop Brexit and let Lib Dems in power for a poxy 5 years. The Lib Dems haven't even moved the needle because people are so tied to Con or Lab, it something I've seen since I was young, a two party system.

 

[Zarlak]

Dodds loses his seat.

Chuka Umunna loses in Westminster. Kicked out of parliament!

from future labour leader to exile. I assume he’s already made calls to the Green Party to see if he can join.
