The numbers can't add up unless there is a change in the landscape. The 'others' include the Unionist parties and Sinn Fein, who won't participate.

I would think not at all. The difference between Labour and the Tories, along with the bad blood and indeed the LDs being slightly burned by coalition will preclude that.

If it's right, the exit poll signals political doom for May, and hopefully for the Tories. 

Another Tory government will be a disaster for Britain, but it'll be a disaster for the Tories in the long-term. 

Corbyn will be PM yet, you know. That could be before 2020.

The irony is last time, it was Labour's fault we didn't get a Lab/SNP coalition

Now this year it will be SNP's fault. All of SNP's losses are going to Tories. 1 year we'll get it right.

It's a puzzler. But May is finished. No way she will survive this.

Hold tight, projections are just that!



They'd want to be way out though for a comfortable majority though
I know, but the bubbly is remaining in the fridge DI!

I looked yesterday, Bojo is favourite, at 4/1! Who else? As a Corbyn supporter I would love Boris, but they can't, can they?
