UK General Election 2017 - 8 June

[Baz]

You don't even need to know your name. Bloke in front of me said his address and the woman was like 'is it Andrew?' and he looked confused and went 'er no, Jake' followed by 10 seconds of confused silence and then him going 'Andrew lives over the road' and her realising she was looking a line too high.

Voted labour anyway. Our local person sounds like a right dirty slag. Marie Rimmer. :drool:

:uhoh:

[Byron]

Not sure how my constituency will pan out (Norwich South).

I'd assume Clive Lewis has it, he won just under 40% of the vote and 67% of the vote went to Left leaning parties, but he's a Corbynista and he also voted against Article 50, which really brought him some ire from the Brexiteers and the 'Soft' Remainers. Plus the Conservative candidate has been going hard here, seen more signs for her than I did in 2015 definitely.

[Offshore Toon]

Who's giving the all nighter a shot then? I think I napped at some stage around 5-8, but I had a terrible night's sleep so I may still drift off early. I tend not to fight it since its better to cut out the crap, wake up and take it all in at once.

[P_3]

With Douglas "Dougie" Carswell gone, I picked actor Giles Watling for the Conservatives. :flex:

[Magic]

Who's giving the all nighter a shot then? I think I napped at some stage around 5-8, but I had a terrible night's sleep so I may still drift off early. I tend not to fight it since its better to cut out the crap, wake up and take it all in at once.

I tend to go to bed earlyish with just the polling info to find out the terrible news around 4-5am thanks to a BREAKING notification on my phone.

*gasps* TORY MAJORITY
*gasps* BREXIT
*gasps* TRUMP
*gasps* CORBYN

[Byron]

I'll stay up until the Exit Polls to see Owen Jones have a breakdown on national TV.

[Magic]

I must admit it would be really funny to see a crushing Tory win that included them stealing SNP seats. That's the only thing I'll settle for, other than Corbz.

[Waffdon]

Really don't fancy doing an all nighter with tomorrow being Friday so not exactly a good day to sleep all day after work. Obvious outcome too.

[GS]

The exit poll should give a very good picture of what's going to happen, if you're only interested in the result. The all-nighter is when you get to see prime moments of hilarity, like Angus Robertson or Nick Clegg hopefully being thrown out.

[Alan Shearer The 2nd]

I've just had a 2.5 hour kip so it'd be rude not to do the all nighter. It'd be worth it just to see Angus Robertson lose his seat live.

[Mike]

Who's giving the all nighter a shot then? I think I napped at some stage around 5-8, but I had a terrible night's sleep so I may still drift off early. I tend not to fight it since its better to cut out the crap, wake up and take it all in at once.

I'll check twitter before bed. I'll check twitter when I wake up. Depending on how many times I hit snooze tomorrow I may watch a bit of the news before work.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Nothing will beat the Keith Vaz Tears from the referendum, but I'll be staying up as long as I can.

If there isn't a big majority, I kind of hope it goes the other way and Jezza parades into number ten propped up by the Coalition of Chaos, the spectator sport would be just marvellous.

[GS]

As Floyd alluded to, the EU referendum was worth the all-nighter just to see Keith Vaz bursting into tears live on air about ten minutes after the result was declared.

The true pinnacle would be to see Alex Salmond reduced to a quibbling mess after he loses his seat in the face of a Tory onslaught north of the border, but alas it's almost certainly out of reach.

Nick Clegg losing his own seat and waffling on about "continuing the fight against this extreme Brexit" would be outstanding as well.

The best bit will be GS' posts as he comes to realises Corbyn's done it.

[Magic]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LAjlNjdjN-U

:(

I've literally just watched that. :D

[Henry]

What's wrong with that exactly?

Now, what's the best place to watch this? I'll do the exit poll and a bit more but like fuck am I staying up all night. The only question is whether I need a beer now...

[GS]

872917155888680960

Please be true.

872916312108007424

Wonder what the surprises could be. Maybe they take out a big hitter or two from the other parties e.g. Clegg, Lucas.

[Magic]

He knows he's going to lose his cheap Romanian male prostitutes.

[Magic]

872917155888680960

Please be true.

It's happening. :D

[-james-]

When's the exit poll due?

[igor_balis]

hey BIG SHOCKER i know but i also enjoyed that parliawint tweet. nice one, phonics!

[Henry]

When's the exit poll due?

6 minutes according to the countdown in front of Kay Burley.

*switches to BBC*

[Magic]

This is because the Tories are the clear unionist party. Silly SNP tory lite cunts.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Currently No Overall Majority is almost the same odds as 100-124 majority.

Got to hand it to the exit poll people for not leaking whatever it is.

[Byron]

I'm calling it now, 50 seat majority for May, enough to give her a working majority but not enough to keep detractors at bay.

[Byron]

Dimbleby is on :drool:

Come on, stay coherent for a few hours David.

[Lewis]

What.

[Henry]

LOLOLOLOL

[Magic]

Haha the SNP. :harold:

[Byron]

My word :drool:

[igor_balis]

hahahahahah

[Amigo]

Err, lol?

[Yevrah]

Fuck Ing Hell.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Ha, quality.

Looks like massive SNP collapse helping Corbz but I don't see where the rest of it is coming from.

[Yevrah]

Actually, I'm calling it. The exit poll is wrong.

[Lewis]

No chance.

EDIT: As in yes, it's wrong.

[Dark Soldier]

:violin: :violin: :drool:

Let's do this

[SvN]

Lol at Jimmy. Hope you can afford rent this month, mate.

[Alan Shearer The 2nd]

There goes my £200 but if that SNP number is accurate that will be out fucking standing.

[P_3]

Oh shit! :uhoh:

[Amigo]

How reliable are these exit polls anyway?

[Henry]

Denial. :drool:

[Dark Soldier]

:drool:

[Cord]

The schadenfreude would be immense if this is true.

[Byron]

How reliable are these exit polls anyway?

Very accurate, more so than any poll. Think the last election erred by 4 seats.

[Yevrah]

Isn't this poll the same as last time.

They have refreshed the pivot table, right?

[Jimmy Floyd]

I'm not calling the exit poll to be wrong. It's usually right.

I would like to know where these Tory losses to Labour are though.

[Cord]

Michael Fallon playing the Paddy Ashdown role.

[Henry]

The chances of a Conservative majority given that exit poll and the margin of error based on previous exit polls is about one in ten, I think.

Also:
Tories = 314
Labour + LibDems + SNP = 314

It doesn't take much to see Corbyn as PM.

[Waffdon]

Oh god I might need to stay up. Sake

[Magic]

So does this mean coalition of chaos or not?

[Yevrah]

If the exit poll is right and that's the result, what a year the tories have had. Absolutely useless.

[Jimmy Floyd]

If you're into the exit poll, hung parliament is still odds against, pile in.

[Adamski]

The seethe in here if that's correct :drool:

The absolute boy.

[Magic]

Neil Slorance the satirical cartoonist. :D

Where do BBC Scotland get these cunts.

Sounds like a fucking Viz character.

[Yevrah]

To be fair to him, he has very well in the run in.

[Disco]

How can you watch this early, it's all meaningless shite until at least 1am.

[Magic]

Time to wind up the NATs @alanshearerthe2nd Waffdon

[Boydy]

As excited as I am by that exit poll, I'm still feeling very wary.

[Lofty]

Fuck sake I should've taken tomorrow off

[Byron]

Amber Rudd in trouble :drool:

[Disco]

No work tomorrow for me, there are however decorators in the house so I either have to tough it out all day before getting any sleep or get a tactical few hours in before they turn up.

[Reg]

Trying not to get my hopes up but cor blimey guv!

[Yevrah]

It's going to be a long night and if it ends with the SNP in power I'm going to cry.

[Alan Shearer The 2nd]

Time to wind up the NATs @alanshearerthe2nd Waffdon

Providing there's no chance of them somehow getting into a coalition of chaos. :uhoh:

[Waffdon]

It's the hope that kills eh

[John]

SNP losing twenty two seats would be glorious, whether they wind up in a coalition or not. They'd be even more limp and ineffective than the Lib Dems were. I don't think people down south really appreciate how divided their politicians are in terms of personal policy. They're a collection of everything from hardline left wingers to centre right held together by the one thing they all agree on. Their views are so disparate that they need an official policy of never disagreeing with the party leader under threat of expulsion to keep them in line.

I'm not sure I trust the exit poll, but there has definitely been a much larger mobilisation of the youth vote than in any year I can remember so it's possible they've swung it for Corbyn in enough places for it to be true.

[Pleb]

I see that the Tyne-Wear has kicked off

[Kikó]

Long night ahead. Wow

[Yevrah]

SNP losing twenty two seats would be glorious.

Not if they end up in power in a coalition it won't.

[Mellberg]

Tomorrow booked off. Beers in. Let's do this.

[Jimmy Floyd]

No way the fucking DUP are backing Corbyn of all people, so you can take down the coalition of chaos bunting (until the next election in a month's time).

[Byron]

So who next for Conservative leader, Fallon?

[Magic]

Not if they end up in power in a coalition it won't.

What clout would they have with that little seats?

[John]

Not if they end up in power in a coalition it won't.

See the edit.

[Pleb]

So who next for Conservative leader, Fallon?
Boris.

[7om]

My stomach nearly fell out my arse when I saw the exit poll. Fuck sake. At least it ensures excitement tonight.

[Disco]

Given the accuracy of the last one I wouldn't start burying your cash in the garden just yet.

[Pleb]

The BBC panel is having a right good seethe.

[Jimmy Floyd]

The only 'I told you so' I'm getting here is Salmond losing his seat I think.

Hey ho, might have to cancel this month's pink gin order.

[Shindig]

I'd take either coalition. It's a huge vote of confidence for the state of this era of politics.

[Dark Soldier]

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DB0-cWQXsAAbTXM.jpg

[Pepe]

So what's happening? Someone give me a rundown.

[Pepe]

MANDATE

I think.

[Pleb]

Theresa May is getting fired Pepe.

[Yevrah]

DS' picture sums it up well Pep.

[Pleb]

I can imagine the scenes if the Tories lose Devon and Cornwall completely.

[Offshore Toon]

:drool:

[Alan Shearer The 2nd]

Don't worry lads, clearly what's happened here is the pensioners have trolled the exit pollers.

[Byron]

The exit poll suggesting Reading has gone Labour. I couldn't think of a more Conservative seat?

[John]

May will be the world's biggest arsehole if she loses an election she didn't have to call.

I'm in a position where no result short of an SNP landslide in Scotland which they can use to claim MANDATE for a second referendum will really affect me so this is basically sport.

[Pepe]

DS' picture sums it up well Pep.

Yes, he posted at the same time.


Don't worry lads, clearly what's happened here is the pensioners have trolled the exit pollers.

:D

[Magic]

Coalition of chaos, the SNP fading in to insignificance because of a labour resurgence in Scotland at the next election...oh my.

[Waffdon]

Labour 85% in Liverpool. Great cunts. English Dundee.

[Kikó]

Let's not forget the SNP went from 6 to 56 seats. This is pretty much normalising them.

[Shindig]

I want a WWE stable with an unfortunate IRA acronym.

[Waffdon]

Sky news dame is lovely.

Sunderland are a bunch of weirdos.

[Shindig]

They'd like to be first at something. Someone needs to check on GS.

[Mellberg]

Currently begging Sinn Fein for membership.

[Yevrah]

Has John Curtice been living in a hedge since the polls lost all credibility.

[Henry]

Diane Abbot for PM!!!

[Jimmy Floyd]

Currently begging Sinn Fein for membership.

Even if they did, it would be like equal votes on everything, total chaos, you'd have to have another election in the autumn if the exit poll is right.

[Lewis]

lol at this DUP bloke pretending they have open minds on working with Labour and the SNP.

[Mellberg]

I meant GS.

Agree with you on the exit poll though. No one gets the majority if it's right.

[phonics]

GS as invisible as Theresa Mays mandate atm.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Just cashed out for £7.18. All round mine for a cheeseboard.

[7om]

Labour - SNP - Lib Dem - Plaid Cymru - Green coalition.

Any more? Monster Raving Loony? British Communist?

Armed police at the Sunderland polling station?

Jesus.

[Gray Fox]

Labour 85% in Liverpool. Great cunts. English Dundee.

That's one that'll never change. You'd maybe see a Lib Dem seat sneak in, in past elections.

[Dquincy]

Sky news dame is lovely.

Sunderland are a bunch of weirdos.

Got a pic?

[Jimmy Floyd]

That result is better for the Tories than the exit poll.

[Offshore Toon]

leedsrevolution

This thread was a proper ECHO CHAMBER, but it's not over yet.

[7om]

Fucking hell, Curtis looks rough as fuck.

[Waffdon]

Got a pic?

She's gone. Cute wifey type.

[ScousePig]

Sunderland can't do a thing right. Bet it's all counted wrong, too.

[Yevrah]

Newcastle and Sunderland haven't born out the swings to Labour expected.

The exit poll has understated the tory vote in both places.

[Alan Shearer The 2nd]

That result is better for the Tories than the exit poll.

It's stopping me cashing out for £25 at the minute.

BBC saying 76 seats are too close to call, interesting evening ahead at the very least.

[Lewis]

The North East was doing this in 2010 as well to be fair, but this does look promising in terms of the UKIP split.

[Yevrah]

Tory majority odds have swung from evens into 1.68 on the back of that.

[Magic]

It's stopping me cashing out for £25 at the minute.

BBC saying 76 seats are too close to call, interesting evening ahead at the very least.

Hedging your bets on UKIP voters going Tory. :harold:

[Jimmy Floyd]

It's stopping me cashing out for £25 at the minute.

I think the south might have let the side down here.

[Lewis]

I think the south might have let the side down here.

Well, well, well...

[Waffdon]

Twitter says only 10 seats were polled for the exits in Scotland and 45 may be a more accurate figure for snp

Probably shite. Like Conservatives not getting a majority.

[Lofty]

Wouldn't base the whole election result on what the parmo loving mentalists did.

[Alan Shearer The 2nd]

I think the south might have let the side down here.

Unexpected swing in Sunderland to the Tories.

False hope. :happycry:

[Pepe]

So who here thinks all this DRAMA is a media fabrication?

[Jimmy Floyd]

Well, well, well...

We've basically moved onto ponce vs non-ponce, and the ponce vote flooding over to Labour.

[Lewis]

We've basically moved onto ponce vs non-ponce, and the ponce vote flooding over to Labour.

I look forward to the commuter belters seething themselves to death at British Rail.

[Lofty]

I look forward to the commuter belters seething themselves to death at British Rail.

We're giving you the same bumming as BR except we charge more and don't have to dress it up.

[Lewis]

Anyone who thinks British Rail was good is either a communist or doesn't know anything about it. Where is GS?

[Jimmy Floyd]

You could say, she is very Priti. :)

[Yevrah]

That's not enough for Labour either.

[Magic]

This Peter Kellner is such a cunt.

[John]

The independent trying to look delighted with his three hundred votes there and the Kipper being the only result read out to silence both brought a lol.

[Dark Soldier]

Tories getting the racist votes :drool:

[Lewis]

The poll man is starting his (now traditional) arse-covering dance. It's well on.

[Henry]

I'm off to bed. Should this be borne out I will really enjoy reading this thread in the morning.

Adios, comrades.

[Alan Shearer The 2nd]

Is this the false hope the Corbynistas have had in the past week?

Agreed on Patel.

[Magic]

I'm giving it 10-15 more minutes.

[Yevrah]

The poll man is starting his (now traditional) arse-covering dance. It's well on.

Curtice (who has been a consistent shambles for God knows how long now) in explaining how postal votes were factored in blew the lid on what a shitshow of a process polling is.

[Waffdon]

Brexit central there though init

[Kikó]

Patel is bang tidy.

[Dquincy]

I don't get what all the fuss is about.

If Labour only won by one vote in a constituency, they would still get the seat. And it doesn't necessarily mean they are going to get less votes elsewhere just because their majority in a certain constituency has reduced.

[Jimmy Floyd]

The poll man is starting his (now traditional) arse-covering dance. It's well on.

It's not. The remain ponces down south are going to blow it.

[Mellberg]

It's because exit polls are calculated using projections. The three results so far all suggest they may be out, which could lead to the predictions being wrong in tighter constituencies.

[Lewis]

Curtice (who has been a consistent shambles for God knows how long now) in explaining how postal votes were factored in blew the lid on what a shitshow of a process polling is.

If the Conservatives end up with fifty-odd more seats than the exit poll said then this is officially the funniest thing ever.

[Magic]

I don't get what all the fuss is about.

If Labour only won by one vote in a constituency, they would still get the seat. And it doesn't necessarily mean they are going to get less votes elsewhere just because their majority in a certain constituency has reduced.

It's trying to project where the racist UKIP votes are going.

[7om]

Patel is bang tidy.

Too right. I think it was the glasses.

[Mellberg]

Filthy smile as well. Fire away.

[Magic]

Haha they don't have a clue.

[Boydy]

Dimbleby slagging off the sound quality. :D

[Jimmy Floyd]

There's the first of the southern wankers.

[John]

Dimbers is a babbling mess already.

Someone needs to get a hair and makeup person on to Curtice pronto. He looks like a paedophile's mugshot.

[Mellberg]

And to the news, who shall proceed to bang on about everything we've covered in the last couple of hours.

[Alan Shearer The 2nd]

Andrew Neil not getting to do this is a crime.

[7om]

So the news goes straight to the fucking shit exit poll Dimbleby has been waffling on about for the last two hours. Superb.

[Boydy]

00:30: We have run the numbers on Kettering, and once again, YouGov's hung parliament model is holding up very well. It is actually slightly understating Labour. It now looks as if, if the exit poll is wrong, it is understating Labour's gains.

[Jimmy Floyd]

I would have it between David Davis and Sajid Javid.

Boris will probably win once everyone decides Jezza's ENERGY is the way forward.

[7om]

Cuthbertson is an actual fucking surname? Jesus.

[Lewis]

Boris will probably win once everyone decides Jezza's ENERGY is the way forward.

I still work on the assumption that he would fall to bits in a national campaign, but if Jeremy fucking Corbyn can weather one then maybe you were right all along.

[Jimmy Floyd]

I still work on the assumption that he would fall to bits in a national campaign, but if Jeremy fucking Corbyn can weather one then maybe you were right all along.

He's not the Prime Minister we need, but he's probably the Prime Minister we deserve.

[Boydy]

I don't think Boris would be very good for you. I reckon people see through him by now.

[Yevrah]

Tories are now as long as they've been all night for an overall majority. Beginning to look like May's absolutely fucked it, which is thoroughly deserved as her campaign had absolutely no substance whatsoever.

This campaign being described as a success for Corbyn is a bit much mind, even if the exit poll is right, it's just not been as shit as everybody expected. A genuine success would have been actually winning.

We need much better people in politics though, as this flip flopping shitshow can't continue.

[Lewis]

Tell you what, that National Government pish I wrote last year looks amazing now.

[Jimmy Floyd]

I don't think Boris would be very good for you. I reckon people see through him by now.

He's like a more exciting, more idiotic Cameron. Back to the metropolitan elite. Not the provincial, deliberately dry vicar's daughter that May is.

I don't know, to be honest. There isn't really a unifying figure left in the party - unless they catapult someone properly random forward from the backbenches (Jesse Norman comes to mind).

[Yevrah]

I don't think Boris would be very good for you. I reckon people see through him by now.

You're bang on with that. He's damaged goods and a bit crap.

[Yeldoow]

Whatever else anyone wants to say about Jeremy Corbyn, campaigning is his thing.

Fuck it and go Rees-Mogg.

[Jimmy Floyd]

On my results, the Tory vote is what I expected or maybe 2% lower max. What I didn't have was nobody seeing through Corbyn.

[Offshore Toon]

I've actually got time for Rees-Mogg. I don't necessarily agree with him, but he'd be much better than May or Cameron.

Mon you Welsh cunts

I would like to see what Alastair Campbell has to say about all this.

[Lewis]

If I could rep myself for 'Currie McMuncher' I would.

[Jimmy Floyd]

This is all getting a bit Coalition of Chaos.

Many parallels with that wanker Ted Heath fucking it in Feb 1974.

[-james-]

Corbyn next PM shorter odds than May. :rasta:

I wanted to but I repped you for that Sun frontpage. Well played.

[Waffdon]

Errrr, Betfair have Corbyn as favourite to be next PM.

Edit: fffffs James

[Mellberg]

Fuuuuuck.

[Lewis]

Anna Soubry and Amber Rudd possibly going. Pyrrhic victory there.

[Alan Shearer The 2nd]

SNP vote collapsing. :drool:

[Jimmy Floyd]

If Corbyn ends up as PM we've all had it. Worse than Trump.

[Dark Soldier]

Because May will be gone if this carries on.

Coalition of Chaos as a phrase can fuck off. Campaigning on a ticket of the opposition being dreadful rather that what you can bring is so so poor.

It's exactly the same shit that did for remain.

[Boydy]

That BBC reporter mentioning the 'book of condolences' being placed wherever it was but not saying what it was for (the London attack) made it sound like it was for May. :D

[Gray Fox]

A quick check through all betting sites show most/all of them have Corbyn as favourite to be next PM.

How soon after the referrendum voting closed did the bookies get it right?

And 'Hillary'. Unless this is another sexist vote.

[Mellberg]

Leave price and Trump were both decent until the last couple of hours, weren't they? As in, 3/1 decent.

[Yevrah]

How soon after the referrendum voting closed did the bookies get it right?

It'll be in the thread, but leave didn't go favourite until quite some time after it was clear they were going to win.

[Jimmy Floyd]

I've just had some on Labour largest party at 6/1. If you can't beat 'em, join 'em.

[Reg]

Jimmy's cracked and turned his account into a parody.

[Offshore Toon]

You've got to be a tad wary of the bookies trying to provoke interest, surely? Either that or people are getting carried away by what looks like an amazing start?

[Mellberg]

15/1 six weeks ago.

[Lewis]

Watching Shami Chakrabarti being all smug gives me some idea of what it was like for mimsies watching Nigel Farage giving it the big'un last year.

[Waffdon]

Mhari Black holding her seat is dece for a coalition. Most "labour like" by far.

[Yevrah]

The politics has changed narrative is nonsense as well. People just like personality these days. Farage had it, Corbyn's shown he's got some, Trump (despite being a weaponised tool) has it as well. Clinton, May and Osborne just don't.

[7om]

Welsh :lol:

Systematic cuts to welfare, abhorrent treatment of the disabled, cuts to smaller towns out the absolute arse and the lack of jobs and prospects and hope kinda adds to it too. But yeah, personality woo.

[Mellberg]

:D

Finger so far off the pulse he's got it up his arse.

[-james-]

The big winner here are EE the phone people, from whom I've already purchased £20 worth of data roaming addons so that I can stream the beeb.

[John]

Welsh sounds like someone coughing down the phone.

And yet those places are getting the biggest pro-Con swings, and London and Manchester et al are piling up the Labour votes.

Because they're thick as fucking pig shit, not denying that. I just trust a lot of the smarter populace to see such things and tide over the dregs. Bury North was Con last time round, talk around here has been Labour but we'll see, these smaller towns harbour a ton of the UKIP wankstains which swings it.

[Jimmy Floyd]

15/1 six weeks ago.

It's gone out to 9 now. Whoever I back immediately fucks it.

[John]

Ten percent swing to Labour in Putney is a big one, even if they didn't actually take it.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Things I've got right:

- The Sun has no effect
- The SNP are for it

Er, that's it.
