Really really hope she loses.
ive only ever seen one alive badger.... it was growling at a cat..... my gran votes tory i once saw here showing a cat of her lawn with a broom..... coincidence? i think not!
Apparently there's a lot that are too close to call.
Unionists not wanting indyref2
Unions getting good at tactical voting by the looks of it.
Agreed, fecking unionist Labour going Tory. What is wrong with these people.
Uneducated guess? Referendum hype is down, and SNP have baggage from governing.
If Scotland and Wales put the Tories in power, it'd be such irony. They should have voted Labour.
Lots of horse trading to see if anyone can form a coalition first. Then if they can't, the Tories could have a minority government, but they'd be incredibly weak and prone to a vote of no confidence at basically any time.
"You'll remember me, when The Left's wind blows, upon your fields of barley. You can take The Sun, and the jealous Sky, and feck off to your fields of gold"
Ok shame it's wheat fields but hey you can't win them all.

Already talk of Tories having to rely on Lib Dems for supply and confidence in return for 2nd referendum.
They won almost very Scottish seat in 2015 following a contentious independence referendum, they were always going to make losses this time. The surprise is the tory rise there.

Does the party with the most seats form a Government?
In order to form a Government, a party must be able to command a majority in the House of Commons on votes of confidence and supply. This majority can include support from other political parties, whether or not there is a formal coalition arrangement.
In a situation of no overall control the Government in power before the General Election gets the first chance at creating a government. If they cannot do so, the Prime Minister will resign.
Does the Prime Minister have to resign?
The Prime Minister only has to resign if it is clear that they cannot command a majority of the House of Commons on votes of confidence or supply. This would be the case if the incumbent government fails to make a deal with one or more of the other parties, or if they lose a confidence motion in the House of Commons. The first parliamentary test would be the vote on any amendment to the Queen’s Speech.

anyone else on sky got the woman's dress flickering from red to blue and back again?
Well I'm off to bed. Woke up to unpleasant surprises for both the EU Ref and US Election. Hopefully a pleasant surprise this time around.
See you on the other side chaps.
See you on the other side chaps.
my Scottish relatives are voting tory becuase they don't want another independence referendum..... no idea if this is indicative of population as a whole though.
Where the feck is this Sunderland result?
Yeah sorry I'm talking shite(Being a Labour voter everything is a bit crazy at the moment), I somehow thought it was about Labour loses seats to the SNP and not the tories winning in Scotland.
No excuse to vote for the tories.
They are holding 56/59
Only way is down
People dont want to leave the UK, so will be losing votes by wanting a re-run there
And people not happy with a few things SNP have done in Scotland (schools?)
Etc
Thanks! Is a coalition is looking likely? Those still seem like very high numbers for the Tories. Why is everyone so happy?
Both parties calling BS on the poll.
Feel like SNP must be slightly higher, if there are tossups. Feel betrayed by Labour voters going Tory to keep out SNP, stupid feckers. Could have made a fecking coalition.
Had to Google it.
Bout 11.
The expectation was that the Tories would end up with 360+ seats. To not even get a majority is awful on their part if it turns out to be true.
Because some people are a bit deluded about the coalition possibilities.
There really isn't much scope for any sort of "stable" coalition like there was in 2010. Largely because of huge disagreements on Brexit and Indyref.
Accurate though, right?
Whiskey. If it stays like this I'll get the champagne tomorrow.
Yes, watching on the live Youtube stream
The Tories have very few people they can form a coalition with. The Lib Dems won't touch them, so all they have is the ulster unionists. It might not be enough.
Because we are overwhelmingly left leaning and were braced for Labour losses and a Conservative majority of 50+
Instead of which we are heading for a hung parliament. With the high water mark being a Labour minority government and the low water mark a Conservative majority close to the pre-election one.
So glad I booked tomorrow off.
Absolutely. Had a little chuckle to myself.
Sinn Fein not backing a Labour government.
Aye. Nelson is a dump.
becuase its better then tories just having a majority and been able to do what ever they want! at least if this exit poll is right(which i'm still very doubtful about) they have to listen and compromise, thats a win considering what we though was going to happen(and probably still will)
