We're half an hour into the usual time when the Tory seats come in thick and fast and it's not quite happened yet. Labour approaching 200 and still growing steadily with a 15 point lead.

To add to that, gains look like this:

Tories: -8
Labour: 21
 
My constituency supposedly within 3 votes. Holy shit. Glad I made the other half to get off her arse.
 
Labour gaining more than I thought they would. I assume once they both get to 200, then the Cons will start surging?
 
Strong and Stable Theresa May? More like weak and wobbly!!! She is now damaged goods. Throw in the dustbin!
Welcome and anoint Jeremy Corbyn who will run rings around the baboon known as Boris Johnson

There couldn't be a bigger contrast between these 2. I think Corbyn will be in power come end of the year.

Yeah...I'm waiting for this great tory build up of seats. I mean they'll be close no doubt but Labour keep taking seats.

By this point, even at 11pm I was expecting it to be around 215 Tories and 160 Labour
 
she was really all over the place. Can't imagine the humiliation she is feeling

 
Jesus, where is that?

Where's that? FPTP is ridiculous precisely because of this. And fair play for getting another vote out.
Fife North East. Unclear who it's between, was SNP, Lib Dems before, but Tories make it 3-way marginal. fecking hell I hate FPTP.
 
Lib Dems take Kingston from Conservatives.
 
Voter fatigue. All the young who voted Labour but still got Tory will stay at home.
potentially, but there's always been the factor of people voting for what they perceive to be the winning party, if labour close the gap by 30-40 seats and there's another election called the momentum will only continue id argue.
 
Incredible night but not as mad as Brexit or US election.
 
They don't believe in Westminster.

edit: unsure if they take the salary.

Thanks to all who answered.

My next question was on salary...they can't take a salary and not show up for work surely? That seems a bit two faced, although...politicians.
 
Boris as PM would be oddly fascinating. Elements of his party can't stand him and I remember Davidson threatening a Scottish Tory split.
 
My hope (best case) is to see a Cons + DUP <323.
A good base case is Cons + DUP <326.
A decent case is Cons minority.
