Poll: Exit Poll: UK General Election 2017 - Results discussion and OcUK Exit Poll - Closing 8th July

[Rilot]

How? What was the poll for Newcastle? It's a safe Labour seat.

It's still a swing to Labour though.

Not big enough. If exit poll was accurate then it should have been much higher.

Hung parliament? yup thanks Tories.

 

[Uther]

Sunderland lol

If you actually read what I post rather than make stuff up you'll realise you're agreeing with part of the point I'm making...

Nothing wrong with criticizing his position, it's the criticism aimed at the fact he said it that's the issue, while cheering Mays same statement about her position.

Anyway, I'm not interested in derailing another thread with you taking comments out of context for some sort of points scoring so I'll leave it at that.

I wasn't taking anything out of context, I made my objection quite clear... it seems you do have a habit with this whataboutery...

Exit polls are never that accurate in safe seats apparently. It's the marginals were they perform best.

 

[The Funktopus]

With campaigning such as this, how could they fail!?

 

[StriderX]

Sunderland disgusting D:

 

[No1newts]

Another reason to love the north east. **** off Cons from gods country!

oh dear

 

[Felon]

Go Sunderland

 

[StriderX]

Tory cuts to microphones man...

 

[CREATIVE!11]

Tell you truth, the right wing nuts going mental is probably most hilarious.

We all know Labour is not going to win, but watching all the "BUT DAT SOCIALISM DAT MARXISM!1!!" please stop reading drivel ridden right wing blogs online....

 

[Ahleckz]

Are the Monster Raving Looney Party still going on? Or, have we all got too serious?

 

[wildman]

Sunderland lol

crap footy team and even worst sound system..........

 

[Robbo]

Sunderland rocking the poverty spec microphones.

 

[Jokester]

So only a 2.1% swing rather and a 7%+ swing in Newcastle.

That has to be bad news for Labour?

Was already a strong Labour seat so had less "gains" to make. Would be wait for seats where it was closer before.

 

[Nitefly]

Sunderland speaking through a giant f-a-a-a-a-n-n-n.

 

[Christmas themed thank]

Not big enough. If exit poll was accurate then it should have been much higher.

Safe seats are never particularly good indicators.

 

[Dolph]

Only one so far. Exit polls won't get everything right.

1 - 0 against though.

2-0 now, one of the Sunderland constituencies just declared with a much smaller swing than the exit poll.

 

[dowie]

Just got in and seen the exit polls, who was it that claimed voting for the Lib Dems is a wasted vote? Seems like there is the possibility of a coalition again

(though the betting markets seems to be conflicting with the exit polls and are favouring a Conservative majority)
