Thing is though those who voted for Labour knew they'd lose but the pound has dropped 10% this morning and this is the worst possible outcome for the country.

So stupid decisions made.

The stupid decision was calling an election in the first place and risking this happening instead of just getting on with things. It would have been the "strong and stable" thing to do.

FFS what rubbish. The pound fell only 2.7% and the stock market shot up 1.3%. It dropped 15% when Brexit won and people on here like you said that was a good thing as the pound was over valued.

Its still way above when we filed A50.
 
McDonnell reckons he could get his program passed as a minority, i.e. the Conservatives would vote for it.

Two thoughts on that. The Tories could vote for it on the basis they hope it fails and so can come back at a future election; the Tories could vote for it in order to move to the left again (they're going to have to offer tuition fees for free I think to regain any youth support).

Yes, stupid decision to hold the EU referendum, and to call an general election when you already having workable majority.

Even more stupid were the people who voted for the party that made these stupid decisions. .

Exactly this. Rank hypocrisy...

Not withstanding that the markets are merely reacting to the uncertainty, not the shift in strength between the Conservative and Labour parties.
 
Johnson, Davis, Hammond, Gove ... I do wonder where they are now.

In No. 10 or slinking around like snakes, silent just waiting and building up their allies.
 
"what was it about the 26 point poll lead in your favour that lead you to call an election?"

A good start, and its very pleasing to see May getting a flogging

id accept a new good tory leader with a less harsh brexit plan
May has to go though, even a 1 seat loss is a massive embarrassment to her

shame about cleggy and angus roberston, I dont want the scots to leave, but he was good in opposition at PMQ
luckily seems scots dont want independence so SNP punished for going on about it

my constituancy was the one that caused the Hung parliment :D
other southampton one was down to 31 votes!!!
