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

[The Artfull Bodger]

You're not comparing like with like.

What's next, a ban on falconry?

What's not comparing like for like, you stated that dogs ripping fox's apart happens in nature everyday, I'm saying humans in nature kill other humans or are we so detached from the natural world we don't have a nature anymore. Why do we matter in the grand scheme of things more than a fox? Humans do more damage to the natural order of things than any fox!

Well May has lasted longer than Cameron on results morning, he quit at ~0815!

Odds on out before midday?

 

[Robi]

Tory voters really do live in an alternative reality don't they? It's quite frankly hilarious.

 

[Rilot]

Nah, she won't resign

you know, I doubt she will quit.. she's too far up her own ... to do so.

Whoever voted for Corbyn shame on you!!

You don’t get it do you. May gambled and lost on how popular she thought she and her policy was.

 

[Scrutinize]

As do their MPs.

And I am a die hard Tory but wouldn't and didn't vote for them this time.

May, Rudd etc are so out of touch now it's crazy.

 

[Phreaky]

Remember guys that Sinn Fein won't take their seats in the house and so with the Conservative's projected 319 they still have a majority.

Err might want to check the maths on that guv...

 

[Christmas themed thank]

It's not possible for them. There is no combination that allows them to do that.

The Labour Party just said they would do it, themselves. But again, they can't. Bonkers.

 

[scorza]

Sorry but you condem Corbyn due to having highly tenuous association with NI terrorist groups, yet you would accept a party that has direct associations with it via its members and member's friends and relatives plus funding of paramilitary operations in coalition.

DUP are totally against the IRA. Completely different side politically.

The Labour Party just said they would do it, themselves. But again, they can't. Bonkers.

Since when has reality ever played a part in Comrade Corbyn's political views?

 

[icehot]

Whoever voted for Corbyn shame on you!!

He's a weak leader determined to raid the bank and borrow up to 250 billion on top of his 'costed' manifesto.

Did we learn nothing from the last Labour government?

Let the younger generation (which I'm also part of) Labour voters find out how nothing for them will change. Personally too many people think a change in colour controlling the country will actually determine their future..... hey ho.

 

[PapaLazaru]

As do their MPs.

Same.

 

[icehot]

You don’t get it do you. May gambled and lost on how popular she thought she and her policy was.

To be fair, May didnt have a policy/manifesto until the general election..... and she cocked it up big time.

 

[Rilot]

Err might want to check the maths on that guv...

Sorry, I'm half asleep. So, they need 326 for a majority, leaving 324 in opposition. If there is only 317 in opposition she only needs 319 seats.

Or am I adding it up wrong?

 

[Azza]

As I said before surely it's going to be extremely hard for the Con to push things through, even if they strike some amazing deal with the DUP. Never mind the opposition from the other party MPs, there are so many Con MPs who have knives at the ready to stab in the back or front they won't care.

 

[TJM]

Yea, guess you havent seen the news:

I have seen it and it makes no difference to my point. Young people don't want to lose their rights as Europeans and endure a recession just to increase sovereignty levels to 110% or some other nonsense. May's Brexit offers them nothing and voting against her party was the rational thing to do.

 

[Nitefly]

Noooooo!! After all the excitement last night Rudd DIDN'T go?!?

#fail

 

[Azza]

Oh for **** sake. Get this man off the TV.

650 seats, minus the 7 SF = 643. Majority would be minimum 322 vs 321

So Labour LOSE the election and corbyn fist pumps the air waving at the crowd like hes won it
