Exit Polls
Not looking good from 'Exit polls'
Hopefully people lie when asked who they voted for on way out!
Gonna stop up for a while, & hopefully find the polls are wrong again!!
Don't want to wake up in the morning & find they are almost correct!
Corbyn (or Corbett as has been called today), will be an absolute disaster for this country, along with his sidekicks Abbot & McDonnell.

Re: Exit Polls
Don't forget 2015 exit poll called Tories at 316 seats (compared with 314 tonight) but they ended up with 331.

Sincerely hope you're right mate....
From previous posts, I gather that you are about 50yrs younger than me....
So, have you not been taken in by Corbett's promises of everything free for your generation?

No because I've seen the truth, he doesn't plan free tuition he's already so as he only plans to cap it to £6000, i did want to vote UKIP but for some reason my local representative was not on the voting form, asked for another form and again the UKIP rep wasn't on any Of the forms, afew of my mates from different areas have had the same problem, I complained about this and got told if I don't like it don't vote so I had to pick Tory

Re: Exit Polls
Exit poll results may not be as accurate as shown. Labour holds are not as big as predicted. UKIP voters voting Conservative

Re: Exit Polls
Those who doubte that Corbyn would get his , message across are ignoring the impact of Sanders in the US. It's about 10:30 pip emma here, and CBCis posting results as they come in; Hyndburn stays Labour, and some safe Tory seats are really close. And while you guys are clutching at straws, the results for the Tories could be worse than predicted. Whatever ... May blew it. It's refreshing to see rank political opportunism get a good punce in the ass.

Re: Exit Polls
Well. This hasnt worked out well.
Labour bought votes with with monopoly money. Promised everything to students and others, but as they would never get in dont have to pay up.
DUP will make it work.

Re: Exit Polls
Looks very much to me, that Corbyn promised many things that COULD NOT,be afforded, knowing full well he was not going to be elected, many young people registered and naively voted Labour, and foolishly have wrecked the country for themselves, Well yeh reap what yeh sow.

Re: Exit Polls
Latest reading it's hung, only an alliance with DUP can give the tories a majority & the rumours doing the rounds that many tory mp's will not back May so possibly another leadership change.
Election 2017: Tory politicians WITHDRAW support for Theresa May | Politics | News | Express.co.uk
I didn't really trust Maybe, she was making all the right noises but no action & as to alienating the pensioners & those against the hunt were guaranteed vote losers ...... Not really beneficial to the Brexit cause or the stability of the UK for that matter.

Re: Exit Polls
At the end of the day TM's not an elected prime minister, hell she's not even an elected leader of her own party - she's only there by default, she gambled & it's backfired big time - well done Theresa, good job

Re: Exit Polls
Well, what a disappointment.
I feel sure that JCJunker and his crew are rubbing their hands in glee right now.
The electorate of this country have weakened the position for negotiation of a deal.
A hung Parliament is a bad situation when we are going into fiery negotiations.
There are no crumbs of comfort this morning.
Even GJ got re-elected.
The folk around here must have spit for brains.
He has done nothing for us, will do nothing for us and it seems his 95% jibe was close to the mark.
