Regardless of who you voted for I wondered what you predict the result will be?

My guess is 115 seat conservative majority.

I reckon a 65 seat Tory majority, but I don't think your prediction is outside the margin of error either. Grin

Cheers Jassy, will be interesting to see how it turns out.

Oh god a Tory majority 🙈

Want2bSupermum · 08/06/2017 00:38

I think it will be close. This election has left me feeling deflated with moments of despair. We really need to think about the politicians who end up as leaders. TM and JC are both awful. What we are voting for is the lesser of two evils.

I hope DA gets the medical attention she needs. Something isn't right there. Overall I hope both parties take a good look at themselves after this and start promoting their best leaders and not the loon and the wet fish we have now.

Just think if this election had been between Frank Field and Jacob Rees Mogg. That would have been a very tough choice for all the right reasons.

SerfTerf · 08/06/2017 00:41

I think it will be a hung parliament with much horse trading to follow.

OhTheRoses · 08/06/2017 00:48

Icallbullshit3 · 08/06/2017 00:49

Labour for the win. Just.

OliviaPopeRules · 08/06/2017 08:05

Want2bSupermum Now that would be an interesting election!

Tory majority. Not sure of the numbers but the Dimblebot will call it at 1 second past 10pm as he did last time.

Dream result - SNP decimated in Scotland by all other parties. We can but dream.

Ugh. Only if you're a Brexit super fan. JRM would be an awful prospect.

I suspect there will be a Tory majority overall, and SNP in Scotland, which will mean everything is up in the air yet again.

ginghambox · 08/06/2017 08:19

Conservative 74 majority.

TheNaze73 · 08/06/2017 08:42

Hung parliament

makeourfuture · 08/06/2017 08:45

Today hope turns into reality.

Labour!

ShatnersWig · 08/06/2017 08:46

I would like a hung Parliament. A week ago I thought it was quite possible.

Now? Tory majority of in the region of 60 seats.

RangeTesKopeks · 08/06/2017 10:34

Ooh home come you changed your mind Shatner?

RangeTesKopeks · 08/06/2017 10:35

*how come you

Urgh Jacob Rees Mogg.

Why would it be a tough choice? I'd definitely prefer anyone to Jacob Rees Mogg.

NeoNeoClassical · 08/06/2017 10:38

I think I'll breathe a big sigh of relief and have a nice merlot from my new mug.

A slim majority would be good for the country.

Tory majority of 63

impossibledreams · 08/06/2017 10:41

I'd like to see a Conservative majority with a reduction in SNP in Scotland and resurgence of Lib Dems.

Labour I'll take or leave - some good policy in their manifesto but unconvinced by their ability to deliver any of it without royally fucking something else up.
