I had a suspicion this might be the outcome but not with such a huge majority!!
Exit poll predicting 368 seats! I really thought it would be closer ...

Not particularly surprising. Polls over the last couple of months have suggested this sadly.

I’m not. There’s a reason people are turning against Labour. Supporters need to open their eyes

Living in a bubble doesn't mean the bubble won't burst.

Turkeys voting for Christmas, goodness knows why there’s so many working class Tory voters? Hmm

I am sadly not surprised, but utterly depressed as a Labour voter.

I don't live in a bubble Grin I have friends who voted all sorts of ways!

I thought the polls said it was tighter that's all!

"Supporters need to open their eyes"... I think you mean the Tories there love. I can't cope with the current amount of stupidity in our population. Our country is a laughing stock and everytime we vote it gets worse.

I didn’t expect it to be so good for Conservatives

Only good thing from this election will be Corbyn going. At least McDonnell is being honest at this being disappointing

I’m not remotely surprised. Absolutely embarrassed to live in the UK right now. We deserve this shower of shit Tory government if we were actually so stupid and uncaring to vote them in. Sad.

I voted Tory for the country. Labour would have destroyed it. I’m working class. Not all Torys are in it for themselves. Don’t start with turkeys voting for Christmas crap either. Labour voters are in it for themselves because they wanted all the nice free stuff without thinking of the consequences. That’s selfish.

I'm shocked. So many selfish people.

@jellybean85 sorry OP! I wasn't really responding to you or your thread personally, just responding in general to the (predictable) outbursts on this forum with the multiple threads generally consisting of OMG! What has happened? etc.

You only have to check the front page of The Sun on election morning to know what the outcome will be.

We might as well commit mass suicide.

"We might as well commit mass suicide."

Ok look you can be disappointed but surely this is an over reaction! And a bit in bad taste?
