Westministenders: Strong and Stable Theresa Date with Destiny

[RedToothBrush]

WELLLLL

Its just before 2.00am.

So far its the YouGov model all the way. Still a long way to go but, the Cons are not getting the top of their target list and Labour are doing very well in seats they just 'shouldn't be'.

Corbyn is now favourite to take the poison chalice of Brexit, but they may not be the largest party yet.

This is looking right now like 1974 not 1983.

May's potted regardless. I look forward to her resignation speech. Its still entirely possible that our next government is a Tory Minority under another leader.

The LDs are having a rough night so far. They are loosing deposits all over the place as they are squeezed out. But they still might hold the balance of power yet. Though they are pledged not to go into coalition.

Another election in the autumn? Brexit delayed and going soft and squishy?

Third recount? Bloody hell!

Ah ok, if course it would be unclear and contradictory!

YouGov model holding up with 1/4 of the results in!

I don't think officially confirmed in Leeds NW no. I thought it had been but doesn't appear to be.

Red, I agree about the NHS.

Walsall North may go tory.

What if we go to straws in Hastings?

Sorry for the ignorant question but what's the new forecast / better result for the Tories actually based on?

Cons gain Southport from LDs

LemonSalad BBC revises exit poll, forecasting Tories to get 322 seats
The BBC has now updated its exit poll, and converted it into a forecast.

Southport also predicted by YouGov.

YouGov on FIRE!

I guess the YouGov election night party is going with a swing

ITV News‏*@itvnews*

LAB Gain Ipswich

BEN GUMMER

Potted.

New forecast is based on results so far. Modelled from that.

Thanks woman and Red.

East Dun to LD, a la YouGov again.

The You Gov bods will be strutting around feeling very happy with their lot. As for the other pollsters....I imagine they won't be feeling so chipper.

Lib dems retake dumbartshire east

Lord Ashcroft‏*@LordAshcroft* 2m
BBC has raised the forecast of Tory seats from 314 to 322. A majority after deducting Sinn Fein and Speakers is 321.

Is this a hint of going alone.

Here comes the Maybot!!!

Decisive win for Jo Swinson

Is Theresa wearing that same red dress? That she wore on Jeremy paxman?

Clegg looks down.
Sad moment in a way, but I think he was ready to go.

I don't think tonight is the night to unveil a new frock - unless it's of the sack cloth/hair shirt variety.

I have bottomless contempt for Kezia Dugdale over that Pretty.
