Brexit Arms: Election Night Lock-In

Welcome to the Brexit Arms - it's going to be a stormy old night! We're about to be buffeted from right to left and back again with no real idea what the landscape will finally look like in the morning. All are welcome to weather the storm in the warmth and safety of the Arms - but please remember this a hospitable establishment so let's try and keep it that way.

We're kicking off the evening with our Back to the 70's theme night while we wait for the big main event to unfold. The juke box is loaded with all your 70's favourites. Feel free to dance round your handbags but please, no dancing on the tables…. this could be seen as having too much fun.

As always, we've got a nice big pot of PG Tips on the brew and Camp coffee by the mugfuls in addition to our usual alcoholic beverages.

On a serious note, we know that tonight's events are going to cause some upsets. With this in mind, the mint imperial bowls on the bar have been filled with Diocalms and we urge all our customers to make use of these. There should be enough to go round as long as nobody starts trying to stockpile. We simply cannot risk the need for plumbers to unblock our loos on Friday morning, as they could have been called out on strike by then.

Landladies on duty tonight will be:

20:00-22:00 Greenish (with Babychams, Cherry B's and vol au vents)
2200-midnight Twattage (with Classic Dmitris and cheeseboard)
Midnight-0200 Singing (with stiff brandies to calm the nerves, plus a selection of fresh nuts)
0200-0400 Hate (possibly with Albanian delicacies and a hangover cure)

We'd like to get the glitter ball turning with this absolute classic:

….fingers crossed similar scenes will abound in the Arms by the end of tonight. Enjoy!

P.s. When ordering drinks between 8pm and 10pm please supply your own drinks emojis. Thankyou!

Has any of the MPs who left the conservative party been reelected?

Does the Change party still exist?

BovaryX · 13/12/2019 04:39

Just drunk an entire bottle of English sparkling wine because... The Conservatives have gained Birmingham Northfield from Labour, where Richard Burden has represented the area since 1992

Grin Workington, Labour since 1918, has gone Conservative! This is looking like a landslide. Labour are a London party now. The Marx brothers have zero appeal beyond Watford

BooFuckingHoo2 · 13/12/2019 04:39

Sadly people I know who didn’t get the outcome they wanted are already crying “it’s unfair” and no doubt some on other threads here will be too.

I wish they would understand that ignoring democracy clearly doesn’t work, learn from that and come up with some new policies!

BovaryX · 13/12/2019 04:40

Newcastle under Lyme !

EpicShitDippedBatBiscuit · 13/12/2019 04:40

Friday the 13th... lucky after all. Who knew? 🙌

BovaryX · 13/12/2019 04:41

Labour since 1919! It’s gone Conservative

SingingLily · 13/12/2019 04:42

The Conservatives have gained Birmingham Northfield from Labour, where Richard Burden has represented the area since 1992.

Hurrah!

So far, none of the Tory MPs who left or were suspended from the Whip have been elected. No result in as yet for David Gauke but I hope he's ordered a taxi.

As for the Changey-Wotsits - no, they'll just be a footnote in the history records now. Remember when Heidi said they were going "to destroy the Tories"? Wonder how that's working out for her...

Walkingdeadfangirl · 13/12/2019 04:43

Con takes Kensington.

Suck it Sam Gyimah

Limer · 13/12/2019 04:43

OK, I'm officially totally out of my head on booze now!!!!! So many victories! And I didn't dare hope for any of them 6 hours ago!

I LOVE DEMOCRACY!!!!

I LOVE BRITAIN!!!!!

SingingLily · 13/12/2019 04:44

Sam Gyimah....

😭
OK, I'm not really.

Walkingdeadfangirl · 13/12/2019 04:44

Its such a big win I dont think claiming Tories have 'cheated' will hold any water. This is a national shift in politics.

BovaryX · 13/12/2019 04:46

They are incapable of self analysis. They continue to insult voters and they are paying the price for their arrogance

Walkingdeadfangirl · 13/12/2019 04:48

The UK voted to leave the EU. WE ARE GOING TO LEAVE THE EU.

SingingLily · 13/12/2019 04:50

I LOVE DEMOCRACY!!!!

I LOVE BRITAIN!!!!!*

Hear hear! And Walking is right. This is a turning point. It's 1979 all over again.

And sorry, folks, but I'm turning in. It's been a long day - but SOOO worth it.

Thank you, all of you, for your companionship and your humour and your strength and your support.

Back again tomorrow, knowing that the Great British Public have spoken and their word is final.

We are going to be a free independent sovereign nation once more!

Walkingdeadfangirl · 13/12/2019 04:52

An 18% swing from Lab to Con in Bassetlaw

That is record breaking MASSIVE

What the fuck has Corbyn done to destroy his party like this?

Walkingdeadfangirl · 13/12/2019 04:52

Goodnight Singing

DustyDiamond · 13/12/2019 04:54

It's really unbelievable

I can't believe how many areas have flipped from red to blue

(Gina Miller on BBC now 🙄)

She says the tactical voting didn't work Because Corbyn

And because the leavers were tactically voting too (who'd have thunk it?!) 🙄🙄

DustyDiamond · 13/12/2019 04:55

Glad Emma Dent Coad has been ousted!

DustyDiamond · 13/12/2019 04:56

I cant bloody sleep. anyone else?

Limer · 13/12/2019 05:01

This is what I dreamed of! Look at Yvette Cooper and her tiny majority! Who will be the leader now?

My fingers can barely hit the keys, I'm in total victory mode Grin

Walkingdeadfangirl · 13/12/2019 05:03

Anyone spoken to Coogan or Hugh Grant?

Limer · 13/12/2019 05:05

FINCHLEY!!!

I can't sleep either!!!! This is a game-changing result, and it's nearly Christmas..... I might try to survive on just alcohol and Pringles until the weekend Grin

Worst Labour result since Michael Foot!!!!!!!! Never thought I'd see the day!

Limer · 13/12/2019 05:06

CONSERVATIVES HAVE WON!!!!
