Apparently running the electoral equivalent of a "prevent defense" is a bad idea. Should've learned that from Hillary 8 months ago... It's also a bad idea to call for tyrannical controls of the Internet 72 hours before people vote. Corbyn is a Caller Bob, but May is getting what she deserves. |

May was doomed when the Libyans who blew so much shit up came in while she was Home Secretary. Here's hoping Corbyn can put together a coalition. Even if he can't, no way does May stay on as Prime Minister. The "solid, reliable" Tories will be on their third leader in 16 months. |

He's a real antisemite who fucking worships Hezbollah and Hamas. I would be a happy man if someone blew off his head. I don't mind Labour, but I have real issues with a Labour led by him. |

So the exit poll in all 3 seats called was off by a 5-7% swing. If that holds on the other seats remaining, then May survives with a majority. Time will tell if the exit poll is correct or not. If that trend holds, Tories have a 60 seat majority instead of being 12 shy as the exit poll suggests. If we learned anything from Brexit, it's that UK exit polls are notoriously wrong. If so, I'll have egg on my face for putting Teresa May in the Douchebag section too early. |

I can't believe the Tories grabbed an SNP seat...but I saw some Labour seats where the margins are stronger than the last election. Close one so far. |

As Corbyn is rising, a lot of my friends in Israel are placing odds on which city the UK Jews will end up moving to as Corbyn's Labour is more anti-Jew than most alt-righters. |

I can say that the UK would not be a good place to be a Jew under a Corbyn government. He harkens to the early 20th century style of anti-semitism while also cozying up with Hamas and Hezbollah. |

BBC forecasts Conservatives to hold 322 seats, which if Sinn Fein sits out (as they usually do) would possibly grant them a majority. |

The Left has moved away from Jews and has been pandering to Muslims for obvious demographic reasons. Question, might the Lib Dems try to be a kingmaker again with the Conservatives? |

It's my love of soccer and happiness at seeing liberals that aren't complete idiots. Well they probably are, but they're at least doing better than expected. |

Well my already immense respect for KD has grown exponentially based on what he has posted in this thread. I have grown up on the Economist nipple to the point where I was supposed to move to London. To see others having the same love of the British, well it warms my heart. I hate soccer, but I love cricket. |
