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.

I don't think 1 has anything to do with the other. This just tells you that May ran an awful campaign. Much like Hillary in November. She ran this campaign like a moron thinking all she had to do was show up on election day and win.

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.

Corbyn is the fucking worst. 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.

And he said directly that he will re-enter politics if there is a Corbyn government. 346 has great coverage, which I assume you are following.

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.

Well,they just noted UK Jews looking at their German ancestry to get an EU passport.

Corbyn has no future. He can't get out of his own way.

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?

The left hasn't just moved away from the Jews, they've moved against them.

Given that SNP is getting decimated, I think it's safe to say there won't be a 2nd Scottish referendum.

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.

And the SNP getting torched may get the Tories over the hump. Also the seats the Sinn Fein won.

I don't have any real idea, beyond the nakedly obvious, what in the hell is being said in this thread. Congratulations. :D

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.
