Gotcha. Thanks. Here in the States the last time a party leader lost his/her seat was when the Republicans targeted the Democratic Senate Majority Leader's seat. It was a big deal at the time.

Not definite as none of the 650 seats have declared yet. But, May called the election to increase her slim majority so she could effectively cancel out any rebels over Brexit. Unless she outperforms the exit poll, which has been relatively close since 1992, she will have failed in this

Even if the Tories overperform after this, we did it. We made the fuckers bleed, and they'll hopefully be too busy backstabbing each other to go after the rest of us.
