I can't help but feel like that's a best-case scenario, given how incompetent the Tories have been and the apparent Labour momentum. Is that wrong?

With the current outcome we'll see a Tory/UUP/DUP coalition that JUST scrapes to a majority, I think.

She also called it to reset the 5 year timer on elections so that they can gently caress around ruining poo poo after Brexit starts. 3 years of unopposed Tory looting and austerity.
Now gone hopefully.

If Bambos takes out Burrows in Enfield Southgate I might cry.

He had a 3-4000 strong win last go round, almost always been Tory, and my dad and I have been out campaigning there. If we've done it that will be so, so fantastic.

If MPs are only supposed to represent 50,000 people or whatever and the population keeps growing, shouldn't Westminster have run out of office space a long time ago?
