I dance to the sweet tune of your failure so I'm never gonna stop fucking with you.

Continue to get confused and frustrated with me as I dance to your anger.

As I expect nothing more from ya you stupid runt!


The only thing I care is Results and right now I'm not hoping until it's 100% clear there is going to be a hung parliament with no chance of the Tories getting backed up to form a coalition/minority. Which isn't going to happen.

ill be honest with you lads i was delighted to have been wrong as hell about this election and was feeling excited about labour and i will not be happy if this exit poll is very wrong

You're not going to be happy in a few hours so best prepare for that.

Always the worst way.

But even with +15 she's still down seats from the current parliament. That's incredibly Bad for Theresa May, especially given the narrative of the Landslide Tory Victory to Crush Saboteurs.

Eh, getting the results +/- 15 seats isn't bad. They should just be reported as ranges, as numbers that have uncertainty, instead of point estimates.

this is a poison chalice if I've ever seen one. No-one who resides over brexit and the accompanying recession is going to survive the next election. Make the tories own their monster.
Wouldn't any coalition with Labour resulting in a government also be very likely to require another referendum as a condition? I mean Labour + SNP is not enough, the LibDems would also have to form the coalition and they're certain to demand that, aren't they?

I mean, "hung parliament, coalition with LibDems" is pretty much the only scenario where UK might have been able to weasel out of Brexit (and that goes for a coalition with the Tories as well). If you're firmly in the Remain camp isn't this basically the best possible result?
