I wonder how accurate the Exit Poll will be? They got it massively wrong in 2015 and 2016 with Brexit.

I'm staying up for the Exit Poll then heading to bed. Nothing exciting happens until the early hours anyway ...

For the first time in 30 years instead of saying up watching it and booking the day after off to catch up on sleep I;m off to bed. I'm genuinely too scared to watch. The best result (as a Labor voter) is a potential hung parliament and a Labout/SNP coalition, and that is a very loose use of the word best as it will be a disaster for the country it that happens.

The one thing that is certain is that whatever happens Britain will not be stronger nor more stable tomorrow than it was 2 minths ago

It's only an exit poll I'm still pretty confident the tories will get an overall majority when the real results come in. The exit poll underestimated the tory vote in 2015. If the exit poll is right then it looks like a conservative/DUP coalition will form a government.

Most analysis I've seen has said that whilst a Labour win would cause a short term drop the markets would welcome a softer brexit and it would be better in the long run.

I don't think the currency markets like the sound of a hung parliament though.

The Conservatives normally rest their main case on economic competence and pragmatism. They lost that with their hard BREXIT policy. You can't argue Labour's policies are possibly bad for the economy while backing the single most destabilising economic policy for Britain ever.

""bottom squeak" moment for the Tories according to LBC's reporter broadcasting from TM's constituency...

Non of the Tory press are putting a positive spin or particularly brave face in the exit poll.

TM must be shitting hersekf, even if the tories get a majority it will still be seen as aa failure

Possibly people also heard the message that the Tories have borrowed more than any Labour government, all the while making everyone live through austerity.

Bang on

That assumes that most people don't know the differences between debt and deficit. I think most swing voters actually do.

"Sunderland, labour won

It is one of their safest seats.

What's interesting though is the 3% swing to the conservatives whereas tge exit poll predicted a 3% swing towards Labour

So the exit poll is about as accurate as it was 2 years ago

No that would be the country fucked, if it happened.

The currency exchanges dont like the thought of corbyn

May will go post election unless a landslide happens.

She's stubborn though.

Apparently, boris will challenge.

That would change the Conservatives from being distasteful to being totally toxic.

Exit polls suggested a much bigger swing for Labour in Newcastle and Sunderland. Tories have done better than expected there. Must be a positive sign for the tories in more marginal seats.

Agree. It's an early positive sign for Conservatives and suggests the exit poll has underestimated the tory vote.

Wouldn't think so on the exit polls, but she will probably not be party leader at the next election. Assuming they have enough to make a government, expect her to be gone in year 3, after Brexit but in time to build up new candidate for next election.

The results so far would be indicate a Conservative win by 50 to 100 overall majority.

I still think the likely result will Conservative win but about the same number of seats as now. Possibility loose some and may have to do a deal with DUP.

That was to be expected.

I think Labour made a mistake not accepting the tactical vote options that other parties offered them. Local party members were threatened with expulsion or suspension for doing local deals.
