It was the same Curtice exit poll last time and predicted a hung parliament...

I was conparing the last exit poll to the current exit poll, and they are both very similar.
I never mentioned the TV...

Imagine how embarrassing and pathetic for our nation it would be if it was a hung parliament :rofl:

316 for the Tories in the 2015 exit poll, 314 this time. Labour much stronger this time.
This could be very close.

ok but surely safe to say there's no landslide, just whether she can get over the line of a small majority. Even if she does get a small majority she's finished isn't she?
Gone awfully quiet in here.

Deffo doesn't look like a landslide is possible, narrow majority looking like best case scenario for the Tories.
Not sure the Tories will try and dump her immediately if she does win a small majority but she won't be there long term.
If she doesn't win a majority I can't see how she can survive.

I still think the Tories will get a majority. Exit poll had my constituency turning from conservative to labour which I just don't buy. Would love to be wrong but I still think the Tories will do it with a bit to spare.

seems a fair assessment of a split nation, asked to vote between 2 parties wider apart than theyve been for many a year, with 2 leaders that have a habit of alienating people and no decent alternative
very very sad state of affairs, still a decent chance tories get a tiny overall majority as per before and not sure thats any better really
Boris Johnson currently 6/1 to be PM after the election sums up just how bad it is!!!
Even if the tories get a majority May's reputation in the party will be tarnished and I can see her going either under her own volition or at the hands of a very quick takeover bid

I reckon the old UKIP voters will swing it for the Tories.

If Corbyn and Crankie hold the balance of power I guess next years trip to Turnberry will be cancelled.....

What's happened in Sco? If SNP lose 22 as predicted, that's quite significant. Haven't seen the details, have the seats turned red?

Tories will still be the largest party and will form the next government, Brexit will go ahead but could get messy with Labour and SNP blocking.
May will stay on, but in my opinion should go and parliament will slowly grind to a halt if not careful.

Pundits up here thinking mainly blue so possibly a good night for Davidson but terrible for May, odd juxtaposition there. Voting is still all about the Union for many here, more than Brexit I think, Sturgeons call for Indy2 is looking like a bad call presently. 2015 was a one-off anti Cameron tirade up here and also kicking Labour for joining with Tories in the Better Together campaign, Indy2 was off the agenda then (already decided) so 56 of 59 seats painted a false picture of support for the real SNP I think rather than the left wing replacement of Scottish Labour SNP. From 8 MPs in 2010 to 32 in 2017 will be spun as good by SNP. Indyref2 will be shelved though.
Need to wait and see but politics gets very interesting when shock polls and results happen.
Squeaky bum time for many - Salmond, Robertson, Rudd to name a few.
