    Tough. On that argument you'd always have it.

    You need to be on BBC1 not BBC News if you're on BBC - no signing on BBC1

    🚨EXIT POLL🚨
    - Labour projected to win landslide election (410).
    - Tories face historic implosion, with no of MPs dropping to lowest level since 1830s (131)
    - Reform to pick up 13 MPs with an even bigger share of the vote than LibDems (61)
    - SNP to suffer massive defeat

    One thing I wanted to mention.

    If the Lib Dems plus SNP get more seats than the Tories could they keep them out of opposition?

    Nope. Sworn enemies

    Might be good for my betting there, depends on Reform votes.

    Blair level overall majority for Keir.

    That's not awful actually.

    Starmer lower on seats (and votes presumably) than Blair in either 1997 or 2001.

    Tories 30 seats lower, but it's Reform that's done that.

    Immediately interested in Reform seats. At 13 they must be on the cusp of a decent chunk more, within the perimeters of this poll.

    Yep, suggests Reform is on 18-19%. But, on the other hand, suggests they are quite a long way behind Conservatives.

    Ooh I was very close! Apart from the Faragasm. That’s surprising.

    Exit poll predicting no Corbyn, no Workers Party, no Gaza-friendly indies... although like an MRP, it won't be good at odd individual seats?

    That Lib Dem result indicates that they have probably made major advances in the South. If they can hold those seats, the Conservatives will have to work extremely hard ever to win another majority.
  • TOPPINGTOPPING Posts: 42,536
    My forecast of earlier:

    So that gives my base case as follows:

    Lab 38%, Cons 27%, Reform 10%, LibDems 14%, Green 5%.

    Baxtering gives a 188-seat Lab majority which is not too shabby.

    Cons party seats 121, Lab 419 which I have backed.
  • Andy_JSAndy_JS Posts: 31,489
    I'm annoyed because I had figures of Lab 407, Con 127, LD 70 this morning before the polls opened but decided not to post it in case it was wrong.

  • maxhmaxh Posts: 1,075
    Quite pleased with that on all levels except the Reform seats.

    Most of my bets were over 100 Con seats.

    Cons aren't wiped out which is good imo.

    I didn't believe Reform would deliver, I'll lose a bit on Reform seat numbers.

    So which MRP poll was the most accurate (assuming the exit poll is broadly correct)?
