So Swindon North even worse than the exit poll? Shit. Better in areas that won't help a Tory majority, worse in areas it very well would have helped them.

Not necessarily. Labour doing well in safe Tory seats is bad news for them. Wasted votes.

Well, first marginal is key to all this, but as North Swindon is right next to a seat which has been marginal not too long ago, and I cannot see why South Swindon would react all that differently in terms of surging Labour (and I'm told the Tory Council is pretty crap), then I think it likely they are doing well there too.
No, it was the turning point. You are and were completely blind to how toxic it is for us to suggest that the homes people have worked hard for over their whole lives are going to be confiscated because the person dared to fall ill.
It is a complete disaster policy it was spotted immediately by those of us in the Cameroon camp, but not your lot and you still deny the reality even though there is hard evidence of the Lab -> UKIP voters aren't turning out for us in places where homes have high values.
If Tories are doing better in safe Labour seats and Labour are doing better in safe Tory seats... then we have a massive increase in marginal seats for the election after.
'Please, please, please tell me it is going to be ok'
This lot were sure of a majority and that the exit poll was wrong five seconds ago If they are bricking it off the back of Swindon North then they basically know nothing.
Something extraordionary going on here. The Brexit election which did not even dare speak its name, where everyone mocked the LD's for making it a central plank - and now a swing to Labour seems to be exactly mapped on to the remain areas, largely, apparently by young voters who didn't turn out for the referendum.

Clarke says Labour doing worse than national polls in Leave voting North and Midlands, Labour doing better than national polls in more Remain voting London and South
Absolutely - any Tory gain in England must be suspect, given the exit poll expects big Tory gains in Scotland, meaning there must be lots of losses and not main gains in England.

Lab +5.8
Con +10
Majority: 31.9% for Sharon Hodgson
So not all that important/relevant then.
If I were forced to guess right now, I'd say Jeremy Corbyn is forming the next government.
That is her fate.
Exit poll the worst in history ......
NOM a certainty .....

In which case, no one knows what's going to happen.
