    I don't know why Conservatives thought they'd win anything in London. They've spent the last year deriding it.

    JC + SNP might be enough though. At least for a minority government.

    What does Farron do?

    Part of me will be fascinated by how JC does if he becomes PM. I suspect it will be a car crash.

    Corbyn PM for about three months?

    If it's any consolation to my right-wing friends there's nothing that'll be more infuriating to Juncker and the rest of the unlucky people lumbered with negotiating a Brexit agreement than having no idea if the people they're talking to will still be in office in 3 weeks time.

    The side which made the most promises of the good time to come did best.

    Britain is now dominated by the 'I want, I want, I want' mentality.

    And its all going to end in disaster very soon.

    I wish Theresa May had read PB when we were talking about Brexit for the 60%. We needed to discard each of the 20% extreme Brexit/Remain voters and deliver Brexit for the middle 60%. Instead Theresa went for a narrow hard Brexit policy and now we're in the shit.
