As results go, that's not too bad for them

Jeez... Emily Thornberry telling it like it is.
(For those not watching on BBC - says basically Labour unclear on Brexit and should now back a 2nd Ref, and should then campaign to Remain)

Lab edge it over CUK by 1 vote
Corbyn facing open rebellion.
> Do we know the shares in the North East yet? How close was the third seat.
I'd be amazed if the seats in the NE aren't 1 Brexit, 1 Lab, 1 LD.

> How did the Tories manage to come fourth in Hillingdon?
Four words: David, Cameron, Theresa and May.
So, messages from the parties tonight
BXP - The establishment has been defeated, and we must leave with no deal
LDs - The establishment (not us, we promise) has been defeated, and we must remain
LAB - Look, don't blame us ok, we did better than the Tories at least
Con - *sobs quietly* leave me along, alright?
Green - even though we came behind another remain party, clearly we are the voice of the people
UKIP - When you think about it, BXP just copied us so we really came top
CUK - I am proud to be a member of the LDs.
Winners by geographic area matter in a FPTP General Election though.

The Lib Dems are storming in certain seats, and not only in those as affluent as this one.

Surprised — I thought the LDs would sneak one.

I know, to have a Labour MEP must be a real downer.

Redbridge. Home of Mike Gapes' huge personal vote...Change UK not even registering a score in many of these.
> Quick question. Has Brexit come less than first anywhere? Everybody's going "Oooh, the Libs/Greens are doing well and Con/Lab badly", but this level of success for Brexit is quite large. If this was FPTP they'd annihilate the oposition.
Nige has been there done that with Ukip but still could not win a Westminster teeshirt.
The extreme right are on the march here in the UK. Be afraid, be very afraid!

Brexit about 43% in the North East?

This is different because it’s no longer an insurgency but a realignment. The two main parties are in big trouble.

Labour is holding onto much of its non-white vote.

Too little, too late - they would have got the seat if ChangeUK hadn't stood.

Pliad, BXP, LD(?), Lab?

Close but no cigar

That’s not Brian Monteith the former Tory MSP and Scotsman columnist?
UKIP 4% CUK 3%

What extreme right is that?
> Lib Dems getting 17% but no seat in the NE, quite a threshold for a "PR" system
why should 17% get a seat when there are only 3 seats in the NE?
> Brexit 39% in NE.
> Gain 2 seats
Labour on 19% in the NE is staggering.

Solid entertainment.
Brexit 240,056.
Lab 119,931
Lib Dems 104,330
Green 49,905
Con 42,395
> LD + GREEN higher than BXP at the moment according to BBC.
Shouldn't that be BXP+UKIP?
Thanks!!
> Nationwide now Brexit Party 31% LDs 20% Lab 17% Greens 12% Tories 7%

There's more rural than urban to come, so I'd expect BRX to be up slightly from there. Staggered by the low C figure.

BXP plus ukip = more than 50%.

Does that equate to the North East region for the referendum, where about 70% voted Leave? If so, it might point to low 30s for Brexit overall.
(Ducks, runs for the door...

They aren't, that's why they weren't included.
Brexit 31%
LD 20% (+12)
Lab 17% (-13)
Greens 12% (+4)
Con 7% (-12)
UKIP 4%
CHUK 3%

Yawn
You seem less bothered about the hard left and anti semitism.
