Not having a go at you - its the CCHQ incompetents which have let the likes of you, DH and TP down.
In 2015 it was spot on.
This time it was showing the Tories up 6%ish, and they thought, well that's us home and hosed, not realising Labour might be up 10%
I'm still in a sense of shock and denial that the Labour vote went up that much.0 -
Who is dressing it up as not bad? It's bloody terrible!TheValiant said:I can't believe some people here are trying to dress up the Conservative result as not all that bad.
Theresa May has gone backwards. She had 330 seats going into this election, and was expected to get a majority of 100. She's managed to turn a slender, but workable majority into a minority situation. She's likely to be less than 320 and there will need to be a deal with the DUP to get legislation through. As to getting her extra two years, I doubt the parliament will last to 2022. Every by-election loss will reduce her minority further and further over the next few years. Ken Clarke will demand anything he wants, and have to be dealt with. It's a disaster for her. Anna Soubry is right. Theresa May should announce her intention to go. This morning.0 -

Could we have a dummy PM for a bit to get around the constitutional problems?atia2 said:
I think this is the only technical possibility. The Tories can't elect (or, if it were possible, select) a new leader before a new ministry is formed. Surely she must be next PM, if only for a few weeks.stjohn said:May is not far off evens to be next PM. I think she will carry on - because she should.
Of course her ambitious colleagues are falling over themselves to ,"offer their services to the country". But she stood on a mandate to deliver BREXIT and the electorate have given her the most votes. So she stood stand and deliver.
I'm not arguing through my pocket. I'm trying to interpret the GBP's thinking. She may well want to walk away - but this is her moment in history. To navigate the British people through BREXIT.
I've talked myself around. May for next PM at 1.89.
I'm on!

Tories need to get their heads down and deal with Brexit now. GE can be called after that in 2019. They can probably limp on until then.0 -

And why would anyone believe the economy would collapse if they voted for Corbyn.
After all the economy didn't collapse when Leave won even though the establishment said it would.
Project Fear is no longer believed.
Osborne orchestrated a vast wealth transfer from the young to the old and now the young have struck back.
And who can blame them ?

I do wonder what impact this will have on the economy despite people not believing Project Fear previously. I was a Leaver and never believed they hype around this.
However, being in the top 5% of earners (although not what I'd consider rich as an almost single-income household) I'd expect to get hit hard by any possible future Labour government. We were planning an extension and various other items of spending - they are highly likely to be put on hold with this uncertainty. I'm not going to take any unnecessary risks knowing what a mess Labour would put the economy in. I'm very worried.
Young voters unfortunately have no idea what a proper socialist government would be like. I don't think our prosperity has come from the EU but more down to not having a proper socialist government in almost 40 years.0 -
Have to say I think the country is going to be a bit baffled by May resigning. We just had an election fronted by various leaders .... yet now immediately after we've got some randomer who didn't even take part in the election coming in as PM?

Many thanks for that Mr Sid - fascinating.El_Sid said:
Stoke seat was split in 1950, but if you count South and then Stoke before it, the only time it has ever gone blue was in 1931 when Oswald Mosley split the Labour vote (his wife had previously held it for Labour but they fell out with Labour and created the New Party - the fascism came later). So a Canterbury kind of result.SimonStClare said:

I was a big Boris fan but I think he has lost his shine. He won in London last in 2012 and a lot has changed since then. London is lost to him now as a Leaver. I also don't think Scotland would look fairly on him either. It has to be someone who can appeal to all parts of the country and I think Ruth would be it. Shame she can't run.HYUFD said:

I'm a Boris fan but he is too Marmite and not taken seriously enough at home or abroad. Sounds odd to say after May, but as proven by her stonking poll ratings *before* the election, someone steady/boring (and yes, strong and stable!) would be popular with the country.HYUFD said:

Can CON just govern on their own? Without SF 322 is a majority. Why not just hold the Queen's speech.

I doubt the DUP will vote them down even if there is no agreement with them - they just did well and they will not provoke a UK election if they think Corbyn will win.
