Election night 2019 / aftermath

[twotone]

Ian Murray Lab with a 15k majority Edinburgh South is '50-50' to win the seat, astonishing.

What a scumbag Farage is. BBC shouldn't be pandering to him given they'll get no seats and very little of the vote.

Johnson will give him a peerage. He’s not going to go away, he’s going to be around to make sure the ERG push for total Brexit which is still a major risk.

And the purpose of the hi viz jackets is?

 

[tuga]

The Iron Curtain has fallen... Is it me or the BBC is a wee bit biased?

 

[Alex S]

Any crumbling of the red wall is 95% Brexit and 5% Islington.

Some quotes from Labour folks on the lines that Corbyn could win the next GE as it won't be about Brexit!

ROFLMAO

I actually respect Murray- he’s been a great Labour MP. I hope Paul Sweeney keeps his seat in Glasgow.

Still early doors and I am never convinced by the smart arse pollsters but if they are right then, as I have said before, Labour will have let a succession of poor Tory governments off the hook. Labour needs to move to the centre ground towards the conservative uk electorate in order to become electable again - simples.

I'll be surprised if he does lose his seat. If he does it'd likely mean there would be no Labour MP's in Scotland.

 

[Alex S]

Anyway, Corbyn will need to go but the policy needs to remain the same.

 

[Stunsworth]

Leigh predicted as too close to call. That’s astonishing bad for Labour.

If that exit poll is correct I think Labour will be wiped out up here, probably the Lib Dems will keep two seats and maybe one each for the tories and labour.

The markets are going mental!

Speculators with the country at heart. Are you really that excited?

I really want the Tories driven out of Scotland.

Yep, the UK don’t want the hard left, it really is that simple.

Me too mate, I'm full on independent now and, as I keep saying, if I'm thinking along those lines then the line has been crossed up here.

There’s going to be some humongous fortunes made by a few. Wartime levels of economic disruption are now coming down the pipe and the spivs will cash in. I would not want to be supporting a family from a job in the automotive industry right now.

 

[ff1d1l]

At least we won’t end up like Venezuela under Corbyn.

No, we'll end up like Venezuela's poor relation under the johnson.

 

[SteveG]

Predictions are that Dennis Skinner is going to lose his seat to the Tories.

I heard very different when speaking face to face with people. The NHS & policing were the top priorities with many claiming they had lost interest in Brexit. 40 new hospitals (right) & claims of increased staff & doctors fed by Santa Claus was a gift to tempting to resist & felt Corbyn would bankrupt the country for future generations. I'm just saying what we heard in the real world rather than on polls or social media sites.

I'd suggest you download the google maps app as you have clearly been canvassing in a different country.
