If the SNP take 50+ seats then that might be an indication that an independence vote is winnable this time.
Hope so! If just minority of the UK can avoid the Johnson/Cummings shit show that will be a small victory!

If they do - they will find themselves smaller than the LibDems - and/or another centre left social democrat party will arise.I would be careful, they may feel they need to move even further left!
Channel 4.FFS! And to compound it, the BBC have Stanley Johnson and Kathryn Ryan offering political analysis.
Going to be a long night.

I called a huge majority a couple of weeks back after my travels but was hoping some may come to their senses once at the booth, seems not.
Smells like a bit of gaming perhaps to frighten more Labour voters to go out and vote for Labour candidates or make Tory voters not bother voting because they think it is in the bag and their vote will not make a difference.
The exit poll is pure speculation. No one asked me what I voted as I left the Polling station and if they had I would not have told them. Cannot see how anyone can extrapolate those sort of figures from whatever data they have managed to accumulate.

Somewhat of an understatement.If confirmed the worst result in modern times for Labour. I guess Jezzer wasn’t that popular.
191 wouldn't be the worst, and the tories were down to 165 in 97.
What does that say about Corbyn?Five fvcking years and a preening disgraced ex-minister, soon to resume as Home Sec for five fvcking years. Wonderful. Night all.
Somewhat of an understatement.
Considering the shower that was the last government, it is unbelievable that the Labour Party have managed to alienate so many of their core voters.
Labour must shift to the centre.

If those results were true then from a Scotland only context I'd be delighted, but the context for the UK as a whole would be a disaster.
Corbyn will have delivered the Brexit he wanted though! Pr1ck.
Perhaps those delusional Corbyn fans might start believing what we've been telling them now though i.e. that Corbyn is a disaster for the Labour party and for the UK. Suspect they'll still be coming up with excuses for why it isn't his fault though!
