Not strictly true. There will be 7 Sinn Fein MP's who wont take their seats so will never vote against or for the ruling government. The key word being against. How ever small the majority is with the DUP/Tory alliance one thing they will never have is 7 opposition MP's voting against them and...

You dismiss Dan Hodges as someone that the youth could learn from then?

Learn from someone who describes himself as "tribal neo-Blairite" and said "If UKIP break 6% at the next election I'll streak naked down Whitehall in a Nigel Farage mask whilst singing Land of Hope and Glory", has quite and rejoined the labour party several times depending which way the wind is...

Yep. The Tories are going to have to make some concessions to form an alliance with the DUP. Ironically if the likely concessions had have been policy in the first place, which wouldn't have been unreasonable, she wouldn't be in this mess now. She paid too much attention to the shouty out means...

Ahh. Grendull thinks a general election is a personality contest not a policy contest. Bless

Good job you didn't do a Paddy and offer to eat your hat.

Darlington a big blow for May. It's looking more and more like she's royaly fucked up. Not as bad as the exit polls were suggesting but she may well struggle to remain Tory leader. Can't see her leading another general election, she'll be gone before the next one as she's demonstrated a complete...

If the exit polls are anywhere near correct the Tories could do a lot worse than May going and Ruth Davidson becoming leader. She's always impressed me personally and is probably the best ambassador the Tory party has. Certainly a far better prospect than Boris or anyone else prominent in the...

She's back! Nothing like it did after the referendum you gloated about as being a success.

That's a shock.

Well if the exit polls are correct it looks like my prediction that the Tories would make gains in Scotland are correct.

Have you gone to bed? Putting your head down or keeping it down?

Amber Rudd might be in trouble in Hastings apparently.

He's on a six figure salary and doesn't want to pay a fairer share of taxes.

Might actually be for the best. At least brexit will be a true cross representation of the country and I think the results would show that Mays hard brexit is not widely accepted.

How long have I been telling you not to pay attention to Grendull ;)

The exit polls aren't looking good for Tories. Looks like May has made a boo boo.

Well. Voted Labour for only the second time in my life (that's all elections not just general) last time being 1997 so I guess it was an anniversary year anyway ;) Polling station was the busiest I've seen it for a general election so hopefully national turnout will be high which could just...

I wasn't. I've only voted labour once in my life and that was Tony Blair's first election. Voted Lib Dem once and Green once. Aside from that I've pretty much always been a Tory voter and was fully planning to do so again this time. Until I started reading the manifestos a couple of days ago.

That's horrendous. They should have at least stayed in their dressing room. Unbelievable that they were carrying on warming up while the minutes silence was going on. So disrespectful. Fair play to the loan Saudi player who took part. Probably get stoned when he gets home for that.
