Even Blair got a landslide

No way back for Corbyn if that prediction is at all accurate.

That's dismal.

Disaster for Labour.
I think the party will now slide back to a Blairite political vehicle which I would find it difficult to vote for. .

Great night for tories and SNP.
Decent for Sinn Fein and SDLP.
Worrying for DUP (when will politicians learn that getting in to bed with the tories never ends well?)
Disaster for Labour, Lib dems.

which policies do you think are years behind? Yes, they obviously haven't resonated but that doesn't mean they're outdated.

I think they are just not thought through correctly and economically viable in people’s eyes and that is their challenge. The indecision and lack of clarity on Europe was also going to be a problem, people didn’t know exactly what they were going to be given a further vote on so sadly, it harms their credibility to lead.

I think the lack of clarity was the biggest issue, especially as it appears Labour failed to switch focus away from Brexit.

On reflection...
A devastating night for Labour. It’s biggest mistake was it’s call on Brexit. I have always been uncomfortable in the notion of not respecting democracy (check my posts if you don’t believe me) and it appears that the electorate want Brexit. Our members wanted to remain... but our members and people that vote for us are not the same.
We have our policies generally right. They aren’t ‘going back to the 70’s’ but actually sensible and progressive - but it didn’t cut through the Brexit chatter in the end.
Corbyn is going - the right decision really, but the next leader has to take on the progressive policies - they shouldn’t have the baggage that he had (although whoever it is I’m sure some will be found by the press)

Let’s hope we haven’t voted for the greatest act of sadomasochism the UK (minus Scotland) has ever seen.

And so the SNP have secured nearly half the Scottish vote while Sinn Fein take another DUP seat and Alliance take a unionist stronghold. Nothing to worry about there then because Boris’ll sort it all out.

People in some of the poorest parts of the country have put their trust in Boris and the party that has shafted them for a decade. All kosher, Boris will be dishing out unrivalled prosperity from the Brexit dividend.

Corbyn has at least admitted he’ll be gone next time. Locally at least, voting did make some difference. The SNP are the real winners today.

Proves they should have pushed for a referendum on May's / Johnson's deal and got it out the way first.

Terrible judgements from all the opposition bar the SNP
