voted Labour, though to be fair, Cunninghams list of assentors was a bit of a rogues gallery!

£7 hundred million buys you a lot of allies, even when they aren't really.

Yawn. Saudi agenda on every post despite it going on under Liebour for years too is as tired as the Corbyn IRA agenda. The Saudi deal is two way or why would it continue? There is no proof the money paid is directly linked to ISIS. Those funding already have plenty. If anything it could even be argued as lazy racism sugGestingthorpe they are all extremists promoting Wahhabism.

I've been out canvassing this evening for the Conservatives, it's hard work to be honest all that walking round talking shit.

I'd much rather sit at a computer and do it.

Social media and the news seems to be full of reports of votes going missing, people turned away and all sorts.

Think it's true or people getting excuses in ready?

No Corbyn will be destroyed and the excuses will be of a different form. I think the scale of defeat will be humiliating

Maybe the government could realise the report they had done to show its not true.

There was a couple of reports, later confirmed, earlier in the week of postal votes going missing which were both in seats with small majorities.

The stuff that's going on today doesn't seem worrying.

Its been confirmed by the Labour CLP who are trying to establish how many people it has impacted and Newcastle Under Lyme have admitted that incorrect copies of the electoral register were sent to polling stations with people who registered closer to the deadline missing, being speculated that this is the cause of similar problems elsewhere.

At what stage should the electoral commission step in?

Have also seen that the Conservatives have been reported to the police for breach of electoral law regarding campaigning within 250m of a polling station and attaching election materials to polling stations.

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 indicate an upset based on the last time I saw it that busy was the referendum. Still think Tories will win but with a high turnout wouldn't be surprised if they've lost a big chunk of their majority. Who knows, maybe even a hung parliament.

Walked into my local polling station and there were plenty of dogs waiting patiently for their owners. No hassle where I am.

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

I hope so, it will be the best thing all round for Labour supporters. Probably even better then a straight win (which is highly unlikely). Hung Parliament should lead to another election which means the Labour grassroots can actually have a chance to choose their candidates instead of this crap we have in Coventry from the new labour days.

Hung parliament is the worst possible result for the country.

Looks like YouGov's prediction is a perfect match for the exit poll. Great stuff though if it's a fair reflection of what's going on.

Country will be rudderless now, welcome to 2 or 3 weeks of horse trading while Europe laughs at us.

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.

Of course it might not be accurate. But May's days surely numbered

If this is even remotely accurate the chances of the red tories getting Corbyn out in another leadership challenge must be slim.
