For once I agree with you. I can't see how you can run so much of a bad campaign without it being on purpose.
All true. For once I agree with you. However I honestly believe there's more to this than meets the eye. May's campaign was so obviously hopelessly inept that it was just too bad to be true. Why else would you introduce daft guaranteed vote losers like fox hunting, nicking school meals and the dementia tax? I'm really unconvinced that they wanted a huge majority and just might have undercooked it too much.
To answer your question where do they go from here? Corbyn/McDonnell have said theyre ready to form a government. Let them go ahead with the weakened SNP/Greens and LibDems. Let them deliver the Brexit that they think the country voted for.
It'll be the end of the lot of them for a generation.
What's happened in Scotland is nothing short of remarkable, the North East is almost entirely blue. Sturgeon holds another independence referendum at her peril.

er... I don't believe the DUP were ever connected with the IRA. They were more Sinn Fein.Assume those that were kept bringing up Corbyns alleged support of the IRA are appauled and will be equally vocal about the prospect of the Conservatives working with the DUP?

Come on lads, seriously? They fucked it up on purpose? I've heard some daft conspiracy theories but this is one that would top some of the loonies on Howard Hughes' show.
IMHO, a lot of labour voters thought Corbyn was unelectable - as did most of his MPs AND Mrs May. Turns out his vision is shared by a lot of people. Mrs May has to appease the paddys as well as her back bench now because if we go again and If Corbny can get the labour skeptics back on board and if he can appeal to more ex-UKIP then you never know what might happen.
Mugs? You're better than that.
The Tories haven't kept their promise on immigration, but you think someone like Corbyn will do better at keeping the wrong people out? Not a chance.
Lord Buckhead actually has some good policies on his manifesto:
MY 2017 MANIFESTO: Strong, not entirely stable, leadership
1. The abolition of the Lords (except me).
2. Full facial coverings to be kept legal, especially bucket-related headgear.
3. No third runway to be built at Heathrow: where we’re going we don’t need runways.
4. Ceefax to be brought back immediately, with The Oracle and other Teletext services to be rolled out by the next Parliament.
5. Regeneration of Nicholson’s Shopping Centre, Maidenhead.
6. Buckethead on Brexit: a referendum should be held about whether there should be a second referendum.
7. Nuclear weapons: A firm public commitment to build the £100bn renewal of the Trident weapons system, followed by an equally firm private commitment not to build it. They’re secret submarines, no one will ever know. It’s a win win.
8. Nationalisation of Adele: in order to maximise the efficient use of UK resources, the time is right for great British assets to be brought into public ownership for the common good. This is to be achieved through capital spending.
9. A moratorium until 2022 on whether Birmingham should be converted into a star base.
10. Legalisation of the hunting of fox-hunters.
11. New voting age limit of 16 to be introduced. New voting age limit of 80 to be introduced too.
12. Katie Hopkins to be banished to the Phantom Zone.
13. Stop selling arms to Saudi Arabia. Start buying lasers from Lord Buckethead.
14. Prospective MPs to live in the seat they wish to represent for at least five years before election, to improve local representation in Parliament.
15. Free bikes for everyone, to help combat obesity, traffic congestion and bike theft.

The DUP has issued a statement saying they don't think May can stay in power, her position in becoming untenable.
It turns out most people under 30 don't have a clue what they did, most of their mainland bombs were in the 70's and the Good Friday agreement was 20 years ago.
Wow if true. Where's that?
The last thing I heard was that May had been in deep talks with them overnight and a coalition had been agreed.
So, who are the DUP?
Ffs Grendel how hypocritical can your party get?
Climate change deniers
Homophobic
Etc
You sound bitterAll true. For once I agree with you. However I honestly believe there's more to this than meets the eye.

It's really not! Orange order marching from memorial park tomorrow. I intend to tell them they are not welcome in my cityThat's a really balanced article.
You reference from the Daily Mail - you can hardly talk about balance...
Right, far right, and extreme right?The Mail employs a balanced range of journalists and columnists from all political spectrums.
Right, far right, and extreme right?

Dan hodges is essentially a labour supporter
Exactly, the Tories looked at the polls and thought it would be a cakewalk. They thought they could sit back and watch Corbyn make a fool of himself and win without breaking sweat, unbelievable disregard for the electorate.Come on lads, seriously? They fucked it up on purpose? I've heard some daft conspiracy theories but this is one that would top some of the loonies on Howard Hughes' show. i'd put it down to ineptitude and a lack of empathy with the working classes.
