Do you think the lib dems could work with labour?
Don't think they'll go into a coalition with anyone after the hammering they took last time. SNP and Plaid have previously indicated they'd be prepared to work with Labour.

Does anybody think Boris will finally get hold of the Tories now?

Yes should of gotten it before. The lead brexit man. A buffoon people say but he was on tghe winning side of the argument. Not that much of a buffoon then.

As for your other point yes a minority government is possible.

A lot of 50/50 up there! Could go anyway through the night. SNP could have a disasterous night

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 conservative party. IMO.

No they hate eachother. Another general election for the autumn is the call if it's a hung parliament.

Tories made a massive error putting may as PM. They needed a brexit person to lead the ship not someone who campaigned for remain.

Don't think it was May as PM, it was their super shit manifesto with no goodies and several shit bombs vs Labour's massive promises. Also they grossly under estimated Corbyn, turns out he wasn't such a liability as they thought. Fawk, I could have told them myself it was a balls up.

She's certainly more competent than a lot of the english candidates.

I think we both are right personally.

He's a liability. You couldn't trust him to lead an election campaign. Look at how he's been in this election.

I think your hatred for the man is a shame. He is a very likable character who loves this country and won the biggest vote we've ever had in this country. Held two top senior roles now and was backstabbed by that cretin gove. He came out of it very well.

Yes he changed his mind. He backed leave and he won the golden ticket. Give the guy a break. We all said how awful Corbyn was and whilst I don't agree with his polictics I can see he truely believes in his policies.

Word of caution.... just two years ago the exit poll got labours seats wrong by 34 seats that's a huge amount to be out by.

Don't hate him at all and agree he is a very likeable character but that doesn't mean he should be PM!

First result casts rather a cloud on the exit poll

How? Lab inceased their majority and UKIP vot split relatively equally across Lab and Con...

Because the exit poll assumes a 7% swing from Tory to Labour -- this was 2%

Need a marginal to really see if the exit poll is way out or largely right.

True but the second result again suggest a 30 seat Tory majority and Brexit was a done deal after these two seats last time
