Alex Salmond at risk of losing his seat.
i don't see the lib dems coalitioning with the tories. the two parties policies have shifted further and further apart since the coalition that they're very firmly and diametrically opposed to each other.
if they do form a coalition regardless i'll shred my membership card. after theresa may's comments on ripping up human rights laws i can't in good conscience support anyone who would allow her and her cronies to remain in power.

Yeah, Big Eck is my MP and he's almost certainly lost it, loads of oil workers voting Tory on the "Stop IndyRef2" mantra. That was the entirety of the campaign platform of Colin Clark here.
Banff & Buchan and Moray are going to be lost because the Tories have been promising fishing communities the full revival of the fishing industry, something that is actually impossible and that they don't actually care about.
I only feel bad I couldn't give my +1 TBH.
Theresa has really screwed the pooch on this one. I'm guessing a small majority so essentially no change. She'll surely have to step down after this travesty.
I will say 100% that Lewes has gone back to lib dems from convervative

The proletariat have prevailed.
I hope.
Well, it was a good idea for theresa to call the election when she did - but she didn't carry it through

The only thing Theresa May is capable of following through is a fart.
please can this be the last time we use first past the post
The BBC are really relaxed at the minute, there's some fun moments going on.
COULD Labour form a coalition? What are the odds?

Vacant - 650
Dunno why this amuses me so much

Unlikely. Based on the exit poll, SNP+LD+Lab are on 314 combined, equal to the Tories. They'd need more parties, and Green and Cymru aren't going to be enough. SDLP in NI might help, though. Equally, DUP in NI might push Tories up.

Unless the conservatives have done even worse than the exit poll, a coalition is incredibly unlikely.

With pretty much all the other parties yes.
For someone in the US, if she does lose more than 6 seats what does that mean? Will Jeremy be in power, will she be sacked as PM? How does it work?

Margin of error on the exit poll is 30 seats, 15 each way lab Tory.

sadly, toxx clauses don't apply to politicans, otherwise i think trump would either be dead or exiled 1,000 times over

It just means that her party won't be able to do anything without people from other parties agreeing to it.

Cool, thanks!
[QUOTE=thelurker1234;52329233]Tim Farron has said that they plan on being on the opposition, no matter which government is in.
Great that they've appeared to have gained 6 seats though.[/QUOTE]
suck me off Tim, you waste cadet.
Hearing some thunderstorms move in outside. Is this a sign?

Personally not surprised, meant to be going to Amsterdam in a few weeks and we've thought it might drpop in value if Conservatives get a majority.

That's just Theresa May following through after her red white and blue breakfast.
Results: PM Corbyn with a coalition of 315 (266+34+14+1)
