[QUOTE=Craigewan;52330623]I know you were trying to make a "Strong and Stable" reference.
But I just feel "Can't disable the Cable" works better.[/QUOTE]
Was actually more going for the noun, like stabling a horse xd.
Labour took Glasgow NE.

[QUOTE=Mr Kotov;52330628]I know several Scots who voted Tory purely out of intent to block another referendum.
I live in Perthshire right now btw[/QUOTE]
Yeah, I know a lot of people down Perthshire way doing the same (From my days working at an SWT reserve down there)
I'm proud of you Glasgae.
[QUOTE=killerteacup;52330627]Wales is heavily favouring labour
NI is not voting Tory much at all.
Scotland is losing SNP seats to Tory's in pro-leave, anti-indyref areas.[/QUOTE]
NI not voting tory doesn't matter, they're so far voting DUP who are very likely to prop up a tory minority government to give them an effective majority.
Ed Miliband reclaimed his seat!
I don't know anything about British politics but it looks like the Labours are wining.

Speculation at the minute, but it is incredibly significant because he won by a 8k margin in 2015
I don't mind Glasgow going red if it fends off these teuchters voting Tory
Has Labour lost any seats yet?

Yeah, this is my constituency. Lots of rural folks and Oil Workers voting Blue this time, basically they're picking up the former lib dem vote. (Unless a surprise upset happens and they all vote Lib Dem, but since it is very much a Brexit thing here I'm expecting Tories. This area was where the narrowest votes to remain happened)
YES! Another Lab gain from Con!

From where?

Conservatives losing Ipswich to Labour is absolutely devastating for them.
Yes good.
[QUOTE=joshuadim;52330667]From where?[/QUOTE]
I didn't catch, but it was a 1% difference and it was true blue Tory country for miles around on the map.
Edit : Ah yes Ipswich!

That guy has great political run as SNP veteran within SNP history.
Canadian here, does how confident can you say that May just got booted out of office?
Not looking good for the Monster Raving Looney Party, only 106 votes in Islington.
Wow huge majority for Corbyn
Wtf are all these weird parties in Corb's constituency?

Unlikely, it is safe to assume now that come morning May will be our (newish) Prime Minister

Too early to call. It went something like this last time, and then the majority of the south declared and was entirely blue. We need to see if that Blue tide materialises or not.

Conservatives are more likely than not to form the next government, but odds on May's resignation are very good I would say.

I got worried Cambridge would swing back to Lib Dem, I'm glad this is the result

Bath apparently went Lib Dem.
Ninja'd by a Merge.
Well I certainly didn't see that one coming

Definitely, a Conservative minority government propped up by the DUP
