Predictions -

Con - 319 (-11)
Lab - 250 (+21)
SNP - 49 (-7)
Lib-Dem - 5 (-3)

Tory government with unionist support !

Roughly got it right. SNP does worse & Lib-Dem & Lab got a little more than my prediction.

But I got exact 319 Tory seats + DUP coalition government right ! Yay !

Not bad.

Gonna be bold and say narrow Conservative majority.
Update: Narrow CON majority or, if Labour's lucky, CON minority with Unionist support.

Tories scrape a majority/miss by a handful of seats but enough to form a minority government

May's credibility is mortally wounded, she is forced out and replaced by either Amber Rudd or David Davis by then end of this year.

New leader calls another election in 2018, to try and gain their own mandate, part of which includes a promise on the Brexit deal.

So 2019 sees a referendum on the Brexit deal, which is accepted.

As a result, Scotland holds another IndyRef in 2020, in which it votes for independence, and causing yet another political crisis.

Which means another General Election in 2021.

The results of this GE are massively distorted, leading to an electoral reform referendum, which occurs in 2022.

As the reform is accepted, a GE is called to take place under the new system in 2023

By this time, the country is ready for a Brexit re-entry referendum, which takes place in 2024.

It never ends!

This is actually going to come true...
