UK General Election, 2017 - Election Day and Results Thread

[SunSt0rm]

Hot take - DUP will end up with more seats than the Lib Dems.

Probably not, Lib Dems already at 8 now

[Kamala]

lab crushing it in wales is the side-story of the night.

Agreed - they almost won Vale of Glamorgan and Arfon.

[heatcharger]

Nuttal gets cucked in Boston

Lmao his seat went 75% Leave and he still comes in 3rd.

[Tintrlvr]

Well, a sad day for NI politics--SDLP totally wiped out.  Not a single MP since...they first stood for seats, if I'm not mistaken?

Has Belfast South declared then? Have not seen it.

Went to DUP

Gross

Also, for the first time since 1874, Irish nationalism will not be represented at Westminster.

[Kamala]

Is there any reason for the DUP surge? I thought they would perform weakly, seeing their lackluster results in the NI assembly election.

That's why he chose Boston lmao

Ulster Unionist Party (more moderate unionist party) has utterly collapsed.

[OSR stands with Israel]

Take that with a grain of salt, but John McDonnell says Boris will formally launch his leadership bid as early as tonight.

[MT Treasurer]

Labour wins Canterbury by 187 votes, haha.

[MAINEiac4434]

Lib Dems are gaining seats but losing vote share...perhaps tactical voting for Labour in seats the LDs have no chance?

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

Seems like the one bit of good news for Tory is the DUP surge in NI.....

[True Federalist (진정한 연방 주의자)]

BBC now forcasting 318 Tory, 267 Labour

how much north irish support would she get?

Indirectly, 3 or 4 votes from Sinn Fein (they don't sit, so their 6 or 7 empty seats mean the Tories need fewer seats), and 9 DUP votes.

And the SF surge in NI

[MAINEiac4434]

Alex Salmond looks sad.

[Gass3268]

Any reason why BBC has such a LibDem boner?

[Bojack Horseman]

I remember seeing something about how the LDs were bragging that their membership had doubled since the last election...guess that didn't exactly come through.

[Helsinkian]

So I guess Thurrock is UKIP's best constituency? Managed to get 20% there.

South Thanet hasn't come in yet.

[JerryArkansas]

They now are in the positive compared to 2015

[NOVA Green]

SDLP has already lost two of its three seats!

To Sinn Fein....

[KingSweden]

ELMO WON THREE WHOLE VOTES

[Technocracy Timmy]

Any reason why BBC has such a LibDem boner?

SNP 27
DUP 10
LD 9
SF 4
Plaid Cymru 3
IND 1

BOW TO CORBYN

[Kamala]

Recount in Hastings and Rye.

[The Free North]
