I am getting really excited.  I am pretty much going to stay up all night just to watch LAB fall below 200 seats.

The bitter part of 2015 was seeing the Tories eek out a majority while the SNP swept Scotland. I worry tonight will be just like that, while on the other hand I relish the victory of the 2019 Tories far less than I did the 2015 Tories.

Looks like the Tories are doing badly in Remainer constituencies in London, projected to lose Cities of London and Westminster, Finchley and Golders Green, Putney an almost certain Labour gain, Kensington an almost certain Labour hold. Better than expected for those ones, shows this is a huge Brexit realignment.

I'd gladly trade 20 seats to see that woman gone. And one of my fellow Ghanaians is to blame!



You know, Boris wasn't that bad a mayor. Perhaps if he gets such a large majority, and Boris can be Boris, he won't be such a bad PM even if he is devoid of any kind of personal principle. At the very least we are sure of preventing any kind of Labourite disasters ('99 Lords Act, Supreme Court, SDR '98, devolution across the board, etc, etc) and hopefully spared further "modernizing" excesses (FTPA, SDSR '10, Gender Recognition Bill, further Lords "reform", police cuts, women bishops, etc, etc) under this government.

Semper eadem!

Can Labour at least count on Cardiff South and Penarth?

Lib Dems will almost certainly keep Orkney and Shetland, and Argyll & Bute and Ross & Skye will stay with the SNP, meaning that the separatists will be "confined" to 48 seats. It's not 0, but it's better than 50, never mind 55.
