Boris just beat out Lord Buckethead and Elmo.

Jo Swinson, the leader of the liberal democrats party, just lost her seat

The greatest thing I have ever seen in my life is Boris Johnson getting his win standing in front of a person in a Elmo costume that got 40 votes and a person in a buckethead getting 80 votes
I got to hand it to the UK
This process is grat

Didn’t know he was standing for MP.

Blair held Sedgefield for 24 years. County Durham is a place where mining and heavy industry reigned supreme. Think of the Rust Belt here. They voted to leave by a significant margin in 2016 and Labour ignored their wishes.

Labour is learning the hard way that the cosmopolitan political class in London doesn't exactly have the best political instincts and is not the end all be all of who calls the shots for Great Britain.
It's like a wife who doesn't frick her husband's anymore and absolutely believes that there's no possible way another woman could sense her husband's sexual frustration, takes advantage of that, gives him the fricking he needs and pushes the wife out.

In case anyone missed it, Corbyn is confirmed to be stepping down tomorrow.
Also, Lib-Dem Jo Swinson lost her seat. She's basically the reason this election.

How do you think she is enjoying her decision to schedule this vote with Corbyn? LOL

Incredible stat: the tories have won 15 seats tonight (so far) that have been labour-held since 1945.
Posted on 12/12/19 at 11:00 pm to HailHailtoMichigan!
I think Labour has only won one seat tonight held by another party.
Posted on 12/12/19 at 11:03 pm to MrLSU
Tories have officially secured the majority tonight.

Are we going to get some awesome "Media Moments" like we did in 2016?
I believe their media is more liberal than ours.

This is a mining area held by dennis skinner since 1970.
dennis skinner (nicknamed beast of bolsover) is the longest serving MP!
he lost a seat he has comfortably won since 1970

Margaret Thatcher would be proud of the showing

Which US election should we compare this to?
Reagan 84?
GOP Midterms of 1994?
What?
