UK election exit polls are out

Gonna be a squeaker lads LINK
In theory you could have another Con-Lib coalition but that killed the Libs last time so I don't know that they'll be eager to repeat it. The only reliable coalition partners are the NI unionists.
Even if the exit polls are off and Cons win a majority Theresa May might get shivved as party leader because the expectation was a blowout to strengthen their majority for Brexit negotiations.

Eager to see if exit polls are off a little and Cons barely get over the line

Who is the media propping up as the can't miss winner so I know who's going lose?

I'll wait for the actual results...their polls have some history of being inaccurate...

Oh my god they WERE off!

Can't believe May called the election then turned around and said she was too busy to attend the debate
Posted on 6/8/17 at 4:43 pm to Iosh
Apparently, 76 seats in these exit polls are "too close to call"...that could be a big swing in either direction...

I love the Jeb election map memes

Corbyn was planning to skip it as well until the Dementia Tax debacle by May.
If May pulls this out (unlikely but possible), she can thank the SNP for basing their campaign on a new referendum.

exit polling has been a disaster last two elections

My ignorance barely exceeds my lack of concern over U.K. Politics.
But, I'll bite; what does this election really address?

Is this May a fan or foe of convfefe? What does the maga crowd want to see happen in this election?

CNN International cant contain their glee that the exit polls show Torrie losses.
I guess that means a Conservative landslide.
Hopefully Quest will keep his trousers on.

LOL: Newcastle-upon-Tyne gives their result before Sunderland, breaking tradition

May has yet to establish herself as a leader and people question her commitment to quick yet proper implementation of Brexit. Moreover, the recent string of terrorist attacks have people questioning her capability for tough and decisive leadership.
Unfortunately, the alternative is a Labour leader who's political hero is Hugo Chavez, a Liberal Democrat party in complete disarray and devoid of any real message, and a Ukip party that resides on the fringe. I do not think that Ukip is finished as they have no real traction in Parliament. I actually think they could make gains. However, they will still inhabit the fringe as people entertain the notion and ideas of Ukip yet refrain from embracing the party.
