    hmmm

    Staggering the extent to which May has screwed this for herself. Unbelievable.

    No sleep tonight.

    Ugh I feel like this would actually be bad news for Labour....feel like it would re-energize conservatives.

    All the politicians on BBC (including John McDonnell) are warning caution about the exit polls due to the exit polls of the past. Didn't someone post a graphic here earlier about the exit polls being generally right?!

    hmmm

    I think you'd have taken it this morning mate;-)

    I wonder if a high turnout may actually see an even bigger swing towards Labour, given sample size of exit poll.

    I can't find a good place to watch coverage of this in America unfortunately....I don't have BBC World News, and BBC America is just playing Star Trek lol....Only channel I've found covering it is Bloomberg

    hmmm

    They are pretty accurate. Predicted the last four winners correctly. Slightly off in terms of seats in the last election (predicted 14 fewer than Cons got, and 7 more than Labour got) but in the previous two (2005 and 2010), their predictions for the winning party's number of seats were bang on.

    So... Does this mean May and Sturgeon have to be gone? It must do right?

    This is seriously so fucking unexpectedly exciting (because I didn't forsee this even for exit polls), this could be incredible.

    Robertson may go Conservative. It's a shame either way, I really like him.
