It was a good night for them, but I do hope the Tories will do Brexit and then it truly will be done.
I hope and pray for a good result for us next year too.

That’s why there will be calls for Sadiq Khan to become Labour Leader.

Notched down one for the Tories at 363 but still a hefty majority.
Biggest loser of the night is the SNP that failed to break 50 seats in Scotland.
Brexit is on a roll now!!!

Tories won 45% of the popular vote. They haven’t done this well since 1970.

The Tories won 6 Scottish seats.
SNP +13 with 3 seats left to call.

It’s looking like about 30,000,000 will have voted when the night is over. That’s a lot of voters in a nation with a total population of about 65,000,000. Especially when you remember that about 1/3 of that total is children under voting age, plus certain percentages incapacitated, imprisoned, or ineligible.

364 to 370. That coupled with the destruction of the opposition gives them free reign

Latest figure nets the Tories with two seats giving them 365 and a majority of 66.
Labour’s showing is worse than that secured by Michael Foot in 1983.
Tories hold the overwhelming majority of seats in England.
Everyone told Boris Johnson it couldn’t be done and he proved the naysayers wrong.
What a magnificent and absolutely astonishing victory!

Plus 6 for Tories in Wales too.

...in a deeply divided moment for the country that has left the outcome unpredictable.
By "deeply divided" the Slimes means, we're rooting for the anti-semitic socialist scion of the USSR. Boris has had a big lead in the polls for weeks. Thanks goldstategop.

> Labour, which has lost seats across the North, Midlands and Wales in places which backed Brexit in 2016, is facing its worst defeat since 1935.
