May looking and sounding very rattled on stage here at her count.
Her hair is now very frumpy compared to to the much more stylish short bob she had when she stood in Downing Street to call the election seven weeks ago.
Thankfully for her sheâs not short of a bob so she wonât have to worry for the future when she resigns in the morning.

Mayâs voice almost breaking there as she spoke.
She has the perfect look of someone who knows they fucked up. Stability is all she has to offer and she doesnât even have that
People think the daftest things when theyâre out walking in Snowdonia.
Tim Farron WINS.

It doesnât say much about strong leadership, one of the Torys calling cards. Cameron had no need to call a referendum. He lost and heâs gone. May had no need to call an election. Itâs not looking good for them but even if they do manage to cobble a Government together she is toast and she knows it.

Nick Robinson: âTheresa May was heavily made up and had the voice of a woman who had been crying earlier on.â
Relying on shit coverage here. Surely at this point the obvious outcome is a minority Tory govt with DUP support? When was last time loyalists held balance of power?
Two historically bad calls by Tory PMs.
Davis will be the next leader of the Tories I think.
He has the âI wouldnât mind going for a pint with himâ factor.
Johnson could bury the Tories for a generation if he takes over.
