UK general election 2019 - corbinned

[Sidney]

@Tank

You were saying earlier that you couldn’t believe the Tories could beat Labour in London and that Labour might beat the Tories in Scotland. I find both those things very believable. Boris is very popular in London where he was mayor, whereas he is despised in Scotland because he said that a pound spent in London was better for the country than a pound spent in Glasgow (and also because the Scots although cowardly have a little bit of sense).

I very much doubt the Tories have beaten Labour in London

Labour don’t look to have beaten anybody in Scotland, well maybe yer man in Edinburgh South

Only silver lining will be the DUP will be put on their arses.

[Lazarus]

Excellent call. @Sidney is the real winner of this election

Owen Jones 🌹 (OwenJones84)

Owen Jones rolling out the excuses. Jones is a joke. He got it a few years ago on how crap a leader Corbyn was but after the leadership election he came crawling back and has been one of his most craven supporters. Embarrassing.

William Wallace could be the long term hero here

[Sidney]

He’s one of the most cogent and vital voices in the UK press and consistently on the mark

An election defeat doesn’t change that

Strange that you think it would

Fantastic election campaign from Sidney. If only Corbyn had campaigned as cleverly British socialism would be in a much better place.

Except when he wavered on Corbz though for a while.

I would say this exit poll is overstating it, no doubt labour have been hammered but I’d imagine they’ll sneak over 200

[Sidney]

For Tories, I guess the answers are: the destruction of the NHS, child poverty, literally kicking homeless people to death, the continued destruction of the planet and the Pandora’s Box of white English “nationalism”

The UK is headed for a US style nightmare

@tallback

. Labour in disarray and could take them a couple of elections to revert.

Not sure about this. There will be a correction. Brexit will fuck them. People will be angry. Labour under a new leader will experience a surge like @flattythehurdler gets when he thinks of Jo Swinson. #FlattyKnew

Hopefully we can salvage some dignity in the way Donegal reduced the margin from 21 to 16 when they were routed by Mayo in 2013

@Sidney

If the SNP are on 55 I presume the fragrant Jo Swinson and her boobies are gone too

I hope Layla Moran has held on

She’d be a good Lib Dem leader

The SNP look far too high on 55. If anything I suspect the CUP are understated.

@Julio_Geordio

Any proof mate? You’d be the first demanding it if it was the other way

Any sign of that proof yet @Sidney

@Sidney

… read that Tories were also standing outside polling stations asking young people for ID today in an attempt to out them offUS tactics are creeping into UK poilitics and it’ll get much worse under the next Tory governmentFeeling on the street is they’ve got their majority with something like 345 seats

Nah

White English “nationalism” is about to have its day

The English will think everybody else was wrong rather than themselves when Brexit goes tits up

[caulifloweredneanderthal]

There’s a fair chunky Tory lad wandering round the Newcastle count centre. I bet he will be GAA style hanging by the camera when the count comes in

[Julio_Geordio]

Any bookie offering a price on over 200 on labour?

[the_man_himself]

He’ll be wasting his time at the Newcastle count anyway

[Batigol]

Ladbroke have an over/under of 194.5 seats
