Alex Salmond's seat under threat, would be beautiful if true.

Not heard that, hope not.

SNP spokesman.. "Theresa May's blown it"

There's always a first time.

It can be done.

Labour did it once though iirc they gave up after a few months

Happened in 74

No majority is better than a bad majority...titter.

Minority Tory government or Labour/SNP/Lib Dem coalition?

We're fucked either way.

That coalition doesn't get enough seats fella you would have to throw in Welsh and Irish support, basically everyone gangs up on the Tories

Absolutely mate, and the conspirators in the PLP should hang their heads in shame

Went to a couple of meetings he was speaking at, incidentally Che Guevara's daughter was also speaking, and he came across as he has done the last two months. Have to say that at the time I never thought he was gone be involved in derailing the conservatives, as someone has said almost single handedly.

odds against a hung parliament until now, dead even 1.98 with 2.02 to lay.

I got 11/2 on Tories 325 to 349 seats, happy if they get less.

325 is still possible I would say 50/50

These Brexit negotiations will be fun if those exit polls are right for once.

Yeah, I should have included them too. Either way, not good.

 

[TheRemainsOfTheDave]

if true, its completely screwed brexit negotiations.

Makes you wonder if it's all been engineered ... Nobody wants to be in charge of the negotiations, it seems.
