The dark skies are closing in over Theresa - what with the Met now asking for more money - pressure to cut much of austerity - Grenfell - the Finsbury Park Mosque attack - Brexit Negs opening relatively unsuccessfully and Spreadsheet Phil having a dig over the weekend and today - the lot - whether its her fault or not its all being lumped on her as being on her watch as Home Sec or PM. Even the DUP are moaning about the agreement they haven't fucking reached yet !!! The Queens Speech promises to be a 10 minute affair tomorrow and the laugh is nobody in her party is keen to replace her right now..................what a fuck up.
 
The Queen won't want to hang around with the speech at Parliament . . . She'll be in a rush to get to Ascot

You may not but that is what the poll on the election stated and concluded.

No, separate categories. Labour still had a majority among working class voters and the swing was probably UKIP voters going to the Tories. I'm not sure which finger would need to be pulled out of where to get them back. Perhaps when enough of them lose their jobs because of Brexit.
 
According to Electoral Calculus (no, I've never heard of them either) if the election had been held under the new constituencies proposed by the Boundary Commission, the Tories would still have been 3 seats short of an overall majority. Notable losers would have included Boris Johnson, Iain Duncan Smith, Margaret Beckett, Tim Farron and Caroline Lucas. Sinn Fein would have won more seats (9) than the DUP (7).

I disagreed with most of Lucas's contributions to the campaign, but it would be a shame if the Greens lost their only seat.
 
Queen's Speech expected to last under ten minutes.

Duke of Edinburgh admitted to hospital but in good spirits.

Telegraph reporting that the deal with the DUP is anything but watertight, and that the Conservatives are already sounding out the Liberal Democrats in an attempt to shore up support.
