Labour hold Southampton Test. With that, the Tories can no longer form a majority without going into coalition.
I wonder how Theresa's resignation speech is coming along. Looking forward to hearing it.
No benefit really. Two separate services. Someone at Moorgate will know that a Circle Line train takes them round to Tower Hill and beyond whilst an H&C would take them towards Barking. The fact that Weatbound pax can take one of two services to the same destination is not an issue.
AFAIC...
SNP not completely dead in any of their loss seats though. Still very much in contention for 2022. (Or October). If they lost the very marginal seats due to a poor turnout then those are easily regained.
Not a disaster then. The SNP surge of 2015 was always going to be temporary. The fact that...
Rhondda stays Labour. Plaid leader Leanne Wood was considering contesting here - may be glad she didn't (although perhaps the voters would have fallen in love with her accent?).
No surprise there. Vulnerable anyway, made worse by the furore surrounding the previous candidate.
That is a shock. In some senses it's historically been one of the safest seats for Labour. But it swung hugely to SNP last time. That's a bad loss. :(
Still, I'll take a loss to Labour better than a loss to Conservative.
Eep! Too close for comfort, but a majority is a majority.
Theresa May holds Maidenhead - again please contain your surprise.
SNP hold Glasgow NW. Tories make a gain from Labour somewhere I just saw?
Good result here. It should mitigate some of the losses.
Such as Ayr. Ayr has gone blue :( And Kirkcaldy (formerly Gordon Brown's seat) back to Labour.
