So looking on BBC...which of these will Conservatives even do:
This one is just funny:
"It usually takes years to negotiate a free-trade deal and, allowing time to have everything agreed, this would have to happen within five months."
Like do we really think this will be this quick?

I'm sorry, is this some sort of Scottish joke that I'm too Irish to understand?
Shitposting aside, congrats to the SNP. Y'all are kindred spirits.
Reminder that labour refused to work with the 'unite to remain' folks to avoid splitting the remain vote -
Things would have probably gone better tonight had they agreed to work with the other parties.

Just farmers and old folk down here. Can't wait till they all lose their EU subsidy
Corbyn was never the right leader for Labour.
Looks like we have 4/5 more Tory years because Corbyn wanted to sit on the fence for Brexit

Fishing towns in Aberdeen voting Brexit/Tory. It's hilarious.
Enjoy!
You promise these cunts fishing rights and they fall for it every single time.
Need sleep. Every Scot who helped keep the Tories in, enjoy the next 5 years!
I'll be back with the "told you so". Keep my seat warm.

Forgive the drive-by from US PoliERA...
Kudos to SNP. Like seriously. I also see that Northern Ireland is entirely local parties (though I can't recall if that was already true).
...Good luck, y'all.

That'd be the UK equivalent to heavy agriculture states still supporting Trump despite him directly hurting their economies with China trade garbage, and climate change starting to ruin things more frequently. People voting to punch themselves in the junk, basically.
Statistically those in labour to conservative seats likely know someone who voted Tory. I hope you're all giving them short shrift from now on. Honestly fuck England. Fuck racists. Fuck England rugby. Fuck England football. Fuck our prospects at the Tokyo Olympics. Fuck elderly brexiteers. Fuck people who fear immigration. I'm having a baby next year. Fuck people who decided I'd be bringing it in to a world where that will be much more expensive and where the outcomes will be worse under a Tory government, where 99% of schools are facing further cuts. My sister's ex husband and his family are Tories - we are still civil for the sake of my nephew, but that ends tomorrow. His granny is a stupid, myopic, blind Tory cunt and I'm going to tell her so. I don't want people like that in my life.
And so it's clear I'm equal opportunities with the dispensing of fucks - fuck the Lib Dems, fuck the centrist labour turncoats, fuck class traitors who have forgotten what the Tories visited upon their communities not 30 years ago, and fuck those who steered the Brexit choice in the wrong direction inside Corbyn's team. We can now all clearly see it was fantasy to try and bring people together in racist little England. Fuck this country. And fuck the Tories. I hope their reign is fucking miserable for everyone who voted for them.

Yep, NI's dominated by regional parties, British parties never really won anything here outside of the odd election many decades ago.
And yeah. Damn. At least your fascist didn't win the popular vote...
Doesn't really matter. 41 was the common polling figure.
It's hilarious to see Lib Dems in particular already manoeuvring to try and deny IndyRef 2.
Not up to you, Willie Reneeeeeeeee!
I'm just finding solace in the fact the Brexit Party prevent Tories from taking other seats. Good job dividing the racist votes you cunts.
Fuck off your twat. You're the reason the Tories have power right now.

Scotland on 46 seats, 4 left. We won't hit 50 though because there is a Lib Dem stronghold up north.
That waster Davidson has escaped.

People care more for Brexit right now than anything else. Fence sitting was a bad strategy.
For Labour to succeed they need more Centre Left candidates, they found one then gave the job to his Brother.
This is the 3rd or 4th election SNP have been the largest party or won (Scottish elections) with a referendum in their manifesto.
It's clear what we want, fuck those obstructive cunts.
Or Aberdeen.
But yes, feels for my sane English brothers and sisters.
FPTP has long outlived it's usefulness, we've needed PR for so so so long.
Could someone explain Wales to an outsider like me? I remember it voting Leave in 2016, but only one Labour seat there went to the Tories. Why did Labour resist better in Wales than in the "red wall" in the north I keep seeing mentioned in the media?
I live in Eltham.We've been Labour for over 2 decades
This is bollocks.
It was clear at the halfway point of this election that Labour were not doing what they did in 2017. Instead of accepting that, many went into full denial and stayed within the leftist twitter echo chamber. Alot of excuses as to why Labour were not gaining like they were in 2017 and why they will still get enough seats. It's bollocks.

What a fucking mess. I was expecting a Tory majority, but I wasn't expecting it to be so huge.
The only upside to any of this is seeing Jo Swinson and Chuka Umunna lose.
