The 2024 UK General Election - news, speculation and updates

[The39thStep]

Again based on the small exit poll however regional differences are interesting

 

[Dog_Voodoo]

That underlines the exit poll

We are gonna see this everywhere unfortunately. Fuck

 

[Calamity1971]

We are having a big argument - Steve said 11.10 for the first result, Alison 11.15. They started the announcement at 11.12 but finished at 11.14.

Who won the bet?

Steve wins.

Sky have got the deputy chair of the Tories on and he looks like he's doing work experience from Eton's sixth form.

 

[Elpenor]

Via an mate…

Exit poll has Monmouthshire, 61% chance Tory hold (ie it's in the Tory column one of the 131). Tory candidate at the count has just conceded.... (one of the pollsters on Twitter).

Watching the BBC coverage with Jacob Rees-Mogg's live interview from his house right now, is that his wank room? Photo of Churchill and possibly Thatcher too in the background.

He’s skewering Sunak

 

[Kid_Eternity]

Every election the same song and dance is made over the exit poll…

 

[Gerry1time]

He’s skewering Sunak

Not heard it called that before.

 

[Steel Icarus]

I would laugh if Rees-Mogg caught pustulating smallpox of the cock

 

[Ax^]

Christ. Reform only 7000 behind labour in Sunderland

Sunak "Britain is not a racist country look at my leadership to prove this"

Farage getting into Westminster along with 12 other racist reform fuckwits

who saw that coming

 

[belboid]

Labour got 6000 more votes in Sunderland in 2017. Justsaying.

 

[pinkmonkey]

Exit poll suggests 83% lab hold.

I bloody hope so!

did notice that is what he had picked.

 

[bcuster]

The US news station would’ve projected winners by now. You are all very patient

 

[Steel Icarus]

Projected winner - neolib wanker

 

[belboid]

StatsforLEfites is reporting Labour are only on 36.5% apparently!

 

[Pickman's model]

Every election the same song and dance is made over the exit poll…

Well spotted

 

[Kevbad the Bad]

I quite often stay up till midnight, or even later. Tonight I'm much more tired than usual. Is it because it's actually quite boring?

 

[WouldBe]

Said 3.4% (?) swing lab to ref.

 

[Kaka Tim]

Cos it's consistently very close to the actual result.

 

[SE25]

that 11k is making me feel very worried currently...

 

[strung out]

The wheel turns…

I’m all for alternative viewpoints and having a bit of a laugh, but honestly, your centrist trolling is just shit.

 

[pbsmooth]

But Reform is clearly a protest vote for many people… for all the fretting, in a year or two where will they be? They’re not even a coherent party

 

[Bingoman]

Blyth about to declare

 

[belboid]

Sam Freedman on the exit poll actual numbers:

Lab 37%
Con 23%
Reform 17%
LD 12%
Green 7%

That would be awful and embarrassing for Labour.
