    I'm surprised the feckless wonder that is Jeremy Corbyn has had as much support as he has.

    Unfortunately the kids thought they'd be getting free Uni places.

    For the many, etc.

    Agree, but the swing to the left wing hasn't won them power, disaster averted.

    True, but as far as May was concerned that was never even a consideration. This was about dominance, and Britain says no.

    IIke some of Leon's stuff on here.

    Love the way these political commentators are pretending to know how and why people voted the way they did.

    Making it up.

    Same here, he's a phenomenon, but he's not PM.

    We'd be ****ed if he got in power. Plus he's a **** for not observing the national anthem at the Battle of Britain service.

    You're right, he's not. Theresa May is.

    True but as I got that I think the Tory bigwigs didn't want May to go through with brexit. It suits them this hung parliament.
    Brexit was doing something the house of commons can go back to doing nothing now, fudging delaying trying to drag it on and on and forever. Politics.

    The swing to the left wing will continue because the Tories have no answers. Big business wants immigration and free trade with Europe. The Tories will give them that in the negotiations but at the cost of further divisions with the Conservatives. Austerity will continue as will Corbyn's campaign against it. May gambled on a huge majority to force a soft Brexit through and lost.

    Corbyn stood up and said we want a fairer society and won. He is now seen as a potential Prime Minister, something he wasn't 10 weeks ago.

    He did observe it. Do you mean he didn't sing it? I never realised that was mandatory.

    Tuition fees should be reviewed along with many issues when analysing generational voting.

    I don't see how they can procrastinate. They've started the clock ticking and would need the mandate of another referendum to stop Brexit. The Tories made their bed with the original referendum and the general election, they now have to lie in it.

    I think this was the swing in the marginals - 2 votes in one, bloody incredible.

    I don't blame the kids for wanting to avoid the burden of debt for being educated, I blame an element of retirees for being greedy beyond reason.

    It should be, as head of a main party. He's a pacifist and a ****.

    Whoa the Tori's didn't make their bed they went with the vote as they bloody should have done. That was democracy.
    Im no Tory but she has still won. Why are the beeb reporting it as a loss and going on about brexitmconstantly. As others have said people voted against more so for the nhs and tuition fees, I expect

    I wouldn't sing it.

    I love the idea of pacifist being an insult - "he won't kill innocent babies, what a disgrace that man is."
