The cons won but it's a disaster for may???
Have another ****er then till someone gets a clear majority and keep doing it till it's done.

I'm just watching BBC one and it's all brexit
 
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.

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

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.

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

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.

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.

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

For the many, etc.

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.
