The only thing that can save this party now is the snack selection. What's going on in the crispverse?

If i start hoping that nobody is able to predict anything with any accuracy, could there be unintended negative consequences?
Tactical voting may not show up in the predictions, depending on how the poll was done. And there's substantial response bias possible there as well.

Don’t forget the Welsh. They love a good Brexit they do.

Yeah I've already switched off bbc. Can't stand Priti Patel or, apparently, the English.

The single malt is finished. Only got cooking whisky.

Does anyone in the EU want to adopt me?

There's a bunk bed in Portugal with your name on it.

Not literally, that'd be a bit weird.

I'm hoping exit poll is a bit wrong.

...and that Labour are even more f.cked than this.

A majority of 106 instead of 86 has no meaningful difference. But the fewer seats he wins, the more certain it is that Corbynism is over.

Because I'm really worried Labour will repeat this sh.t manifesto in 2024. We need our Kinnoch, and our Smith, and our Blair to win eventually with NewNew Labour.

Also, the more Tory MPs, the more the mad Mogg ERG fringe gets diluted. They can be ignored and a slightly less horrific Brexit could result.

Is this the thread where we're watching the telly? Nigel Farage is making me feel physically sick.

Such a surprise.

I mean, it's not like anyone saw this coming, or that they could have done anything in advance, is it?

We were. I think we've all turned the telly off now, and are now sobbing and necking gin on the toilet.
