Ok. Thats good to know. I stand corrected. I just thought bookies had the same system as they do with football etc.

With football they just follow Asian Betting Sites, they don't react themselves to money staked for 90% of games they offer, but thats for another thread :smirk:

The odds for Elections generally just fall in line with Polls, with some external factors taken into account (usually the 'silent embarrassing vote' e.g Trump, Brexit = Racist, Tory = Scum) amongst a couple more.

Said earlier, it's astonishing the most knowledgable and bright minds in Politics, employed by these syndicates, can be consistently wrong every time.
 
I've only been living in the UK for eight months but it's so abundantly clear, for the future of young people, that another Conservative government will be a disaster. I have a good feeling about Labour though. This whole election is quite reminiscent of the Marriage Equality referendum in Ireland last year. I'm expecting record numbers of young voters to turn out tomorrow and give everyone quite a shock.

:cool:
 
Watching on BBC and literally everything they say sounds like good news for Labour.

Am I right in saying this looks like it's going every bit as well as the exit polls suggested?

And some...! Crazy talk of outside chance of Labour largest party.
 
Cant help but think, the recent london terror attack has influences the london vote too. Not that im complaining mind.
 
Has there been a bigger Political own goal than May calling this election and in effect her death warrant?

It's quite relieving to know that the public do actually react to how the Candidates present themselves over the course of the campaign.
 
I'm not getting excited about it being offensive then or anything, it just isn't a good one to use (as a white person in a white country kinda way especially I suppose.)

'We' say mixed-race now I think is the preferred non-discrim term nowadays.

Ah, super PC is (or was) 'person of colour' I believe. Which sounds even worse to me, but there we are.

I'm just reading up on it now, never given it much thought until now. Only picked it up from him and assumed it was ok if he said it but now I see comparisons to another word in that respect. I'll consider myself educated and move on. :)
 
What makes all of this funnier is that May brought this all on her herself.

She fecked herself over :lol:

Quite the contrary, disastrous for the Tories so far, they could be on track to get LESS seats than the projected opinion poll. :D

Oh my god. My fingers and toes are crossed. Has there berm any major upset yet? Has Pendle Been released yet?

Still looking good. Not really had any gains yet though but Labour haven't lost seats either.

So far Quacks things are looking oddly positive!!
 
It looks bad for SNP, but it's following yougov to a tee. Which suggests 44 not the 34 in the exit poll. Which in turn is bad for tories and good for progressive alliance...
 
Feel for Amber Rudd, having to go and stand at May's count as well as her own.
 
YouGov under/overestimated Labour/Tory votes in Tom Watson constituency. Results are all over the place but still looking good for the exit poll.

I'd take 310 for the Tories right now.
 
I can also report that the BBC coverage has been fairly MILF tastic so far.

And we've got Kuennesberg who I find strangely alluring for some reason I don't really understand.
 
Fantastic if true. Will never forgive him or party for their coalition with Tories.
The Lib Dems relied for years on the student vote, the second that he became deputy prime minister he pissed all over them. Horrible little cockwomble.
