Definitely not. I can't stand even thinking about friends and family that I suspect voted them right now.
I'm in tears. I knew it would be bad but hoped it wouldn't be this bad. I was truly optimistic about getting a government that actually cared about it's people.
At least the Tories will have to start actually owning stuff now, there’s far less places for them to hide.
Yeah leavers would definitely vote Labour just because it's a more likeable leader
...into the arms of America.
You are now, it wasn't clear originally tbh. It depends on policies really, I doubt a centrist Labour leader would've done much better unless they were backing brexit.
95% chance Swinson has lost her seat to SNP
I kind of saw it coming, we can attempt to think better, but all Trump and Brexit has shown is that far right politics is a winning combination right now. The media have a far greater impact than some of you think.
Why would anyone take you seriously any more? You have been wrong about everything for ages on here. If the polls are wrong I will take it back but at what point would you accept you don't really understand anything you spout on about as if you have some greater insight.
Just goes to show you how the internet is a microcosm of Britain. Otherwise Corbyn landslide...Feck this country.
I'd love to skip it but there's gonna be several weddings early next year and they are petty enough to call attention to me skipping it months down the line. I'm just gonna go, drink myself into a stupor and try not to glass my uncle when he inevitably says something about how people shouldn't be allowed the safety net of food banks - that was last christmas meet-up...I wouldn't go. Seriously.
This!Unfortunately, the media decides who wins the election in this country. Who ever, has the media on side wins it's simple. The old people have stuffed the young once again. It saddens me but when young people get to vote at the next general election all they will have experienced is a government who looks after the rich.

Same. Hope they're not expecting me to care for them in the coming years either. Everyone for themselves it seems. So be it.

What has he built?Next Labour leader should carry on what Corbyn was building. No way should it become centrist again
Exactly it’s easy and people have simple answers to complex mattersIt’s the politics of hate and fear. It’s the perfect ideology for the social media age.
Do you consider this Labour manifesto hard left?Christ, it's hard work at times.
The hard left is not going to win, screw what the right are doing at the moment. I'm saying Labour could and should come back in again, not all the way, but not so far out either. I mean, if they don't and we end up with another Corbyn what exactly do you think is going to happen again?
I'm in no way saying that's how it SHOULD be, but that's how it is. People becry, rightly so, these people voting for a government fecking us all over. But I also have to shake my head at how so many can watch this utter humiliation go down and just want more of the same.

They've shown little concern about racism from the Tories this whole election tbh.Let's see how concerned the media and electorate are with racism in the coming years.
and lie so much such that objective truths start appearing subjective to people who are not attentive which arguably majority of any voting populations are not.The solution seems to be pushing further and further to the right which suggests it's not centrism that's a winning strategy. It's fear and appeals to xenophobia and 'national pride' and the evil bureaucrats of the EU or the 'deep state', depending on where you are.
The left needs to be better at demonising its opposition to get those 'centrists'. But then they'll alienate their own core who are generally much stricter and less forgiving regarding their 'own team' than right-wingers who seem to accept just about anything from their own.
That's insane. They have to go back to the centre or they are finished.Next Labour leader should carry on what Corbyn was building. No way should it become centrist again.
If you guys over the pond feck up next year, I'll be very cross.
Jesus. I just couldn't!I'd love to skip it but there's gonna be several weddings early next year and they are petty enough to call attention to me skipping it months down the line. I'm just gonna go, drink myself into a stupor and try not to glass my uncle when he inevitably says something about how people shouldn't be allowed the safety net of food banks - that was last christmas meet-up...
Where do you find this info?Well my constituency apparently is a 92% chance of gaining from the Tories. I did my bit.
What a time to be alive. Im dancing in my front room. What a win.
