Why is she even there?
Theresa May interview has been utterly dreadful.
What a terrible election for the Lib Dems... I'm still amazed now that the party allowed Nick Clegg to lead it into this election.
There's a Lib Dem deposit count on Twitter.
Are they counting yet? I'm used to elections calls being made in like 40 minutes...
It is insane how split different regions seem to be this time around. Scotland, 'The North', London, Wales, Northern Ireland, South West, The Home Counties... Ideological blocks in the country.
David Lammy giving it to Kay Burley on Sky News.3-1! The Tories are making a come back. It's ON!
Hahahaha, Alan Johnson was doing quite well until he said "in a way all three parties have lost".
Obviously people in this country want to privatise the NHS.
Red button?
Swindon North's results looking very bad for Labour, in line with the exit poll.
How does a former Lib Dem voter switch to UKIP... let alone the Tories? Can't get my head around that at all...
Reports that some Scottish constituencies have turnouts of 75%+.
I think that's a 'specialist' channel you are watching there, mate.
Yup. Sad night ahead.
Does anyone actually believe that the 'economic mess' wouldn't have happened had Conservatives been in power? I guess they must do since the Tories bang on about it so much.
Tactical vote? I think a lot of people have voted against Labour primarily to keep the SNP out. The Tories have ran their campaign on a message of fear of the prospect of that coalition.
I know a former UKIP voter who's switched to SNP for this election.
I don't get it... did a coalition government suddenly change their entire world view?!
Could be Lib Dems going back to Labour, while huge portions of the Labour voted have (semi-unexpectedly) collapsed to UKIP.
A lot of people just vote for whoever is biggest that are not Labour/Tory.
Must avoid making politically incorrect joke about 'BBC'.
Yes, loads of people think that. Mental, innit?
Someone on Twitter is counting how much the Lib Dems have lost in deposits. Up to £2000 so far.
They prob just voted Lib Dem as they liked Clegg. Certainly not informed voters
Do you believe it?
Oh yes. I am sure that the Tories would have kept us in economical prosperity whilst the global markets crashed, seems totally logical.
This guy was voting for UKIP like...a year ago, yet is now voting SNP a few months after the election since he feels they're best for Scotland. Maybe he's just going tactical because he hates Labour or something.
What was the point in Theresa May even being there? She literally wasn't willing to offer anything to any question. They should have sent her on her way earlier.
Galloway demanding a recount.Did Galloway lose? I hope so.
Oh FFS. The man is such a fool.
I'm of Pakistani origin and was the only minority in a school with 800 white people. I'm not sure whether I got off in racial abuse because Scotland is more progressive or whether because I was 6 foot when I was 14 years old and was friends with most of the people likely to cause trouble. There was a kid from bradford who moved here when he was about 15 and was ethnically indian and got a shit load of abuse in his time at our school so I guess I can't really claim my community was any better.
My family is based in Nelson down in England which seems to be split between the Pakistani community and the English community. The last time I went down there I was amazed by the lack of multicultural presence there. I don't think that kind of community is healthy to be honest and it creates an us against them mentality which I seriously disapprove of. I personally lay the blame towards the pakistani families who prefer to send their kids to mosques and schools where they will never encounter white people. What kind of experience is that?
Anyway that's just my opinion and I've never lived down there...No, not at all, only an idiot would. There are plenty of fecking idiots out there, is the thing.
Hardly any movement to Labour it Putney either. They weren't going to take it but they should at least be getting a decent swing. Exit poll looking more and more right...
Rumors suggesting that Farage has lost.
