This is an exit poll. Not the end result. We can only hope that the conservatives lose more than this predicts.

After 14 years of disaster it amazes me how anyone could vote for the Tories.

[shysociety]

Well, this is what happens to the tories when thy give tax cuts to the billionaires... and letting energy firms making billions off paying any tax...

[mattmainline]

The fact that gavin williamson could retain his seat shows exactly whats wrong with this country. Too many people still voted conservative 🙄🤮

[utubebroadcaster]

Conservatives were proud to have an 80 seat majority last time. Labour have blown that out of the water as the Tories will live in the wilderness for a long long time.

Poor Sunak Rishi will now have to be content with his 670M pounds stashed in the bank!

I remember when media were reporting it was ninety something percent that Hilary Clinton would beat trump. Polls can be way out and might be a few shockers on the board.

[meglobob]

After 14 yrs of terrible tory rule, this is much deserved. They need to be out of power for a decade or more. They need to re-learn economics and how to rule the country in a decent fashion for the majority...not just the top 5%.

[jimcourt]

BBC first mention of reform…. Stating that they won’t do as well as the poll. Yawn

[PremierCCGuyMMXVI]

This guy is so animated lol


As an American, the most equal equivalent I can think with the UK elections relative to the US is like the House of representative elections here in the United States except the speaker of the house becomes president lol
