He’s perfect as he’s McCluskey’s sock puppet

I would like to think Corbyn’s party members would be so peeved off with him they’d defect and create a new alternate labour party...something I suspect Tony Blair was interested in orchestrating (with him running it in the shadows). But as always with career politicians, they never have the ***** and conviction to do it...

Same could be said with pro remain Tory MPs that defected, in the end they just sided with the Lib dems.

I’d rather they didn’t bother at all, all it ends up with is the news almost perpetually nitter nattering about spectulative nonsense over a poll suggesting that this or that may or may not happen....FFS shut up stop padding talk about something else and just give me the proper results when they are declared.

Labour is a socialist party and Corbyn is a real socialist. Blair and his ilk are really liberals using the labor party to defeat the fptp two party system. The last time the labour party was socialist was in the Kinnock era, since then Labour had been a centrist party because Thatcher made socialist unelectable!

Well I held my nose and voted Labour. Let's see shall we. I live in a Tory stronghold...anything to stop De Pfeffel and his stakeholders.

It is not just the exit polls they are not allowed to talk about, it is the whole Election thing : It is part of Election Law dating back years, when voters where persuaded to change their vote on polling day.

Absolutely thumping endorsement of the 'Leave' the EU referendum.
Total rejection of anyone who stood against leaving the EU
Labour, Corbyns Marxist doctrine smashed.
Liberals shown the door by Leave voters

What this result has done is push all those who stood in the way of democracy into the English Channel.

You wont hear from the likes of Miller, Blair, Major, Grieve, Soubry, Steve Coogan,, Lineker, Swinson ever again.
Edit, The list gets better Chukka, Grieve, Guake

A stable Conservative government to drive through policy.

If you were on the wrong side of the referendum, you are going to endure the rest of your life miserable

It clearly shows the extent of Conservative victory. Smashing the so called 'Red Wall'

Labour as we all know are just a party of immigrant London voters. They have utterly betrayed the traditional midlands and northern support. Constituencies that have never been Tory or for the last 70 years are now blue Tory.

Democracy has had endure over 3 years of betrayal.

Democracy has acted against those who ignored the referendum

No, the country would have to be mostly Jewish for that to be the case What put him in the coffin was the outrageously unaffordable free-for-all manifesto he announced, the smears was just the nail.

Everyone remembers that the austerity we have now is because of Labour overspending before...Nobody wants that again!


And his IRA sympathising is not a fabrication IRA hatred round here runs very deep.

I think it's pretty clear the silent majority want to leave the EU...that's been what the election has been about. It is a wake up call to all the other parties, particularly the Lib Dems who have been annihilated. I guess now we find out if De Pfeffel is going to revert to his previous centralist stance...

Yes, the media and London biased reporting often has no idea what the rest of the country wants, that also goes for some politicians and figureheads too that tried to undermine what should have been sorted out years ago (despite me being a remain voter, this needs finishing now).

I’m impressed by the 67% turnout, in fact humbled as I thought it was going to be a lot lower than this. There clearly can now be no argument for politicians continuing to undermine Brexit. And clearly leftist policies as well as green ones are off the agenda for the majority of the country.

A lesson for a lot to learn...the shouty people ramming what they think into our heads do not have the power or influence, its time people learnt that this type of belittlment of others (Brexit voters = stupid, Torys = eletist scum etc. ) have no place and only cement opinions of those that keep their thoughts to themselves.

Perhaps in future those that resort to wide brushed insults towards people of a certain political opinion should be more careful on the words they use and the influence of those that read or listen to it.

It doesn't change the fact that most leave voters are ignorant, thick and racist, it just highlights how thick they are that they voted in a party who will make life worse for them! Still, the Daily Fail will tell them everything is rosy, and they will lap it up. And like the Tories blaming Labour for our current economic mess, they will still try and blame the EU for our troubles!
