At the very least the police should pay a visit - he has been whipping things up in loyalist areas in the north.

If that exit poll is anyway near right, good riddance to Corbyn. Utterly useless as an opposition leader.

i said it weeks ago when this election was called. corbyn makes Michael Foot look wonderful.
if he has an ounce of integrity he should resign now. well should have done a long time ago imo.

Negotiations will state in January. Boris has the tools he needs now to get a new deal. The EU will not risk a no deal exit and Boris is bold enough to go out on one.

Scotland and Northern Ireland won't be apart of the UK much longer if this exit poll is anything to go by.

Based on what. Scotland won't be having a second referendum any time soon. That ship sailed with Cameron.

You don't understand Brexit if you think it's all done and dusted in January. There are countless aspects of the UK's relationship with the EU that will take years to fully separate out. Brexit will probably be the most used (im)"proper" word in the UK news media in 2020.

This was a Brexit election. Depressing stuff I feel sorry for the many decent British people, but they have been let down by the narrow minded brexiteers.

Brexiteers are decent people.

Not necessarily as this is first past the post.

Latest polls on independence in Scotland still has remaining in the UK ahead of leaving.

I'm leaning towards believing that Scotland want independence now given that they have 59 MPs and the exit poll has 55 of them being SNP.

Sky have messed up with Bercow - not great at all.

WUT ?

UK exports did NOT increase when they got cheaper because sterling fell.
And now its going to cost more ?

Car industry alone contributes £150Bn to the economy and most of production is exported to the EU and Turkey.

Sure a risen sterling, will mean a massive profit for the vultures who have been buying anything British over the past few months.


Don't be surprised to see a massive sell off of foreign owned British assets over the next few weeks.

Project Fear is a terrible, terrible thing; anathema to the unbridled truth.

an i ask you as a Tory Brexiteer supporter

Do you think Boris will have any sympathy for the DUP position on the withdrawal agreement? i.e. that it should be renegotiated?

Genuinely curious on your opinion - thread is moving quickly here but il keep an eye on it

Sterling surging on the new found certainty.

Good news for our exporters.

The Euro is also rallying against most majors - its a risk on result.

The first signs of sterling buying were at 19:30 this evening.

The UK still needs to carve out a new relationship with the EU. 'Get Brexit done' was a soundbyte to appeal to voters. The reality is that Brexit won't be done for years.

You'll be sorely mistaken . People are actively leaving the UK. The NHS will be vacated off staff leaving to better more affluent countries. It's already started and will now increase at pace.

I've been proven more right on this thread than anyone else.

This election is just another feather in my hat.

Remainers are now struggling to cling on to other irrelevant details.

Completely; he's coming across boring, repetitive, and not offering any kind of keen and intelligible insight.

He seems miserable that Conservatives have won.

The man is right. If he pushes ahead with this deal, the consequences will be dire. If he goes out with no deal and the EU wants a hard border, the republican response will just as bad.

There was massive money and PR behind project fear in the early days that dwindled out when they realised the people weren't buying into the spin.

The UK in time will be stronger and that is the nightmare scenario for Brussels.

Disgraceful tweet by Paul Mason. Tarring millions of well-intentioned voters in the most disgusting manner.

It's attitudes like that which promote Brexit.

He is a really horrible person just like that awful Barry Gardiner. I take enjoyment out of the fact they feel sick.

ITV reported a few minutes ago, before Gove's live interview, that Jo Swinson has lost her seat tonight.

Perhaps we should vote again? :eek:

Iv been watching him for weeks pal

• Wants to rip up the peace process
• Rip up power sharing
• accuses EVERYONE who is not DUP, of being ANTI-UNION
• implicitly threatens violence and public disobedience -rioting, which he has a lot of experience in from the flag protest

He is a thoroughly despicable character

The party needs to remove the Momentum cancer from it and quickly.

That is going to be a hell of a task but they need a more moderate leader to step forward now more than ever.

I've personal friends that have left.

Your refusal to think that NHS staff who are over worked and have been vilified by their pm and the national press will stay in a country that doesn't want immigrants is beyond parody.

English exceptionalism at its most amusing. Acting like the center of the world.

Seriously?? Not this again!

The EU have said in a veiled threatening manner "We will not cooperate with no deal" - i.e. the dozens of supplementary deals that comes with EU membership - the EU won't entertain any of them!

Johnson could now decide he wants no deal. The EU won't budge! He'd be back looking for trade and assurances on open skies and everything else before Valentines Day!

They do, but it is their own stupid fault.

Get Keir Starmer in an begin to restore viability for 2029. I say '29 rather than '24 as the damage is so severe.
