Blackbriar 8,568 Posted June 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2017 Tories up 7000 votes in Sunderland and Labour down they still won but its a safe Labour seat I hope its a sign of things to come Like I said, it doesn't seem quite right.....there's just something that feels wrong about the exit poll. Can't put my finger on it......They seem to be doubting the exit poll on BBC now Definitely spotted some gentle back-pedalling just then ! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nik_B 3,790 Posted June 8, 2017 Report Share Posted June 8, 2017 Think I will go to bed, I will be shocked if the cons dont get a majority. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blackbriar 8,568 Posted June 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2017 The exit poll was done by a collaboration of BBC, ITV and Sky (before we get all anti - BBC.......) It's just been said that "we may have to recalibrate our forecasts"...... The pundits and experts (what do they know is ?) are beginning to look a bit 'tense'... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BGD 6,385 Posted June 9, 2017 Report Share Posted June 9, 2017 40% of the country voted for a proudly socialist manifesto and Jeremy Corbyn is the most successful Labour leader since Blair. All in all a good night Quote Link to post Share on other sites

All in all a good night He certainly had a better campaign mate, the results speak for themselves. I think a lot people have seriously underestimated how split the country remained since Brexit.....;-) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BGD 6,385 Posted June 9, 2017 Report Share Posted June 9, 2017 (edited) 40% of the country voted for a proudly socialist manifesto and Jeremy Corbyn is the most successful Labour leader since Blair. All in all a good night He certainly had a better campaign mate, the results speak for themselves. I think a lot people have seriously underestimated how split the country remained since Brexit.....;-) Aye he did a bloody brilliant job against all the odds and not for the first time, just look at both leadership elections. Folk are finally starting to realise just how good he is at campaigning Edited June 9, 2017 by BGD 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
