The flute band, i mean the Scottish Tories, seem unusually sceptical about the exit poll, which surprises me.

Well if they're looking at about 8 seats or so in fucking scotland how the fuck are the expecting the Midlands Marginals down in England to suddenly flip for Labour?
 
Justin Tomlinson has held Swindon North for the Conservatives, with a 3.7% swing from Conservatives to Labour.

Prof John Curtice says so far we should be holding our nerve about whether the Conservatives are going to have a "modestly bad night" - or a terrible one.

This night may get more interesting...

Had to swap over to ITV temporarily due to Thornberry being such a smug looking bitch.

They're mostly rambling about twitter over here.

EDIT: Had to swap back as it's obvious she's actually three seats to the fucking wind.
 
David Dimbleby's getting attacked by a fly, and the Tories are apparently panicking about Gower and the Vale of Clwyd.

Her smug grin is very annoying. Almost as annoying as her inability to realise that her lot can't form the government.

Labour holds Newcastle Upon Tyne

It's still being reported to the Electoral Commission due to a lot of people not being on the rolls despite being registered. So expect a by-election if needs be.

Strike that, misread. it's t'other Newcastle which is being checked. Under Lyme not Upon Tyne.

Rudd is likely to lose her seat too...

EDIT: Ouch...

EDIT EDIT:

Labour MP Sharon Hodgson has held on to Washington & Sunderland West but the Tories have made progress.

The Conservatives were looking at a 5 point increase but the vote is up by 10 points.

The Labour vote was expected to rise by 14 points according to the exit poll but is actually only 6 points higher.

The subtle Tory win continues?

Tory vote up by 8% so far, and Labour up about 9% so far when they were predicting just 2% for the Tories and 15% for Laboyr.

UKIP vote appears to have collapsed about 50/50 so far and could inch one way or the other.

EDIT: Recount ordered for Rudd's seat.
 
Ken Clarke weighs in again.

Former Conservative Chancellor Ken Clarke says it was "worthwhile" going to the polls to try to get a better majority.

He says having the general election in 2020, as was planned, when Brexit would really be kicking in would not have been wise.

His guess is the Conservatives look as though they are "going to have a small overall majority".

"We're obviously going to have a very interesting Parliament," he says, adding that the worst possible outcome for the country would be a hung parliament.

Mr Clarke, a staunch Remain supporter, says if the Tories secure a small overall majority, it will enable "some deeper debate on a lot of issues", especially Brexit.

And uptight Jock bitchlet Mhairi Black could lose her seat to cucks.

As the night goes on, the atmosphere is changing. To begin with, everyone was talking about Mhairi Black, the youngest MP, retaining her seat.

The exit poll came in, with all the caveats, and in Paisley and Renfrewshire South, it suggests that Labour could take it from the SNP.

We are watching these piles very closely indeed. What's happening on the tables behind me is that - for Alison Dowling of Labour and Mhairi Black of the SNP - the piles are going up neck and neck.

There are observers around the room watching closely.

Not surprising. Northamptonshire is a blue county, and Kettering's MP is the cheapest if I remember correctly.
