  • Reform predicted 13 seats a bit concerning - could be some serious support there. UKIP managed 1 MP in 2015 but had 12.6% of the vote share.

    Feels less like an electorate voting in Labour, and more like people melting away from the Conservatives.

  • Very much this. Despite the massive labour majority it feels a little anti climactic somehow. That may be because my gf fell asleep on the sofa and the cat was playing outside. Hoping to catch up on all the portilllo moments in the morning though. That’ll be a wonderful thing to wake up to.

    Also the C4 coverage felt like just another 24hr news piece with lots of sniping. Don’t think the exit poll result has really sunk in yet for me and so heading to bed and looking forward to the detail and actual results and reaction in the morning.

  • That could be where the exit poll is least reliable though.

    It's likely they've polled >20% in lots of places but they'll be close to Labour and Conservatives and the exit poll might not be picking up on that nuance.

    Fingers crossed they end up with nothing obviously.
