My poll got it spot on...unfortunately.


How do you feel about the result?

The Conservatives got what they deserved Teresa May put the interests of the party before that of the country, in thinking she would get a landslide now she has lost her majority so now going forward this government has power but in reality has no power.

First, congratulations to Labour, who fought the best campaign and did better than almost anyone expected.

Second, it's a disgrace that May is trying to remain as PM. The Tories are entitled to try to form a government, but not with May in charge. She called the (unnecessary) election with a specific objective, failed to achieve it, and should go. I hope some of her colleagues shaft her over the weekend.

Interested to know your views on the SNP performance, and the relative recovery of both Labour and Tories in Scotland.

Well I think voting Tory in general is disgusting but I have just always been taught that we don't vote Tory. If people done it based on policy I could maybe accept it but it was just because Ruth shouted about the union the most. I think mainly it was the opposition to indyref2 for that got the other parties seats but Labour is a little different. That will have been a big factor for them but Corbyn caused some Yes supporters to switch to them this time.

@thatscottishguy: Thanks. I wonder if central Scotland's strong socialist tradition was a factor too. Jimmy Maxton, red Clydeside and all that. Corbyn's old-fashioned left-wing platform might have been particularly attractive in those parts.

Found it tempting myself but don't trust the party and would rather indy.

benjonson99 totally agree with you mays arrogance thinking she would keep power with a landslide victory and a greater majority to wield her poisonous policies on the poor and needy of the united kingdom went tits up although she still is in office it is only been propped by a smaller party so I say congratulations to corbyn and the labour party and the liberal democrats and other parties for help thwart may

I said in recent elections. They were dead up here until Corbyn saved them. Still cannot trust them though as much as I like Corbyn. SNP just won a majority of seats while saying they will push for independence. Just like they did in the Scottish elections last year.
