Bizarre that a seat that rushes to announce early because the decision is a foregone conclusion ends up with a change of party.

Long way to go etc etc, but even to the untrained eye, a Tory MP in a mining town just seems bonkers.

Turkies have well and truly voted for Christmas today.
All about Brexit which they think will make their country / area better.
Because majority Tory governments have great form for looking after working class areas don’t they...

It's too early to make judgements yet, but if the exit poll is anything like right, then I'm not sure the result can be "blamed" on one generation. For an outcome like the predicted one to happen, I would have thought most age groups would have had to have favoured the Conservatives and there might have been more than expected remain voters who thought the Referendum vote had to be honoured no matter what.

Tory mp in bridgend with the poverty they have there , do they really think boris is going to help them out there ?

Basically we had a crap leader and in these areas where there are very few immigrants they voted brexit

But it's like turkeys voting for xmas and they are going to get a right stuffing

And blame europe and immigrants again

Boris is a joke. I don’t think he will be good for the county, however

Corbyn was unelectable, and his polices only looked good to those living in a wonderland

That was an easy one to answer. Labour won’t recover from this for the next election either.. to big a gap. 10 years of tories coming up.

So pretty clear. Poor polices don’t win votes.

Listen to the labour MP’s on your TV... they are saying Corbyn was the issue on the door step. Corbyn and his polices

Because of his policies or because people have been swayed by the media opinions on his policies, especially tax evasion and making the most wealthy pay?

Labour candidate for stoke is fuming , fully expects to lose his seat and blames corbyn and his lot for the heavy defeat

And in my opinion , he is right

Together with the leavers from non immigration areas that voted tory

Shame on the lot of them , they will get stuffed by the very party they voted for

I do.

If a bomb goes off somewhere, we're reliant on the news provided.

I believe we've been convinced, as a country, that tax is bad, we don't want to pay it, but we should have top public services for nothing.

Anyone believing the political news network is an unbiased, honest account are idiots.

It seems at election time people prefer to hear the vague, jingoistic battle cries even if they're led by a bigoted muppet. Britain is a conservative country; it takes more of an effort to get Labour in and it seems a lot more has to be aligned for that to happen.

I think you are miles off on a lot of this. I'd not dismiss anyone who watches/reads the news as an idiot. I'd also suggest that to assume that you've got the insight to see the bias but the great unwashed do not is a bit rich, too.

Calling half the country idiots and fools, as yourself and many others have done for the last three years, (Steve Coogan, speaking this morning, is a prime example) merely entrenched the Brexiteers views. Allied with a leader who was totally unelectable then it seems that Labour has got everything it deserved.

Re: Exit Poll Its PM Boris with 80 odd majority

Former soft tory mp Heidi Allen has just commented

What we have is a very dangerous situation , a tory party purged of its liberal side leaving a hard right conservative party with a fragmented , ineffective opposition

I think its thatcherism all over again and what kept her in was a weakened opposition

Maybe we have to accept , those of us who don't vote tory that the only way to defeat them is to form a coalition party made up of liberals , labour , independents , basically the sixty percent who don't vote tory

Either that or the labour party has a root and branch reform from top to bottom

Well I am afraid that the truth hurts ......people who are going to face the full force of free market capitalism have become turkeys voting for xmas

They are going to get shafted and they will face the consequences

Re: Exit Poll Its PM Boris with 80 odd majority

A right sort that Heidi Allen.

I note the Tory Party are now massively odds-on to take the Beast of Bolsover Dennis Skinner's seat which he's held since 1970. It has never returned anything other than a Labour candidate. Even in 1983 under Michael Foot's leadership when the party was hammered Skinner held it with a 14,000 majority.

It's not funny. People are too stupid to vote for policies they like.

It's the same here. People thought they hated "Obamacare". Until they found out it was the Affordable Care Act and it was where they got their healthcare plan from.
