Re: The Cable Forum 2017 Exit Poll
If this exit poll is true and that is a very big if then this has been one very bad call by Theresa May to call a general election

Re: The Cable Forum 2017 Exit Poll
I'm hoping the polls are as accurate as usual lately because we need a single strong party to get us through brexit without it costing us disproportionately and that isn't labour or the lib dems. I have been surprised at how slack the tory campaign was it was almost as if they just took it for granted victory was theirs and didn't bother. We have a new guy standing for the tories in my town and no one has seen him or knows much about him beyond a paragraph on a pretty pathetic leaflet that was left on the doorstep.

Theresa knows that Brexit means Wrecks it (the economy) so that's possible but unlikely.

Re: The Cable Forum 2017 Exit Poll
Exit polls have usually been close to the result with the exception of 1992. But even if the exit poll has gotten this wrong by 20 or so seats and they maintain a narrow majority May is in trouble.

The market's are reacting badly as if the exit poll is correct then there could be quite a significant fall tomorrow on thr market.

Re: The Cable Forum 2017 Exit Poll
Oh fgs 1andrew1 give it a rest you've been predicting doom every step and none of it has happened and economic wise being able to once again freely trade with who we choose and how we choose has the potential to boost our economy. Brexit does not automatically mean economic ruin no matter how times you repeat it and if your so certain and believe so much in the EU let us know when your leaving the UK to go to your EU utopia and I'll turn up to wave you off.
May certainly hasn't given even the slightest appearence of really wanting this and it does beg the question why and if it comes out that the conservatives deliberately hampered their election campaign the backlash is not going to be pretty trouble is we have no real practical alternative that is even close to competent.

Re: The Cable Forum 2017 Exit Poll
If the exit poll is right it's pure chaos, no one can form a majority government here.

Re: The Cable Forum 2017 Exit Poll
Lib Dems holding firm on holding no pact, no coalition with either Labour or Tories.

Well l think someone said earlier on this thread about which leader would be resigning and Tim Farron was thr answer but if this exit pill is true then Theresa Mays position could be become pretty untenable pretty quickly.

Re: The Cable Forum 2017 Exit Poll
She has made a right screw up.
Makes you wonder if it was deliberate.

They're too small to extract meaningful concessions anyway plus if the exit poll is right they've made a minor recovery from 2015 which they won't want to throw away in a hurry.
