Me too..confusion galore! I thought there was an election yesterday haven’t been able to find results. I’m assuming the Brexit party and tommy Robinson lost since no news of them has been reported ....correct?

No, there is an election this weekend, but it is not for the UK parliament.

It is for the European Parliament, which is a powerless body where a lot of fringe parties usually do well because voter turnout is so low because there’s nothing at stake.

The reason the results are not known is because the rest of Europe still hasn’t voted. They can’t even release the exit polls until Saturday.

Since yesterday people are voting for the European elections, votes end on Sunday, it is likely the main UK parties will lose all their seats to Nigel Farrage Brexit party in the Euro parliament
