Boris Johnson’s Conservative Party is on course for a huge majority in Parliament, according to an exit poll from the UK’s three main broadcasters.
The projections will be a big disappointment for Jeremy Corbyn’s Labour Party and suggests Johnson will be able to pass his Brexit deal comfortably.
The exit poll is usually fairly accurate but a lot can still change as the night progresses and actual results begin to come through. Here’s the exact seat numbers from the exit poll, which predicts a huge Conservative win. 326 seats are needed for a majority.
Conservatives: 368
Labour: 191
SNP: 55
Liberal Democrats: 13
Plaid Cmyru: 3
A handful of smaller parties have also been projected to pick up seats.

If the thread is ruined for you then you can blame Farage.
Are you really that dense—or just a troll?
Farage is a hero on the Brexit front. No question.
His party was just a ploy and dare I say it largely worked. We will see if it really worked wonders when we see if Boris delivers a real (hard) Brexit.
But his goal wasn’t to be in parliament or to get a party to take over parliament. He probably worked longer and harder than anyone for Brexit and he’ll get at least some form of result. Tonight is a victory for Nigel.
Those last minute polls ended up helping him...it scared the tories to vote.
Tonight on the news I saw Johnson’s “Love Actually” parody ad. It’s a scream!! He definitely knew how to campaign smart.
Íf anyone is dense here it is you...
Nigel caved, you said so yourself.
A hero doesn't cave when the fate of the Nation is a stake.
His position after caving?
Farage: I hope Johnson is true to his word and delivers Real Brexit.
Johnson's record on Brexit: Voting for the Theresa May and then using 95% or it.
Excuse me now but I am done babysitting you and this thread.
It’s pretty simple really - Farage put country ahead of party in this case. As a patriot should.
The Brexit Party might have won some seats if it had run against sitting Conservatives but he came around to accept the view that doing that might have meant no chance of any form of Brexit.
This is not a perfect result for Farage - but it is a better result than nothing at all, and he’s the primary reason Britain is getting what it’s getting.
The UK will leave the EU and that is the bottom line.
I was under the impression that the Boris plan was far from a hard Brexit. It seems that it gave the EU most of what they originally wanted.
Now is the time for Trump’s team to do a massive trade deal with Britain.
That is correct. And unfortunately too likely to be what Boris delivers at this point. But if he had any respect for the voters. He’d go for the real Brexit.
(And yeah, I would have liked Nigel to stand tough, but that was more my heart than head talking. I understand why he pulled back.)
inspired by your idea!
Hillary Clinton, Chris Steele Allege Boris Johnson Is A Russian Stooge
The Federalist
Sheesh I thought I was making a joke.
They act as if socialism were something good.
Socialism is a cancer just like Islam is and both lost big today in Britain!
No not just big, This is the most stunning defeat for the Left that i have witnessed.
Isn’t everyone a Russian stooge?
LOL
That wasn’t what was threatened. Farage negotiated to stand down. What we get to see is if Boris delivers a Brexit that Farage supports or if Boris will screw him.
Right now Sky is showing Labor 9 seats and Conservative 4 seats. Is that to be expected at this point?
I am not going to ask what your problem is as you clearly don’t realize you have one. You really need to figure out why you’re obsessed with Garage to the point of absurdity.
I really loved that ad.
Yes. The results are lining up with the exit poll. Labour should be winning all of these early seats.
