Misleading headline in a way. This is based on exit polls which are little better than hamster paper.

I think exit polls are pretty accurate in Europe no?

This will be highly accurate they were outside polling stations etc. and interviewed 20k people

For them to get it wrong would be monumental.

It’s over..

However, there’s still a few things to watch out for I have posted in the Live thread

The “Conservatives” killed England, Labor will salt the ground so it can never grow back. Idiots.
