Brit/pol/ - Election Special, edition >At a glance COALITION CONFIRMED Most likely situation is a Tory+DUP coalition, meaning some people will be tricked into thinking they are getting a hard brexit while still getting 300k+ migration per year DUP already outlining a soft brexit as part of the terms for propping up an enfeebled Tory party SNP getting blown the fuck out Exit poll proving to be correct so far Nigel Farage will probably go back into politics. Conservatives might just about win it. Conservatives are just as bad as Labour
>Why did it happen? The number of UKIP voters going to Labour was underestimated. They ran a very insincere campaign. U-turns on social issues undermined her authority. People fell victim to the soft brexit meme. Manifesto negatively impacted Tory voting core.
>40% vote share >Only like 4 constituencies were decided by 1-3% in favor of Labor >Tories now have the joy of running an anemic and enfeebled government propped up by another party as they get blamed for all of the negatives that come with a soft Brexit
meanwhile
>Labor solidifies itself as a real force in British politics again >40%+ share of the vote >Corbyn takes Labor away from its Blairite and neoliberal tendencies >Shows that left-wing parties do actually have a future in western democracies and shows that social democracy is still well and alive >Provides a solid foundation plan for other social democratic and center-left parties to work with; appealing to the center and neoliberal bullshit is not a viable strategy anymore
But yeah, Labor totally didn't win anything today.

Gavin Gomez
Remain in EU in all but name and a Great British Firewall and full Internet censorship. Congrats on choosing the worst of both worlds.
>Bernie winning the election means getting cucked hard by a Republican Congress
That sounds like a fun alternate timeline to live in
Hunter Evans
leftists are so fucking retarded
nigel farage was as influential as most politicians even despite not being an MP
James James
So from what I understand, the Conservatives romped in the local elections, then actively set about killing their voters' enthusiasm before the snap election.
Now globalist May wants to remain in office and will use this as an excuse to go ultra-soft Brexit like the establishment wants. Is this correct?
Parker Turner
Im fucking pissed lads, UKIP didnt stand for the first time in over a decade and the almost 6 thousand vote swing went to mostly labour instead thus winning the seat.
Connor Parker
Northern Ireland, from what I could understand.
Oliver Flores

Ulster Scots and Scots surprisingly rally behind the union. Wales decided to fuck sheep instead becoming new most fucked country in a shocking brexit vote swing.
Adam Phillips
It's not like the sheep are going to fuck themselves

Nothing is forever user, but the longer people sit on their hands saying "w-we can't remove millions of browns because that would be racist!" the more entrenched they become.
