UK General Election 2024 - Results Day

[Shoat]

Wait what is this shit?

We're not done yet

Why are the BBC droning on about fucking Andy Murray?

 

[VoR]

Brighton Pavillion confirmed Green hold

 

[Slave]

Mark Harper OUT

 

[ILL ADVISED]

When is Liz truss!!?

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Jess Phillips looks pissed on channel 4

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Pissed as in angry, not drunk

 

[ZenGiraffe]

I missed the context for this, has anyone seen if the footage is on twitter yet of the protests during her count announcement?

 

[Star]

I mean great news generally, but we've held as Tory

[VoR]

Another 20,000+ Tory majority overhauled by the Lib Dems in Horsham

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Cleverly holds

 

[VoR]

James Cleverly survives

 

[Shoat]

I'm totally out of the loop on the Jess Phillips drama. Why was the Yardley election so hostile? Israel?

 

[FetchFugly]

Yes the Labour position on Gaza.

 

[VoR]

Hurry up Liz FFS!

 

[Shoat]

Yes the Labour position on Gaza.

That's a shame. I thought Phillips had been one of the stronger pro-Gaza voices within Labour.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Priti Patel survives too

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Alba continues to be irrelevant

 

[ILL ADVISED]

 

[VoR]

There's quite a few of them left to declare. Very interested to see how Selby & Ainsty goes given the by-election win. And Beverley, which was predicted to be Labour by many MRPs.

Selby Labour HOLD

 

[VoR]

BBC finally calls North Herefordshire for the Greens, confirming they've hit their target of four seats.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Hurry up Liz FFS!

I swear if we've stayed up for her just to hold it anyway I'll be furious

 

[FetchFugly]

ALLEGEDLY a few minutes until the Truss result

 

[Shoat]

Is the implication that Liz Truss has STORMED OUT before the result is made public? AMAZING

 

[auretz]

I know nobody else cares, but after a long wait my constituency (South Cotswolds) has finally been announced as a Lib Dem gain (by 10% over the Tories too!), meaning we have our first non-Tory MP in 200 years a little emotional! Chippenham and Devizes & Melksham also went Lib Dem, they’ve done amazingly here in Wiltshire (although they should’ve done, we’ve had leaflets almost every day of the campaign!)

 

[VoR]

Lib Dems up to 68 with 29 seats still to declare.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Following my panic early in the night about Scotland fucking up voting, I'm glad to see that we actually still can

 

[VoR]

Truss has fully done a runner, hasn't she?

 

[FetchFugly]

Where is the lesser spotted lettuce?

 

[ILL ADVISED]

Lib Dems up to 68 with 29 seats still to declare. Really want them to crack 70.

The 4 won by reform will be by some distance the main story though (the greens 4 will also be an after thought)

 

[Mugatu]

I'm finally back home and yes, I'm back at work this afternoon

3 Labour wins, 1 slightly unhinged pro-Gaza candidate who spent the entire evening prowling around the count in very tall high heels, shouted at the audience in her concession speech, then sang Free Palestine to the tune of I Want Candy before getting her mic cut off. Queen!

 

[Shoat]

I LOVE HER

Just as things were wrapping up, she gives us another moment

She really has stropped off in a tantrum hasn't she?

 

[ZenGiraffe]

I need to clock in to work in 15 minutes.

 

[Ellie]

Oh just throw a lettuce on stage instead. Hurry up.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

She literally has vanished!

 

[VoR]

This is too delicious for words.

 

[VoR]

OH 'ERE SHE IS

 

[FetchFugly]

She has deigned to turn up.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

The STANCE
