I think the map so far is fairly Tory friendly in terms of net seats. Lots of places where Labour were doing OK in 2018, in which they fell back in 2019 and 2021. I think some of the classic Tory places in the South could be very bad for them.

Looks like another shit night for Labour if I’m honest.

Yeah they seem to be losing more seats than gaining them.

[Tubby Isaacs]

They'd have expected to lose seats on what's been announced so far. The Tories have lost more though, with some horrors no doubt to come.

We're losing seats in places like Harlow though.

From the 2018 position. Not unexpected that they still aren't back there in Kippery seats.

[Tubby Isaacs]

Having said that, Labour are doing well in Southend.

Sorry following Britain elects which is reporting on individual seats.

[Tubby Isaacs]

BBC page now has Lab -5, Con -27.

[Tubby Isaacs]

Britain Elects aren't posting all the seats.

Various councils tweeting results as they come in. As I say, Southend is interesting in a good way.

[Tubby Isaacs]

I'm going to turn in, I think.

[Tubby Isaacs]

I was....

Great result in Cumberland.

[The Weeping Angel]

Yeah I saw that.

[Oboogie]

Looking very much as predicted by the polling so far; a bad night for the Tories, a good night for the LibDems and no nasty surprises for Labour. The more interesting results are yet to come though.

[The Weeping Angel]

Labour looking likely to gain Southampton, they've made gains in Redditch and Dudley and Worcester has gone to NOC.

[mattomac]

Not as bad as when I last posted.

My work place is now in a Labour stronghold in Wandsworth and Cumberland and Southampton look to have been taken and even the Tories are privately briefing that they’ve lost Westminister.

I can see that Tory -200 happening.

[mattomac]

Westminister has gone Labour.

London gains will do little to improve Labour’s seat tally in a GE. Strange night in bell weather areas. Labour gains in Stevenage, Southampton but losses in Nuneaton and Lincoln. Red Wall is sounding an even messier and lazy piece of shorthand as there were Tory and Labour gains in different constituencies under this umbrella title. Looks as if Johnson has solidified national division. Hard to blame Corbyn, Brexit or the economy, stupid for Labour losses. What price does Johnson pay in the so-called blue wall seats in order to corral the nativist vote? This night could show he’s bleeding more Tory Seats (to LDs, Green and Labour) to hold onto 2019 gains from Labour. LDs consolidating their Red Wall strongholds in Sunderland and Hull is an interesting trend to watch. What Starmer does know if he’s pissed off anti-Brexit voters (scorned Leavers as well as Remainers) is their votes ain’t going to the Tories.
