I'm just glad the SNP are getting hounded out. I hope that smarmy cunt Angus Robertson cries himself to sleep tonight.

Gotta wait for the actual results rather than the exit polls, but this is looking great.

http://www.independent.ie/world-news/europe/britain/has-anyone-checked-their-wheat-fields-for-theresa-may-how-twitter-reacted-to-shock-exit-poll-results-35805287.html

The twitter memes are already great. Very promising for the EU if the results match the exit polls.

"Gary Lineker @GaryLineker
I think Theresa May has won own goal of the season."

"TechnicallyRon @TechnicallyRon
Pretend you're Thresa May by asking to interview for the job you've already got and then really fucking up the interview #GE2017"

A hung parliament is literally the worst possible outcome for both the EU and Britain.

How so? Much of this election was about May renewing and solidifying her mandate for her vision of Brexit. The less power she has, the less likely it is the UK gets to continue down this path and demand the hardest possible Brexit or no deal at all. There's other ways to look at it too, but it seems like the election backfiring on May is making the EU quite happy.

I don't think the EU really cares what majority government should be leading the country considering the fact that we're leaving in the next two years, they just care that we actually have a majority government. A hung parliament is only going to impede Brexit negotiations further, costing Britain more, and giving the EU more paperwork to deal with.

A landslide Tory victory was never going to be ideal, but it would've been better than several years of Commons squabbling.

PUNISHED NUTTALL

Voted Scottish conservatives. Had enough of SNP.

Corbyn is a fucking loony bin when it comes to taxes and infrastructure. I'm surprised not a whole lot of people are attacking him more on this.

The pretence that you can finance all these monumental spending increases off the back of high earners just because "they should be paying more" is shady as fuck. If you're going to propose these huge tax increases on the wealthy you need to be a bit more transparent than "hurr they can afford it and they deserve it" because ultimately you just end up with capital flight and corporations taking their businesses out of the country, along with their taxes and jobs.

It's almost as if they believe climate change to be a real and substantial threat and were going to continue the fight whether Trump pulled the country out or not.

I never said it wasn't. But please continue to act as if I'm downplaying climate change despite that comment being one of the only two fucking posts I made in the thread beforehand and nowhere did I say climate change isn't a problem seriously.

I find it funny how you always have to throw in a "but" and finger point whenever Trump does something incredibly retarded.

Please stop. I'm sorry but just because our president is the laughing stock of the world doesn't mean others are exempt from any sort of commentary. It's increasingly annoying how the situation with Trump is so far off the deep end that either I attack him and only him or I'm just scapegoating for him despite the 2:1 ratio in insults towards him.

Political ideology isn't as simple as "I either support him and hate everyone else or vice versa" and the sooner you accept that fact the better.

You're taking potshots at the people actually trying to mitigate a serious problem that's going to impact our lives for generations. I have my misgivings with the EU too, but to say they're "ego-stroking" for trying to pick up the slack when the world's biggest polluting country has just announced they're no longer going to be pulling their weight is rather odd. If that's "ego-stroking" then fine, but I'd rather have the EU ego stroke their way to solving a problem rather than them let Trump rock the boat for the rest of us.

You say you don't deny the seismic problem of climate change but you have an odd way of conveying it by attacking the people actually trying to minimize the damage.

I think what Trump did was absolutely stupid but this is such a petty thing to do. It's nothing more than a fucking ego-stroke. "Hey guys I know we all think it's stupid that Trump left the Paris Accords but I just want to let you know that we'll always be fighting global warming despite none of you thinking we wouldn't :^)"
