Took the Hung Parliament 5/1 offer from SkyBet a few weeks ago! 👍

Another election by the Autumn. Scottish independence gone for a generation at least. This weakens any chance of a border poll in the North. The D.U.P. c**k a hoop and lining up to support the Tories. S.F. finishing off the S.D.L.P. but not much use when D.U.P. have the ear of the Prime Minister

You can't say anything is gone for a generation when the system is so polarised. The people are all;over the place.

Is abstention a Gerry Adams thing ? Would younger Shinners be likely to change the policy when he moves on ?

Missed out on better odds elsewhere, too.
Angry with the Scottish electorate. Large swathes of rural Scotland voted tory. The farmers will be whinging even more when all their grants disappear. Turkeys the lot of them.

Probably in a double with O Briens 40/1 winner last Saturday

Corbyn' policies are as bird brained as Micheal Foot's back in the early 80s.He has yet to learn that commmunism/socialism is great as long as someone else pays the bills.

Election should render the DUP members at Westminster surplus to requirements at Westminster.SNP had their best ever election last time,just like SF they deliver little or nothing,and a lot of Scots are beginning to see through them.

Overall this could be as bad for Labour as 1997 was for the Tories.

Hung Parliament my arse!

At least we'll see the end of Teresa May.  God forbid a coalition that has the DUP in it tho.

Will never happen, not even the hateful tories will align themselves with the backward homophobes of the dup.

Corbyn could be PM here in a coalition government......... It could hapen.

may does not even have the class to do the right thing and step down, what an arrogant wee woman she is.

I think you give the Tories too much credit, they'll certainly jump into bed with the DUP. Even their own members are tweeting about the new hospitals that will spring up in the North.

Maybe but they would be a last resort and there is just too much downside to aligning yourself with the knuckledraggers, which of course will be exploited by a resurgent Corbyn and the labour party.

You have the Tories and D.U.P. desperate for power. Of course the Tories will pull in the D.U.P.  They are on the phone already. Arlene Foster has strengthened her position. If they can manipulate the Tories they won't be too bothered about the Stormont county council

Theresa May sought a personal mandate and increased CON vote to the highest level since 2001.

Jeremy Corbyn sought a party mandate and increased Labour vote to beat Blair's last vote.

It was back to the economy, stupid.  People voted in referendum against austere times and this has been repeated.  The UKIPers split between LAB and CON.

DUP have called out the vote and set back any notion of a border poll for many years. 46.3% Unionist  41.1% Nationalist

DUP    36.0
SF    29.4
SDLP 11.7
UUP    10.3
APNI 7.9
GRN    0.9

Biggest danger for SF is that DUP get another Assembly election from CONs and put themselves back into the driving seat.

The demographics are against the DUP.

This is very good as well

Nor should they be, the unionists/loyalists should be ashamed of themselves backing this scum Foster after her complete and utter gross neglegence/ corruption in relation to the RHI ponzi scheme, they have absolutely no moral compass, stick to the fenians and remain loyal to Lizzie and the union is all they cling to, pathetic bastards!

Tories plus DUP won't be enough for a strong and stable Brexit means Brexit government
