UK general election results live: Labour set for general election landslide as early results come inwww.bbc.com Keir Starmer is on course to be new UK prime minister with predicted Labour majority of 170, according to the exit poll for the BBC, ITV, and Sky.

Not exactly excited about Labour because of stuff like this, but I guess they are still a step up from the Tories... www.thepinknews.com/2024/07/02/k...

Keir Starmer says trans women don't have the 'right' to use women's spaceswww.thepinknews.com Labour leader Keir Starmer has said that trans women do not have the right to use women-only toilets or spaces, even if they have a GRC.

I'm so old I remember GOP hopes in 2022 for a Red "Wave." The UK is showing what a tsunami is.

Only took them 14 fucking years

Yeah...

Makes me wonder about how inherently sensitive UK public is to red scare. Corbin was routed even though he has more labor support and was more popular but couldn’t translate into electoral victory. This new guy is milquetoast Blair 2.0 and he won (obviously brexit and cabbage PM etc etc)

Lettuce, pray.

They’re just xenophobes.

The early results look like the Conservative vote collapse has gone almost entirely to the even more right-wing Reform and Labour's popular vote has barely changed, or am I not reading these correctly?

The exit poll suggests Conservatives shedding votes to both Reform and Liberal Democrats.

The early results are less than a dozen seats out of 510

There is some nuance, even though Labours top line vote is identical to 2019. They have lost a lot of vote share in places (Greater London) they dominated in 2019, and improved everywhere else. Overall same share of votes, but spread out way more, which is important for FPTP.

412 and counting now.
