    EU Election results

    As expected for the Brexit party.

    Terrible night for Tory and Labour.

    Very good night for the Dib Lemmings and the Greens.

    Tommy Robinson got laughed at.......real humiliation.

    So.......Euro hating Corbyn starts suggesting Labour are going down the Remain route.....possibly.......i wonder why?

    To be honest,if I was a remainer I would be voting Dib Lemming because they have been the most honest about wanting to stay.....a vote for Greens or Change UK is a waste if you want to stay.

    I wonder if we’re reaching a point where it’s so polarised that the Tory Party have no choice other than to risk going all out for a hard Brexit to stop Farage wiping them out at a possible short term election and Labour going all out for Remain to kill off the Libs and Greens?

    I think the lust for power on both sides makes this highly likely now.

    If Labour don’t change to remain and the Tory’s go hard Brexit Labour will be slaughtered in a general election.

    I reckon Labour’s best hope is to write off their “leave” voters.

    If they ditched Corbyn now for a moderate and went Remain it would be a very close election result.

    One point that nobody has mentioned is the fact that, and I think I'm correct, only approximately 35% of the population voted leaving 65% whose opinions we don't know. Why I'm making this point is that Remainers are banging on that if you add all the votes together there are more Remainers than Brexiteers. Utter rubbish because as I say we don't know how the the rest will vote. What we do know though is that a party who have been in existence for just weeks have wiped the board in this election.

    Totally agree! Whatever your view of Farage - he has charisma, charm and can relate to people of all backgrounds. Can’t say the same about May or that useless piece of c rap Corbyn.

    Let’s just get out of the EU quickly and untie those chains!!!

    Agree. These elections will send shockwaves through the Tories and Labour. They've hemorrhaged votes from the Brexit Party and Lib Dems/Greens becuase they're not clear enough on their Brexit positions.

    Expect a shift from both now if they want a chance to win the next election.

    You can only go off the votes that have been cast, I think it was 37%.

    If you look at it, pro remain parties won around 40% of the vote and pro leave parties won around 35%.

    However, no-one knows if the Tory/Labour voters are leavers or remainers and two thirds of the country didn't vote in this election.

    So I think the only thing we can all assume is that the country is still very polarised and divided.

    "You can only go off votes that are cast " Did I just read your quote right?
    52% voted leave on a two poll choice. So by your logic that wraps it up them?

    I tuned into BBC to watch the election results, after 10 minutes I had to change channels because of the remain bullsh#t coming from Emily Thornberry. She assumes all Labour members and voters want a second vote , maybe in London but not in the Midlands and up North. I was a party member up to a few weeks, nobody has polled us for our views. Last week I had a reminder, that I hadn't renewed my membership I'm finished with them.
    After switching from the BBC and flicking through the channels,I put Sky news on and to my horror Emily Thornberry had gone on that show.
    This morning the same remain media brainwashing is being aired,even though the brexit party got the most seats.
    On another note,shouldn't we make it compulsory to vote.
