That could be a *very* amusing result JB if it happens.

I remain pessimistic

I ran past the polling station this morning about 06:40 and it was all closed up with no sign of life. It struck me that there were no lampost signs this time. None at all. Clearly times have a changed as they used to be everywhere.

Voted about 7pm and there was one person ahead of me. Didnt look all that busy. Kids it turned out voted earlier. According to my son, my daughter almost voted Tory by mistake, but she denies it.

I predict an eight seat majority for the SNP in the relevant nation and interesting times ahead. Overall, a hung parliament.

I am in the same constituency as Happy Times. As the Labour candidate had support withdrawn by the party due to racism, it will be interesting to see how many votes she still gets. Quite a number, I expect.

(The withdrawing of support came after the date on which she could still be excluded from the ballot paper. The SNP and the Conservatives have both withdrawn support from a candidate each, for the same reason.)

Johnson didn't even vote in his own constituency. Not at all arrogant then.

Excellent thread folks & thanks to all the regular posters - I've read every single opinion over the last few months and it's been more informative than listening to Laura K et al.

Although my political leanings are probably very slightly right of centre, I'm a committed remainer and definitely non-independence although I like a lot of what SNP have done for Scotland.

I'm terrified of what will happen if BoJo gets a big majority & hoping for a hung parliament at the very least, but guess it will probably be +8 for the Conservatives.

Johnson did vote - just that he didn't go on the electoral roll in his own constituency, which is a break with tradition. Would be superb if he lost by a single vote.
