Indeed, as I said she looks like she has cocked up... BUT when was the last time we could trust an exit poll.. I think she will have to go after a cock up like this, even if they get a majority, she has screwed up spectacularly.

exit polls can sometimes be spectacularly wrong ...... people asked how they voted when leaving a polling station often tell the questioners porkies

One would of thought they might be about. I suppose they went to the posher parts of the city.

They went on to get the majority. Having said that it could easily go the other way but I'm sure Corbyn won't be PM now. I'm pretty happy with a hung parliament if that's how it turns out.

the worst was I think when the forecast was for a massive Labour majority and it was spectacularly wrong they barely scraped in ..... Wilson I think
was right just checked Labour forecast 132 seats majority .... actual 3

Or would one be more likely to fib if they are already confident of a victory? Either way the exit poll is only based on about 1 in 1000 voters. That's not a great sample rate.

If the exit poll is anything like correct, then it's going to be interesting for the next few weeks. Boris Johnson might end up as pm yet.
