Is that the first gain of the night? Labour gain from SNP.

Based on actual announced results (as reported by the Grauniad) at 1.30am BST, there has only been one changed seat, which was a Labour gain.

Just had a bit of a we dream, given Rudd's seat being under threat... How safe is May's seat? Please, please tell me it's in with a chance.

One of the safest in the country.

The London Tories are the ones to watch for big names losing their seats, although I daren't hope for Uxbridge as that would be far too good for reality.

Gobsmacking if this turns out to be true.

Much as I like Corbyn, he doesn't have the full support of his party, reaching out to others, some burned by past Coalition experience seems unlikely, and Labour would need to strongly out perform the exit poll to make it mathematically possible.

I genuinely cannot comprehend this narrative of Corbyn the great hero, dragging Labour to victory. Still not even likely to be the biggest party against this disaster of a PM.

I agree actually. While Corbyn has vastly exceeded expectations, the Tories were there for the taking.
