It doesnt seem to me that Reform are getting the share gains they need to get the currently projected 13 seats.
Its around 27% so far, which if continues, should equate to around 7 seats at Westminster. But what do I know. :)

At the 2019 election I remember the big price changes happening in the few seconds after 10pm exit poll embargo was lifted. This time prices were moving from about 21:58, presumably from those with inside info.

Probably the very same people who last week were slaughtering MPs for betting on the election date.

Nutcase Nigel talking through his arse again, claiming that no MSM channel have interviewed a Reform rep tonight. Obviously hasn't even been watching.

Good riddance to George Galloway. Hope we never hear again from this idiot, named after a cough medicine. :D

No, story of the night is Reform UK vote share. Meaning the UK has a big problem.
