They've had about 20 losses haven't they ? So need a dozen gains to hold a majority

Theresa May has been re-elected as the Conservative MP for Maidenhead with 37,718 votes. Although she won about 2,000 more votes than in 2015, she has a diminished (yet very comfortable) majority of 26,457 votes.
In other news from the constituency, Lord Buckethead won 249 votes.  |

Yes Tobermory. No chance of Tory majority as far as I'm concerned. Not my pocket talking as no bet here.

ITV pundits speculating May will go

..... UKIP leader Paul Nuttall has failed to win the seat of Boston & Skegness - coming third behind the Conservatives and Labour.
There has been a recount in Hastings & Rye, the seat of Home Secretary Amber Rudd. |

The cabinet will tell her to go tomorrow imo

Certainly looks like no majority now tbf
These politics markets never cease to amaze |

By:
I'm about £100 green on Boris , better on Davis and Hammond
|

By:
'No overall majority' now at 1.03!!
I want to go to bed, but my profit is going up, up and up and I am reluctant to cash out |
|
By:
Boris is a nutcase, surely not a hope in hell with him at the helm
 |
|
By:
so, does hung parliament = brexit on hold or cancelled completely?
|
|
By:
Maybe not tomorrow but soon I agree.
|

By:
brexit killed two Tory leaders
 |

By:

|
|
By:
boris for me is about £160 but my david davies is £1313 !

Nicola Sturgeon: it's been a "disaster for Theresa May" - her position is now "difficult".
|
|
By:
Salmond
"No way May will ne PM in 24hrs if no majority" That 1.7 looking like a lay |
|
By:

Only 2 seats in it, still over 200 to go
this majority aint over |
|
By:
The BBC's Nick Robinson ponders whether the Conservatives will take the view that Theresa May "has gambled and lost big time and punish her for it".
He says if the Tories were looking for a charismatic figure they would turn to Boris Johnson, but if they were looking for someone serious to deal with Brexit, that would not be him. |
|
By:
I agree about davies, tobermory. The problem is because I have over a thousand pounds profit on him it is going to be difficult for me to decide to let it run or cashout. There is so many possibilities in the 'next prime minister' market.
I have cashed out in the 'no overall majority' market for £404 profit. Anyone have views about the next prime minister market. I will have to go to bed soon but I do not know what to do. |
|
By:
James , those 200 seats are almost all safe seats that are factored in to projections.
Tories need several gains to hold their majority, not sure if there is a single gain in there |
|
By:
It is over as far as a majority is concerned James, that ship sailed two hours ago.
|
|
By:
getting desperate
BBC reduces Tory seats from 322 to 318 but with DUP takes to 327 |
|
By:
Agree tober, looks done and dusted
It's not though. One thing that does seem certain to everyone on tv so far, is that May will have to go. Surely she should be odds against if the no majority does come in as expected |
|
By:
DUP are loonies ffs
|
|
By:
dup got 10 seats
|
|
By:
sinn fein don't take their seats either so the tories will definitely have some sort of effective majority to govern at least in the short term
|
|
By:
What happens in the "Primeminister after election" market if may steps down in favour of an unknown not in the market?
