The collapse of SNIP is the only thing keeping the Tories from total collapse.

UKIP is dead as a party.
If Corbyn somehow cobbles together a governing coalition, he should pull Trump's invite- be an easy way to unite the British public behind him.
:lol:

You think this went well for Trump

:lol:
Sinn Fein and the SNIP generally abstain though there's rumblings the SNIP may join in an anti-Tory block.

75%, this result seems to be far, far more a rejection of privatization and fiscal conservativism than it is a rejection of Brexit- as long as May's successor promises more social spending and to protect the NHS they should be if not good then at least stable.
Sounds like Fiscal Conservativism is dead in the UK even Tories are blaming the results on cuts to social spending and excessive privatization.

I mean its much stronger than Trump's
Assange will say whatever he needs to to please his patrons in Moscow.
Is that Berlusconi's ex-porn star minister?
So you think between 2/3s and 3/5s of the American public is anti-Trump?
Yeah, that's pretty much how non-Trumpkins saw it-- if anything that's generous to Trump. There's a reason his approval is between 34 and 40% and trending downward.
True, but Italy has had what 2 governments last more than 24 months since WW2?
Makes sense, probably worried ol' Scratch will come to call in his marker once he retires.
One cabinet minister down.
You mean CNN drew the same conclusion that virtually every single observer outside the Hard Right bubble did?
Johnson is smart but also a walking gaffe machine, doesn't the Tory elite have some sort of charismatic back bencher they can promote and manipulate.

Also doesn't that still have May as a 2:1 favorite?
It's kind of shocking. Corbyn seemed like "the man who killed Labour (non-Blair edition)" 3 months ago but their manifesto (I think that's the term its been a while since I've worked with LP folks) was far more concise than May's and May ditching the debates was just unconscionably short-sighted.
