Not all of it. Us softies in the West have it easy. No need to wear those extra underpants here yet.

Can't believe it.
Here we are, big day, beer in fridge, TV tuned, dog locked away outside, big 'Keep Quiet' signs plastered all over the place and goodies ready for munching.
Switched on computer and expected pages of posts from all and sundry who've been spouting mindlessly on this and that in what seems like forever, and..... Silence.
No hint of an insult, nothing posted designed to offend anyone, no intelligent riposte from the flat earth bunch.. not even a humorous clip from the YouTube club...
It already feels like it was a waste of time getting up.
Very likely probably feels like that in the UK as well.
I'm going back to bed...

Except, of course, from you.
Are the flat earth bunch remainers or leavers? Tories or Brexit Partiers?

I think you're right to go back to bed. Please stay there for a very long time and leave your computer in your nursery.

There's no point worrying about the election results before about midnight-1am, which will be when the first sets of results will start coming in from what are usually Labour seats. I'm not expecting anything close to a final result before 6 or 7am at the earliest, so there's no point speculating foir me.

We're waiting until something important happens. There's little election stuff to report today.

I'm going back to bed...

IF these exit polls are correct...
Labour simply didn't understand what this election was all about.
As politicians, they didn't grasp political realities.
Corbyn will be lucky to survive but I suspect he'll do the decent thing and stand down.
Likewise Swinson although I doubt she'll go as quietly, her fingernails are longer.

That has been glaringly obvious for about 10 years.

Swinson will be doing well to hang onto her seat if the exit poll is correct. It’ll be interesting to see if there is unusually high tactical voting not picked up by the exit poll.

95% chance she’s lost according to this:

It's looking like Labour has secured the lowest number of seats in decades.
