"Majority" of 104

Feel free to ignore if this has already been discussed, but what has the relationship historically been between the Tories and DUP? Is a coalition all but inevitable, or will there be a good deal of wrangling between the two?

Let's just say this, I'll be surprised if they form a formal coalition. It will probably just be some sort of soft association

Here's a map of coal mines in the UK. Anybody want to comment on what it looks remarkably similar too?

A swing of just 2% from Con to Labour would see the party make 40 gains at next general election. Current total 262. Need 320 for majority.



A swing of just 1% from Lab to Cons at next election would yield 19 gains. Enough for a clear working majority of 16.

This is based on 2017 right? Which website are you using? Please share !

May would want to hope that none of her own rebel.

That did not vote number is horrific... People should be proud to be able to have the right to be involved in the democratic process.
