This could prove to be deeply ironic. I am off on Friday as it is the 10th day of my 9 day fortnight. Whether I stay up may depend on the results from the exit polls at 10pm on Thursday and how many beers I sink to drown my sorrows.

People don’t realise that 100 or so years ago – it was normal to work 7 days a week!

We should be working less and enjoying the benefits of productivity.

7.00 Vote with Labour Border Terrier at my side. Drop GF train-station

8:00 Bit of helping out at the local Labour Party – maybe driving people to the polling stations.

9:30 Go to Brexit coffee shop to tell the owner he’s confused about free broadband again.

10:00 Then to work for a bit. (work for myself but mainly on twitter.)

18:00 Election meal out. Maybe a medium-red steak. Certainly not bleu though.

20:00 Settle down with the telly flipping between channels/twitter/here.

22:00 Exit Poll time – make or break. See if Dr Moderate is correct!

22:15 Give or take a stuffing from Binners depending on result.

22:30 Cup of Coffee

23:30 Laugh at Buckethead and watch those early fast results come in. Watch the TV pundits over-analyse the first results and try to predict things. It’s early days yet. Back to the studio or community centre guff.

23:45 Cheese and biscuits.

12:00 A brandy or two.

01:00 Go over to pistonheads to watch all the people who are leaving the country sound-off. Check to see if Katie Hopkins is booked on a plane yet.

02:00 Bed for a bit – but awake checking Twitter all night. (Indigestion – nervous election toilet trips with phone.)

06:00 Get up – be happy or deflated.

I am in a Labour stronghold with majority over 11,000 🤔

Very hard to challenge that.

Wish this had come out a few days ago; Labour could have used it.

Having said that they have failed to make much reference to johnson’s lie about securing ‘great’ trade deals of any kind by end of next year.
They are handed opportunities but fail to capitalise on them; it’s almost as if they don’t really want to win.

We need pics of STW’ers dogs @ polling stations, it will make us smile if nothing else. @rone

Yep!

Isn’t that Catist?

I wouldn’t say they were entirely pointless.

My furniture isn’t going to wreck itself, is it?

They are handed opportunities but fail to capitalise on them; it’s almost as if they don’t really want to win.

Johnson’s election plan is to lie about how easy Brexit will be, and that it’ll be beneficial. Corbyn’s election plan is to try and pretend Brexit doesn’t matter, and that it’s irrelevant whether it happens or not. The Conservative manifesto ignores the cost of “getting Brexit done” over the next 5 years, and Labour’s grey book makes no mention of the difference in tax revenue expected based on different referendum results. How do you capitalise on Johnson’s nonsense without having a clear idea to put forward of what will happen as regards his core message if you are elected instead.

You can feast on #dogsatpollingstations tomorrow then. Both Instagram and Twitter will be chock full of pictures all day.

Who’s taken Friday off so that they can stay up and watch the results come in? Fess up… who’s as sad and tragic as me?

Working Friday night shift instead of day, plan is to go for a night ride* and get back in and showered ready for the results coming in about 1am onwards. The question is how many more calories will I eat in biscuits/chocs etc than I burned on the ride 🤣

* weather dependant. If it’s shit out I’ll go to the gym instead.

Prediction?.

The dream ticket, Nicola and Jeremy, annoys the **** out the gammoners, Scottish Labour distraught, jackson carlaw apopletic, indyref 2 delivered, we get the hell out of dodge after finally growing a pair of baws and voting yes, and the cherry on the cake?.

That smug arsehole swinson loses her seat.

🙏🏻

Prediction? Tory minority gov; no support from any other party unless major changes to WA; DUP to carry a grudge – refuse to support tories irrespective of any changes to WA and size of bribe.
If I’m right, johnson to go in 3 months and Corbyn won’t be far behind.

there’s a chance we can kick out the Jake Berry slime ball but only through a Labour win.

If anything other than a Tory maj is good, you know what you need to do…hold your nose.

How come people are commenting on Postal Votes now?
How come postal votes are even allowed to be counted until tomorrow night?
Apparently Dominic Raab knows and has hinted and Laura Kuenssberg has reported exactly what she’s been told to say by Tory HQ in the usual manner!

Id disagree completely, never underestimate the cotton tops! They’ll be out whatever the weather…

Yeah. If anything it’ll probably keep the first-time voters away.

How come postal votes are even allowed to be counted until tomorrow night?

Apparently, PVs are opened and checked prior to counting. The parties are allowed to have representatives present. They’re not supposed to see the marks on the ballot papers but they are often visible (through the paper from the reverse). Thus, the parties get a “feel” for the numbers.

Is it a realistic proposition that Bojo may be unseated in Uxbridge?

Tory minority I reckon

If this isn't election interference @ElectoralCommUK I don't know what is; the day before the polls open! pic.twitter.com/Gu9JUoHZpF

I’m not sure it really is breaking the law fwiw, but anyway could be key, a lot of postal votes for Tories in early, especially if oldies worried about bad weather , Johnson has had a shocker the last few days but their votes are safe anyway even if polls showing a narrowing so yeah Tory minority

At the least we can hope Johnson & Tories are crapping it tonight, I imagine Johnson has already hit the vodka
