Wait, Labour weren't running? If you don't mind me asking, which constituency do you live in, as I thought Labour were running in pretty much all UK constituencies?

Labour don't stand in the 18 Northern Ireland seats or in the Speaker's seat (Chorley) so not quite everywhere.
 
Blimey, that's an even bigger Conservative majority than I was expecting! If that's even remotely accurate, then this is looking fantastic for the Conservatives and dismal for Labour...
EDIT: For those who haven't seen it, then here are the predictions in the exit poll:
  • Conservatives: 368 (+51 on last election)
  • Labour: 191 (-71 on last election)
  • SNP: 55 (+20 on last election)
  • Liberal Democrats: 13 (+1 on last election)
  • Plaid Cymru: 3 (-1 on last election)
  • Green Party: 1 (no change)
  • Brexit Party: 0 (new party)
  • Other: 19 (+1 on last election)

Don't worry guys, I'm sure Corbyn will stick to his guns and have another good go in 5 years time. Abbott will be there too if she can manage to put her shoes on properly as well.

Will Corbyn keep his job if the exit poll it correct ?

My personal guess is no. If he doesn't resign immediately, I think he will come under a lot of pressure from his party and he could even be forced to resign. This is quite a significant defeat if the exit poll is even remotely accurate; Labour's worst post-war defeat ever.

As much as I hate to say it, I think Corbyn himself and his somewhat hard-left stance on issues may perhaps have led to Labour's downfall in the exit poll. Corbyn is not very popular at all, and I do think he was a deterrent to a lot of people who could have voted Labour.

I imagine he'll be kicked out if he doesn't stand down.

I do like being part of the UK. But I want to see something new not another five (or more years) of Conservative government.

A ridiculous pompous thing to say, and Im disappointed to have a Tory majority too.

Not really, everybody is aware of the damage the Conservatives have done to our public services over the last decade. People are suffering and this has extinguished the last hope of some of them.

People have put their own interests first, simple as that, and I do judge them for it.
 
This is what happens when you sit on the fence on Brexit (or indeed repeatedly vote and connive to stop it) and therefore ignore your core voters throughout the country who won a democratic vote and wanted to be heard. Well, if the exit poll is correct, the people have spoken, again.
