Unfortunately, I think this will end up with more gridlock, more of the same... I looked at all the parties. The BREXIT party runs too. So, whatever, I hope things work for an effective government.

Big win for BoJo and for Brexit and for the UK.

Only a few results are in, but they're painting a dire picture for Jeremy Corbyn and the Labour Party -- and the recriminations are well underway.

Corbyn, the socialist leader who dragged the party to the left after his upset win in the 2015 leadership contest, has now led the party to one of its worst ever electoral results, if the exit poll is correct. ...

"Corbyn was a disaster on the doorstep," longtime Labour politician Alan Johnson told Momentum founder Jon Lansman on ITV. "Everyone knew that he couldn't lead the working class out of a paper bag. Now Jon's developed this Momentum group ... I want them out of the party. I want Momentum gone. Go back to your student politics."  ... More at CNN

The antifa-types are rioting in London.

Andy Ngo @MrAndyNgo
Police in London are desperately trying to move the antifa protesters and rioters off the street. They are calling for a revolution and yelling "F— the police" and "Not my prime minister!" Masked antifa are joined by their Socialist Worker comrades.
