Well, it seems that May has just gone and shot herself in the foot. A hung parliament will provide many hours of amusement, I'm sure, and I wouldn't entirely rule out Theresa May stepping down from Downing Street as soon as this morning in two hours.
What really got me thinking is the constituencies map
It shows, amongs other things that Northern Ireland and Scotland are growing detached of the UK. It is especially dramatic when you look at the "border" counties in Northern Ireland. All of them Sinn Feinn (also Belfast West, but that's hardly any surprise). I have said it a million times on Twitter and I stand by it. Brexit is going to bring a united Ireland with it, and much sooner than we think.
In Scotland, well, the area around Aberdeen is Tory but the SNP has a strong hold of most constituencies, and their support will be crucial for the stability of any PM. Don't rule out indyref2 yet
Let's see how this ends but it looks like "fun in a bun"
