Re: What a mess...
"How could May have got it so wrong?"
To be fair it seemed that everyone was forecasting a Tory landslide, The few last minute polls that showed it otherwise were generally dismissed as outliers.
When the exit polls were published at 10pm - everyone was shocked and very sceptical. That attitude continued for a while into the night - especially when some seats showed a large swing from Labour to Conservative.
An old proverb that May should have minded - "A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush".
Couldn't have happened to a nicer person.
