Exit polls

looks like the Exit polls were almost bang on. 30,000 sounds small compared to the number of voters, but it's a statistically rigorous sample number. something pretty weird would have to go on for it to be very wrong! of course, the close the predicted result, the more likely the chance of being only slightly out but produce a wrong answer - more likely with a binary referendum

You may well be correct, unfortunately a lot of them have fallen for the removal of university fees line!

Lets be honest though can you blame them? I can't.

Corbyn had two real tempters in his manifesto, university fees and the £10 minimum wage. If you don't examine the consequences then both sound great to a lot of people. The former means no huge debt before you start work and the latter is a 33% payrise for a lot of people.

Far too great a carrot for many people to ignore, as long as you ignore the fact there would be no economy left, and no jobs for them.

Mays manifesto was rubbish too, which didnt help.

Its not the end of the world though.
