FFS. Six seats left to declare which I assume is five remote Scottish island constituencies, and Hendon.

The remote island constituency of Shetland and Orkney was done by 6.30. Which is impressive, given they had to collect Shetland’s votes and fly them over to Orkney, and the plane wasn’t due to land until 4am.

Also South Basildon and East Thurrock, which you’d have to think is prime Reform territory, so I’m worried about that one.

Interesting — in Canada they release poll-by-poll results as they get them, so you at least get some sense of how things are going even if they’ve only counted one ballot box

Well, I was going to reply that it must be close and they would be recounting possibly multiple times, and I just saw Labour took it by 15 votes.
