Election results 2019: Lib Dem leader Jo Swinson loses seat – BBC News

Our thanks to Ken for this (video, 2:51). He tells me that catching the result was one of the happiest moments of his life, as it was for so many of us. Some of the top comments:

Very difficult to be the prime minister if you can’t get elected to Parliament.

Lost to a woman so can’t even claim it was sexism.

Apparently she’s going to ignore the vote and stay on as a mp.

She dismissed 17.4 million votes as insignificant and ironically now loses her seat by just 149 votes.

I never thought in my wildest dreams that I would cheer the SNP. But getting this Harpy out of politics is a joy.

Actually, some people in Dunbartonshire East have died since they voted yesterday and some young people forgot to vote. In the name of democracy, we need a new vote, a people’s vote, in Dunbartonshire East!

This dreadful shouty shouty woman was hopelessly out of her depth good riddance.
