Lefties unable to comprise their glee at projected Labour landslide

Overjoyed leftie Carol Vorderman has led the celebrations amid a projected Labour landslide, declaring ‘let’s get the party started’ as she toasted with panel members. 

The former Countdown presenter has become well-known for her anti-Tory tirades on social media and did not let up this evening as she launched into an explosive rant about the party.

Following the results of the bombshell exit poll, Vordeman bellowed ‘I think we should get the party started’, as she appeared on Channel 4‘s TV election coverage.

The dramatic exit poll shows Labour winning 410 of the 650 seats — a majority of 170 — just short of the 179 achieved by Tony Blair.

Speaking on the programme tonight she said it was ‘time to get the party started’ in what is expected to be a disastrous night for the Conservatives.

Trade unionist Mick Lynch said he was ‘determined to see the Tory’s crushed tonight’

Vorderman accused the Tory party of 14 years of ‘corruption, and lies and gaslighting’.

She told Channel 4: ‘Everybody out there is thinking: no more of the lies, the deceit, the corruption’.

Meanwhile, union baron Mick Lynch said he was ‘determined to see the Tory’s crushed tonight’.

In an interview with Sky News he said he had ‘particular favourites’ that he wanted to see ‘go down’ and admitted there was ‘no shame’ in saying that. 

He said he had a ‘long list’ of names including the current Secretary of State for Transport Mark Harper and Grant Shapps, Secretary of State for Defence. 

Lynch said: ‘I think they’ve done the country a disservice and I think they need to go and I think that’s what the public is going to do’.

The Tories are expected to be slashed from the 365 secured less than five years ago to just 131 – their worst performance in modern political history. 

A host of big beasts, including Jeremy Hunt, Grant Shapps and Penny Mordaunt could fall victim to the purge. 

Welsh Secretary David Davies has already conceded defeat and the Lib Dems claim they have defeated Education Secretary Gillian Keegan in Chichester.

Mr Sunak is expected to announce he is quitting as leader in the morning, although he would stay on until a replacement is chosen.

Speaking on Sky News, Mr McDonnell said he believed that Sir Keir’s election manifesto was just a ‘first phase’.

‘If you look at the Blair government, the first couple of years they held to the Tory spending plans then they became more radical,’ he said.

Sir Keir arrived with his wife Victoria to cast their votes this morning at a polling station in their Holborn and St Pancras constituency in north London

Rishi Sunak and his wife Akshata Murty arrived to cast their vote at Kirby Sigston Village Hall in Northallerton, North Yorkshire, this morning

Labour’s deputy leader Angela Rayner said she was ‘not counting her chickens’ but suggested voters were punishing the Conservatives for their past 14 years in power

Mr McDonnell said that Sir Keir would begin with his missions, but added: ‘At that stage then it will have to be more radical if the children in my constituency are to be lifted out of poverty.’

In the first tangible evidence of the hammering, Labour’s Heidi Alexander took ex-Cabinet minister Robert Buckland’s Swindon South seat with a 9,000 majority.

Altogether the Lib Dems are projected to get 61 MPs – and Nigel Farage’s Reform insurgents could have 13 after effectively leeching millions of votes from the Conservatives.

That could include Mr Farage himself taking Clacton, while Conservative sources in Great Yarmouth confirmed they expected Reform to triumph there.

The SNP would be slashed to 10, meaning they would no longer be the biggest party in Scotland.

Although the exit survey, run for broadcasters by polling guru Sir John Curtice, is not guaranteed to be exact, it has accurately reflected the outcome in the past few elections.

Sir Keir gave a muted reaction to the bombshell, posting on social media: ‘To everyone who has campaigned for Labour in this election, to everyone who voted for us and put their trust in our changed Labour Party – thank you.’
