Nuneaton was one that Labour were desperate to win, and they have lost it in stunning form and The Lib Dems don't even get 1000 votes.
I'll round up the Northern Irish whilst im here West Tyrone Sinn Feinn held, DUP held North Antrim, the SDLP hold Foyle as well as Clwyd South in Wales staying with Labour

First steal of the night, UUP takes South Antrim from DUP as well as an independent winning North Down. One person has had more victories than the Liberal Democrats so far.
Ceredigion vote Lib Dems to hold, making me look like a prick!

I switched from BBC to ITV and have apparently missed about 6 seats being announced... is the BBC slow or are ITV able to predict the future?

ITV have a history of predicting prior to anouncment whilst BBC announce only when its all done . The swings to the SNP are currently the biggest in Parlimentary history. As well as that SNP get Ochil and South Perthshire. SNP takes Glenrothes, which was GOrdon Brown's former seat.

I voted for the Lib Dems, the Seth Rollins of UK political parties. They won't even come close to winning my seat, but it is what it is. Also I met and petted a really adorable cat on the way to the polling station, I felt like that made my decision to bother to go and vote at all 100% worth it, so that was cool. Me too
