Election Night Live - day one - overnight coverage

Sky coverage was the best of the night. Good analysis, showed plenty of counts and genuinely interesting discussion. Burnham and Davidson were excellent. Kay Burley actually looked like she was enjoying it, unlike an anchor on another channel.

1:01:55 Exit poll 😂😂

Best election coverage. Better than Channel 4, BBC and ITV. Really entertaining

Thanks for the upload

This is so much more dynamic and declaration heavy compared to BBC. On actual night I watched BBC Scotland as got bored with UK version

The reaction to the exit poll was hilarious, I think sky had by far the best coverage of the election I watched and listen to most of it. Exit poll overestimated the Tories and Reform by 10 and underestimated the Lib Dems by 11 and Greens by 2, so it was even a better result for the left then with the exit poll said. I wonder why we can’t have a similar exit poll in the United States

All the talk was the swing required for a Labour majority of just one seat was 12.7%. But the final swing was only 10.8% and they got a majority of 180. My observation is it's not necessarily the swing itself that counts, but how the swing is distributed. All Labour needed for a landslide was the collapse of the Conservative vote! Labour lost thousands, possibly hundreds of thousands of votes to Gaza supporting candidates. Something else that hasn't been mentioned was the voter ID rule this time. Most of the people who didn't have the correct ID would most likely have voted Labour, which also accounts somewhat for lower turnout. Take all of those factors away and Labour would have vastly increased their share of the vote and the swing would have been at record levels.

Time stamps - 2:00 actual start of coverage. 6:29:06 - reaction to Ashworth loosing seat. 7:09:40 - Theresa Coffeey loose reaction - to Labour not Green Party. 7:56:14 - Labour formally wins

best coverage from sky news

The bits between 6:30am-7am is missing here.

6:35:33 is oliver behind the returning officer?

I’ve watched most of the coverages back, Andy Burnham was sometimes a bit too interrupty, but otherwise Sky were easily the best of all the Broadcasters.

7:18:22 Shapps, gone. Chalk, gone. Mordaunt, gone. And so on.

Labour wins a massively oversized majority on just one third of the vote. So happy to see democracy is so healthy, progessive and inclusive in the UK.

This was a terrible programme, largely due to Kay Burley's chairing -- when it was not chaotic with everybody talking over each other , it was Burley trying to steal the limelight so that people like Beth Rigby couldn't get a word in. And Ed Conway's graphics sections were just confusing not clarifying.

Nothing like having a non bia's hosts...

Nothing to celebrate here....more doom for the poor British population, same crap just a different Party name

Why on earth did people vote Labour 🙄
