          Done and dusted. Now for a day of patients talking about politics

          Comment


            Well we've voted. An exit poller tried to be quite insistent on the way out; had to curtly tell him he'd find out when the rest of us did.

              Imagine if you could treat your patients depending on the way they voted.

              "Oh, you voted for... them. Please step into this room..."

                    It's interesting because it essentially puts others inside on the firing line if someone pursues this and finds she has indeed done something she shouldn't, especially given her history. It officially supports what she has done and is doing. Of course, they could know that they have friends in high places and know exactly what they're doing.

                      Final polls leave us with



                      With a combined chart



                      And putting those numbers into electorial calculus



                      However, we should have a pretty good idea of the actual outcome at 10PM via the exit polls which are normally pretty accurate - the polling station near me was definitely the busiest I've seen in recent years.

                        Laura Kuenssberg will likely tell us much earlier.

                          “Anyone with information to suggest this has happened should report it immediately to the police.”

                              1 - Does her comment not breach the BBC's own rules?

                              2 - For the above final national prediction chart, how does that compare to its equivalent in 2017?

                                There's a interesting piece from the Reuter's Institute on where people get their news from, the only people likely to have seen Kuenssberg at the time are over 55.
