Theresa May calls June 8th Election (RESULT: Tories fail to win majority; Coalition formed with DUP)
Heres what I don't understand...why does Corbyn get to make his own government? Does the queen decide?
Cause last time didn't the largest party decide to make the coalition?

The largest minority party makes a shadow cabinet. It has no real governmental role but it allows the opposition to provide alternatives to the party in government.
This DUP politician complained about Rihanna running through his wheat field

If the Tories fail to form an alliance while being the largest party, THEN Corbyn could attempt to strike a deal with the Scottish National party, the Liberal Democrats, the nationalist parties from Northern Ireland and the Greens. But this is an unlikely scenario.
The opposition party also has a shadow cabinet to propose their alternatives to the existing govt
The Tories could have a leadership contest to oust May. And if she loses, then she's out. She might be pressured to resign.
People are celebrating because an actual left wing platform delivered big results for Labour and youth turnout was amazingly high.
The Tories have no mandate to implement their policies either..
so basically there is still going to be a conservative PM. or a very low chance of a Labour one?

Yup. The guy is Boris Johnson. He's like Trump 2.0, but more competent, and with a worse haircut.

You have to be shocked that someone who thinks racism, sexism and economic matters are all critical won. It's like the US will never get it.
It doesn't have to be trump or the status quo. Things can change, but that's on the people at some point.

Yeah. Basically. But the Conservatives have no mandate and they won't be able to get much done.
They thought they'd win 100-200 seats more
when you say mandate, do you mean that they don't have the number of seats required to pass laws, etc?Yeah. Basically. But the Conservatives have no mandate and they won't be able to get much done.

Yeah because the coalition with DUP is shaky at best. What happens if they don't get together on the same page?
This is oh so incredible
We've got someone who actually gives a fukk leading the party and he's just pulled off a small miracle.
We go again Corbyn
It really is. For the last 2 years this guy has had all the tories, 90% of the media and 170 out of 230 his own damn politicians attacking him . . With full party support, no media witch hunt and a couple of more weeks, no doubt he wouldve washed Mays dracula looking ass
