the scouts eyed the building because we
have our map of the UK and it's been
basically changing color and changing
shape we have our figures there on
broadcasting house as you can see and
they're all projecting that majority for
Boris Johnson they tell their own story
but just down there to the right where
we have new broadcasting house Sophia's
there with the changing political map of
the UK my goodness how it has changed we
can show you the shot tonight of what
the map looked like when we came on air
that was with the colors of the 2017
general election as the results came in
we took them all up and now we have been
relaying that map but look at how
dramatically different that map already
is looking one place that is pretty much
unchanged at the moment is down here
London it's huge on our map of hexagons
because the 73 MPs to our map and many
of them remaining red tonight but it's
very much looking like a an island of
red I've got a couple of voters with me
here you're a Labour voter and Labour
London voting you must be very
disappointed tonight absolutely I think
Labor's really misjudged the mood of
bricks it around the country and we
actually means to people in their
traditional heartlands as you can see
they've really just phony broken through
in London which was a safe bet in the
first place and the Lib Dems have taken
a big seat Richmond Park here in London
but they've lost their leader I think
that the taking of Richmond Park is
hugely important in signify the Lib Dems
still have a significance in the forward
moving of politics I think that overall
it's been a dismal march the Lib Dems
and I think we need to look for a new
leader
as you know evidently shown I think what
it came down to it was a failure of
leadership I think that it arrests more
with Joe Swinson than it does with our
exit policy I think that as a leader and
an in personality she didn't connect
with voters enough okay well let's just
take you across England north east Wales
here which has all those marginal seats
which have just gone blue and it is
really striking just how much has
changed we were talking earlier about
the red war well that has been breached
in fact
if you come up here into the northwest
of England there's literally a path now
a blue path from the west coast all the
way over into the East Coast past
Yorkshire and I've got a voter from
Yorkshire you're from Halifax yeah
delighted conservative voter
very much so yeah I mean it's been a
fantastic night I mean obviously the
majority is far exceeding what I
expected especially fantastic to see so
many sort of seats in the north and
Yorkshire in the northeast and elsewhere
flipped from red to blue Bruce I think
that fundamentally the Liberal Party's
take in the north for granted for far
too long
that is the extraordinary thing watching
this tonight is they're the seats that
some of them have huge majorities labour
majorities have just gone in date and I
think it's largely down to the bricks
issue because obviously the north all
three regions your Oxford an office and
the Northeast thought it off alarmingly
to leave but we've had so many Labour
MPs that refused to respect that result
and I think that's ultimately the sort
of democratic justice going back to bite
them because those constituents there
for years haven't gone away they're
exactly the EU hasn't got away
it hasn't been enacted out there so I
think that's that's the evidence here of
democratic justice in action thank you
very much and just another big change as
well this is very much like it was in
2015 when we watched Scotland go yellow
well that is happening all over again
obviously Jo Swinson losing her seat a
big story there I've got a vote here
from sterling with me now your reaction
you want independence that you voted SNP
your reaction to the results tonight
well it's always a difficult night
because Scotland votes one way England
votes another and we can see with all
this blue that's not what we want we
want our independence we want a
left-of-centre government and we want to
be in the EU are you gonna get it with
all our blue if voting means anything it
must okay well thank you very much so as
you can see this map really changing
shape in front of our eyes and that huge
wave that red wall has definitely been
breached well indeed Sophie thanks very
much thanks to your guests as well
