After devastating exit poll, Labour says election ‘too early to call’
Responding to the exit poll showing the UK Labour party sinking to its worst result since 1935, a party spokesperson says that conclusions should not yet be drawn.
“It’s only the very beginning of the night, and it’s too early to call the result,” the party says.
“We, of course, knew this was going to be a challenging election, with Brexit at the forefront of many people’s minds and our country increasingly polarized.”
“But Labour has changed the debate in British politics. We have put public ownership, a green industrial revolution, an end to austerity center stage and introduced new ideas, such as plans for free broadband and free personal care. The Tories only offered more of the same.”
