Here are some reactions from the frontline today. This from the independent candidate for York Outer, Scott Marmion:
Just had a thought, the Tory landslide has one serious downside. The person most responsible for this election needing to be called in the first place will retain her seat. You can guess who that is for yourselves.

This from York For Europe, who tried a ‘vote swap’ between the Lib Dems and Labour in York Outer and Harrogate:
All week kept saying to Remainers that just because we don't understand Boris Johnson, doesn't mean he's not popular & we shouldn't underestimate that other people see something in him we don't. Bit like Mrs Brown's Boys!
