Prime Minister Boris Johnson exceeded all expectations in Thursday’s U.K. general election, and his landslide victory makes the U.K. all but certain to exit the European Union early next year.

Labour spokesmen said that they are “pretty sure” they lost so many seats because, “they didn’t call enough people ‘racist’.”

Jeremy Corbyn, leader of the main opposition Labour Party, said, “We clearly didn’t call enough people racist during this campaign. We’re going to have to step up our game next election and call people racist 50 percent more.”

Corbyn announced he would not be heading another election campaign after Thursday’s crushing defeat.

By the numbers so far (with the change from 2017’s results):

Conservatives: 364 seats (+47)

364 seats (+47) Labour: 203 (-59)

203 (-59) Scottish National Party (SNP): 48 (+13)

48 (+13) Liberal Democrats: 11 (-1)

11 (-1) Brexit: 0 (0)

Some Labour supporters are already getting a jump on the next election, calling people old racists right out of the gate:

Waking up to hear #ConservativeParty have won is like waking up at Christmas and getting coal, brilliant for old people and people who wanted #Brexit but not so good for people who didnt want a racist, disgusting values with no plan leader in boris, — kylelukeeaton (@kylelukeeaton) December 13, 2019

BBC exit poll predicts Tories to take 70+ seats. If so – a victory of the old over the young, racists over people of colour, selfishness over the planet. Scotland will leave UK. However it does not feel right compared to on-the-ground. — Paul Mason (@paulmasonnews) December 12, 2019
