General Election 2017: Young voters react to the exit poll
Young voters part of the 5 live Election All Nighter audience react to being told the results of the General Election exit poll.
Stephen Nolan revealed the results of the poll to a group of young voters shortly after the Exit Poll was released.
It showed the Conservatives would be the largest party, but may not win enough seats for a majority.
“Shocked. It’s just mind-blowing that the party that had been expected to win a majority has lost it so badly,” said one Conservative supporter.
“It’s amazing! I’m off my bonce with excitement,” was the reaction of one Labour supporter.
