So May's stated reasoning behind calling a snap election was a desire to increase her party's majority to strengthen their position in Brexit negotiations. That was a big fail, but 40% of the Scottish National Party's seats went Tory, so that's rather interesting too. Talk about muddying the waters.

And it sounds like May lacks even the honour to admit her shortcomings turned a potential 100+ seat majority into a minority and step aside. She's going to try and form a coalition with a far right party.
