Anyone paying attention the the GBP could see how it would go and - importantly in this case - I believe that includes Boris. I'm sure he was relieved to get the result he expected, the majority was probably bigger than he had dreamed, but I highly doubt he didn't expect the overall majority or considered it to be much of a gamble.

There's Tory-money (oil and associated industries) in Aberdeenshire, it's going to stay blue for a while.
