+# UK2017
+An awful messy hack to scrape BBCs website for UK 2017 election results
+
+Created quickly to read the UK election results from BBCs (incredibly heavy) website and output a small text file that I can load on mobile data :)
+See output at [loki.sockspls.com/2017](https://loki.sockspls.com/2017)
