I blames the Scotch. Behold the 100 year Tory Reich.

Recycle it as toilet paper?

Spare a thought for those of us going to the count - Stockport's doing the national and local verification followed by the national count, which should be completed about 4.30am - if there's a recount due to a spat between 2nd-3rd or 3rd-4th it'll go another couple of hours; then it's back in the morning at 11am for the local count.

Voted Labour but it's a Tory stronghold with a 31% majority so labour didn't even bother to canvas.

Tory minority govt.

Lose confidence vote

Labour form a working agreement with Lib Dems/ SNP and finish term.

Most likely sequence of events, I think. Not sure a Lab working agreement with LD + SNP could take the strain over 5 years but I hope so.

I would if there was 2 sheets

With Lib Dems and a few of the other leftie seats they probably won't need the SNP and they won't dare bring them down with a further no confidence vote.

As a disabled person I voted Tory to teach myself a lesson for being a malingering burden on the taxpayer.

They had the satire spot on all those years ago. "well this is largely as I predicted except that the silly party won"

No, definitely not. Democracy is about voting for whom you believe in. Voting only for possible winners is playing the clown the big parties want to turn you into.

Seems that I can go to sleep with a big smile.

Good night.

Although it could be nice to have a Jewish pm in England.

Exit polls puts Tories as largest party with 316 seats. Looks like a condem again.

 

[Paul R]

We had one once (Jewish PM).

Don't believe the BBC exit poll though.

If the LibDem's drop as far as 10 could they really afford to go into coalition again?

 

[John Channing]

Exit poll was wrong last time, the Conservatives did much better than the prediction

 

[avole]

Bit of an I told you so. Welcome to 5 more years - and the further strengthening of the Conservatives.

 

[Philim]

Possibly not. May be best to lick wounds. Feel sorry for Clegg.

If they only have 10 MPs it hardly matters.
