The 2015 Popularity Contest (aka UK General Election )

The infographics and transitions before the first results were in were actually reminiscent of Chris Morris.

6-0, Balls gets his hatrick!

George Galloway apparently in trouble - one Labour gain I'd love to see.

Life doesn't get any better than this.........

The evidence and local data seat by seat is starting to chip away at the exit poll, long way to go yet

Happend last time

That's the spirit!

No chance. What on earth would the LDs extract from that? They'd be humiliated.

You can be sure that isn't happening.

Again, I put it to you how does the maths work here for the Tories? Do they go it alone as a minority government?

If the Tories get 316, the go as a minority government.

If they get around 295-300, they'll have a loose deal with the DUP and/or the LD's and stay as a minority government.

Balls deep isn't he.

If this exit poll is accurate it is a sad indictment of this country. All too quick to label Labour as unfit to Govern - most likely because it doesn't suit the agenda of those who own the means of production and the media. Granted that the likes of Blair were unfit to govern but that doesn't mean we can't level the same accusation at many a Tory for reneging on promises and shafting the Lib Dems over the past 5 years, for making the little man pay to keep the country afloat.. You know what? This country - and probably nearly every other country - is based on deceit. Deceit when it comes to kow-towing to Murdoch, to the management of the NHS, the bedroom tax and much more besides - the arguments against the EC and why we've gone to war in recent years. 5 more years of Cameron - ffs, not good enough. We don't decide this election. The idiots who are only concerned about their own little acres do. I'd gladly give up what little I have to see those Tory clowns sent to hell - my business is suffering because the people of Liverpool are suffering. Life is hell north of Watford and guess what, they don't care. (and don't get me started on UKIP and all the disaffected right wingers and xenophobes who support them for all the wrong reasons (most of which have been brought about by media pressure). Low quality Tories that they are.

I agree, these things move allover the place during the night. It's usually about 2-3am when we have a fairly good idea......I'll share that bottle of bubbly with you........

So there's been no crossover WHATSOEVER, ANYTIME between any member of the DUP and terrorism?

If you can tell me that's the case, then fair enough.

Apart from that time they climbed up a mountain and showed their weapons ? No. NEVER. NEVER. NEVER.

If you genuinely think that the election result was swayed by that balloon then it's frightening that you had a voting card ffs

Last week's Question Time and Ed getting flustered on economic policy past and present had much more influence.

 

[Donald Twain]

I can smell Bullingdon panic.
