General election 2015

voted this morning. it was ace! might go again tonight.

A haunt from the TNRC days.

In reality it is much wider than that. Our reporting is purely factual anyway, but we still have to hold off until the polls close at 10pm. We have several packages filmed and ready to go but they're all on hold until then. Exit polls are factual - they're how people said they voted - but nobody puts them out till 10 as they could influence how people vote. All you will see until 10 is the leaders voting.

It's really boring but 3am tomorrow onwards should be proper exciting!

My sister did some filming with David Dickinson once and asked him about his tan, he actually has Armenian heritage but everyone always thinks it's fake tan.

Just to clarify my sister isn't actually a racist.

Really want to watch Airplane now...

If there's a Lab/Con coalition I might hide in my cupboard for a few years.

Voted Green

I love the exit poll, I always lie. Everyone should lie to the exit poll.

Can't wait to see how many London constituencies will be represented by the Green at the end.

I just hope that it won't be zero.

Posters in windows from my house to polling station:

Green- 10
Lab- 1
Others- 0

So then no vote will be wasted.

Is there any "live polling" type data?

They usually start after the election is closed.

No live polling data. It would be considered likely to affect those yet to vote.

Do you even election, bro?

He's one of the few people who actually would weigh the votes if he could.

It will be zero

Just been, discharged my civic duty, and I must say that I think it was probably the candidate having had the forethought to put "no to terrorism" under his name that swayed me, as obviously terrorism is bad.

Yeah, that's very deep to the point and right indeed.

Working in Highgate today, big house near our job was busy preparing for the local Tory victory party tonight. Like how it's safe enough to start celebrating before the results are in. Cunts(who pay my wages). :/

Will probably be even longer than that.
All elected MPs will attend parliament on 18th & 19th to swear oath of allegiance and elect a speaker.
State Opening/Queen's Speech is on the 27th, after which there are usually 4 or 5 days of debating the contents of the speech, culminating in a vote to see if parliament will agree to go along with it.
2nd or 3rd of June will be crunch time. If they can't agree, it could trigger a second general election...

Oof, Conservatives up in the exit polls, but not quite a majority.
