General election 2015

I am going to hide with my teddy until 5am. this is too much.

I'm just hoping that Al Murray won Thanet.

If the Tories get over 300 seats I'll be astonished. Going to be bad for labour, but not that bad.

Will Miliband go into coalition with the SNP? How can he present that to the electorate if he does, given how strident he was in denying it as an option?

Yougov didn't do an exit poll it's their poll of prospective voters

Actual exit poll is sample of 22000 people from 140 polling stations only

That is more than any poll though.

I'm pretty sure that won't give them a majority.

Possibly time to accelerate plan "move to the South of France".

Daily Mirror not taking it well #uokhun?

Utterly depressing.

sunderland!

Sunderland UKIP second FFS

books plane ticket, moves back to aus...

oh wait, it's no better there politically speaking.

Shitballs.

The worst bit is Cameron will be able to claim net migration is falling.

At least UKIP second could mean some split votes in marginals. Tories won my parents' (my old) constituency by 100-odd votes last time, UKIP only had about 1000 votes, but there are easily enough bitter racists up there to eat into that small majority.

Hurrah for bitter racists!

Exit poll. Fucks sake. Would even consider moving over with @John_H except Harper is worse. Maybe we'll be kicked out anyway after Britain leaves the EU in 2017. Only silver lining is that the lib dem slime look decimated.

You're more than welcome @dubkev.

NDP took control of Alberta yesterday, which seems to be a big deal.

Maybe Harper won't be around too much longer (I still know very little about Canadian politics)

Got to love this 'democracy' when you're pinning faint hopes on xenophobics splitting the vote.

First two seats in show almost equal conservative and ukip votes. Hopefully all the racists lied in the exit poll and fuck conservative chances

Ha, this ^

@John_H He'll win again next time I reckon.

Worth bearing in mind we only need a ten seat swing in the exit poll for Tories to be unable to form majority so Labour could form a government.
