Ridiculous, really. Fuckers had a chance to end this shit forever more and they didn't take it. I'm pretty pissed right now.

I can see the SNP only bagging 6-7 seats now if they're lucky. Having control of the Scottish government will work against them, as it's seen as they're the ones in power.

hmmm expected Lib-Dems to do better than this. Had a lot of momentum from the TV debates that doesn't appear to have transferred to actual votes.

On the bright side Labour taking SNP votes means that the Tories are likely to lose their only Scottish seat to Labour.

I just think the debates made it look like Clegg had more support then they really did. people were willing to say they would vote for him but it was never reall on the cards come polling day.

Indeed, looking a little better for Labour right now.

Also, i'm almost 100% my constituency will be holding Labour, as i voted, and as i hope. But i won't see that till i get up this morning.
Not that i'll be sleeping soon, i have beer to drink.

The polls showed people liked Clegg but weren't crazy about Lib Dem policies.. in the way our election is structured where you vote for local MP rather than a person to be PM it's not that surprising the LD gains havent been huge so far.. I do expect them to get better in the upcoming seats though.

It's a futures market, it's not supposed to add up to exactly 100%

Basically people are betting that there's a 30% chance of a Conservative majority and a 70% chance of no party getting an overall majority.

"The police in Northern Ireland say the car left near a county centre in Londonderry did contain a viable explosive device. Around 500 people were moved out of the centre and the count was suspended while the car was examined by bomb disposal experts. They carried out a controlled explosion and the device was defused."

Holy shit.
