Whats with Cleggs statement 10 mins after Camerons...dont get in bed with the Tories Clegg :/
Seems really strange to make a statement so soon after Cameron's with no preparation time unless you know what he's going to say. We can sort of predict what he'll say to a degree, but...

I dunno. Think I'll wait the 10mins before starting to throw guesses around.

With non CG pictureframes for the 3! They should have been virtual just to make it all as awkward as it is.

PIZZA IS HERE.

You're gonna regret that pizza in a few hours, trust me on this

Interesting fact for people curious about electoral reform. UKIP have over 900,000 voters now, 3.1% of the votes so far with an increase of 0.9%. They have 0 seats.

On the other hand, the SNP, Plaid Cymru and Democratic Unionist Party have a combined 824,996 votes and a combined 17 seats.

Well, I went for a Dominos, 7" "personal" pizza, with my 5 toppings being 2 x pepperonic, 2 x tandoori chicken, 1 x smoky bacon.

And Chicken Strippers too.

I've only had UK Dominos a few times, wasn't really impressed.

Please, by then I'll be out working on my podcast, and then when we finish in the studio it's straight to the pub opposite. I'll be too drunk to care.

I'm not sure I could cope.

It's good justification for me staying in Asia for the next few years, so it works for me.

I'd never vote Liberal if he betrayed us like that.

I think it will cripple the Liberal Democrat support base.

I wouldn't be surprised right now if Nick Clegg walks onto the stage now with Cameron and shakes his hand. It's been that kind of day.

I wonder what Clegg's gonna say now.

Maybe he's already agreed to this.

Or maybe he was just waiting for that one thing that would decide what he'd say...not needing time to consider.

Wake up Sheeple, your boring insistence that Obama is not a lizardman from Atlantis is wearing on my patience 💤

Has Cameron shot himself in the foot?

No way in hell Clegg could go along with these crumbs he's throwing.

Of course not. Typical tories.

Ahh you fucker. I'm starving and that's more or less what I'd order (size up to medium for Double Decadence base & Kickers over Strippers).

Gonna have to fetch some dinner. Watch them announce a Lib-Con alliance while I'm out :(

I'm expecting Hideo Kojima to stroll out and tap him on the shoulder.

"A next Prime Minister is ?!..."
 
So what does this mean for the UK now that there's a Conservative party, even though they didn't obtain majority seats, correct?

How are they on social issues such as healthcare and welfare?

NO NOT AN INQUIRY. Didn't they say on BBC News that it's basically a coverup for dropping doing anything?

It'd be a talking shop that'd go nowhere, and he knows it.

DON'T FALL FOR IT CLEGG.

I really, really hope Clegg doesn't go with this. Resizing consitutencies doesn't deal with the problem of safe seats and representation at all.

Crumbs is pretty much all he's giving.

I don't think he will piss off the Lib Dem base.

How are the 9 remaining seats expected to go? Could we end up with a situation where LD+Labour < Tories + Unionists?
