    Anyone but Labour or Tory!

    Depending on your area, UKIP, lib dems, greens, cista, an independant, etc... Just don't feed into the two party system that has left us with successive labour or Tory governments. They've had plenty of time taking it in turns to **** the country and the futures of our young people!

    **** no to UKIP or any of the other far-right scum bags. bUt agree on your thoughts about centrism generally, reds and blues are both as incompetent as each other

  4. Problem is, all other parties will be all too happy to jump into bed with one of the power two. I went UKIP too BTW.

    Exit polls out showing a great night for cons and SNP although cons still short of majority. Most commentators doubting how accurate it is though.

    It's only one poll, that flies in the face of every other poll taken in the run up to the election.

    I'd be staggered if it was proved to be anything like accurate across the spectrum

    If the SNP have won 58 out of 59 seats in Scotland then the country should be given another referendum ASAP.

    Dunno Tobes they're saying exit polls are very accurate. The problem with other polls was there was a big hole not accounting for the undecided voters. I think undecided voters often play safe when they get to the ballot box. Hope I'm wrong though. Depressing if we have another 5 years of this coalition.

    If predictions are correct then some interesting conclusions....

    1) Either Nick Clegg or the Lib Dem party or both, are finished?

    2) Without any MPs in scotland Labour will never win another general election again?

    3) UKIP's best chance in a generation to gain momentum in British politics has failed.

    4) DUP will be the king maker.

    Problem for the Tories is it looks like the Lib Dems are going to suffer considerable losses so they are going to struggle to reach the joint majority needed to keep the coalition as it has been together with the loss of their bosom buddies of late. If Labour can harness the smaller parties on the left who have made gains, the SNP, Plaid Cymru etc they may well end up in the power seat come opening of business tomorrow. Will be interesting to watch developments.

    Nope.

    If this exit poll is correct then the Tories only need the DUP to buddy up with them and they'd have a fragile majority , as the Sinn Fein MP's don't attend Westminster, so the real target is 323. They won't need the liberals if this poll is right.

    Thanks you sweaty ****ers, well done, another 5 years of the Tories you thick ****s

    Ed Balls has just intimated it's possible Labour could piece together a multi party coalition. That may get his man the top job but it would, in the medium to long term, effectively kill the Labour Party for at least a generation and, in the short term, guarantee 4-5 years of chaos which will result in Scotland exiting the UK (which I'm all for as it would be a short term "experiment" that could be rectified).

    The sweaties using the election to advance their Nationalist agenda has ensured that the Tories remain in power and thus inflicting 5 more years of the Tories on the entire nation including them. Stupid ****s
