Our voting system is shagged, that, we have established. Labour and the Tories would never allow proportional representation because it benefits them the most. Cue Labour moaning about electoral reform because it didn't work in their favour this time. **** 'em. I hope they never win another election again. At least the Tories are honest in their hatred of the working class.
On the BBC results page, http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/election/2015/results, does anyone knpow who 'Others' is? They appear to have 1 seat. Its right at the bottom below BNP and Class War
Others have the following results:
Others
Others have the following results:
Others
- 1 seats in total.
- 0 seats gained.
- 0 seats lost.
- 0 net change in seats.
- 164,826 total votes taken.
- 0.5% share of the total vote
- -0.3% change in share of the votes
I presume others are non-party affiliated independent candidates.
Love that the Monster Raving Looney Party got more than twice the votes of the BNP.
David Prescott was First Secretary whilst deputy Prime Minster according to the BBC

The soccer thing and evolution thing was back when I lived in Virginia, I have only been in Cali a few years. Rural Virginia is controlled by hard core Southern Baptists. Here my area is controlled by sovereign citizens which is why they hate roundabouts ( as they are supper into conspiracies).
The ballot thing in Cali is crazy as it's supper easy o get to the signature collection stage( it's only a couple hundred bucks) it is hard though to get something on the state wide ballot it's like a couple million sigs.
I'm still amazed this has been one of the best natured threads on here in a long time. Well done all (except Charon, he's a ****).
Which means it took 33,000 votes to get a Tory seat. But only 26,000 or so to get an SNP one.
All irrelevant anyway. The Tories won. Get over it. It was the same system Labour have got in with in the past with a smaller share of the vote. If they had got in this time you wouldn't be moaning about the system.
The manner of the victory will give them confidence to cut even deeper which will be bad for local services in cities like ours.
Also what does this mean for the green energy sector.
Will their stance on this change , effecting the whole region.

Because it was such an unexpected result, people are almost forgetting that this is still a very small majority for a government to work with. I'd say even harder than the previous coalition.
Once the initial euphoria passes, Cameron's biggest problem will be keeping his own back benches sweet. It's not going to take many of them coming together and causing trouble.
Could be a government as impotent as the final years of John Major.

Time to draw things to a close, thanks for keeping things civil. 
I think his backbenchers will be content so long as he sticks to his promise to deliver an EU referendum in 2017.
