Tristram Hunt, touted as a future Labour leader, just described a defeated Labour candidate as 'someone who worked in the financial services industry - a wealth creator'.

What a ****.
 
Seems like it's just me now, whistling in the dark.....

I'll sing myself to sleep
A song from the darkest hour
Secrets I can't keep
Inside of the day
Swing from high to deep
Extremes of sweet and sour
Hope that God exists
I hope I pray
 
OK, I think I'm going to go to bed, dream sweet dreams, and see just how much of the country has turned blue overnight.... See y'all in the morning!
 
Wow!!
Seems that Socialism has been rejected (Apart from Scotland obviously........time to get that wall built up?).
 
Ed Balls has asked for a re-count!! ****ing brilliant!

The forecast is now for a Tory majority................around 329 seats!
 
The English are speaking loudly. The Scots are speaking loudly. Westminster Parliament will look interesting with an opposition comprised of two elements that despise each other. Suspect the Scots Nats will try to force through policies of self interest. Labour will try to rally under a new leader, and may have an offer of support from Cleggy-no-mates - cold comfort. Cameron will be dependant on his backbenchers staying in line if he gets a majority.
 
Bit of a hollow victory for SNP. Fantatsic result, but IF the Tories get a majority, the SNP will have no power to control Westminster. Had the Tories underperformed as was expected, the SNP would have had a much louder voice.
 
The most compelling thing in the immediate future is how the Conservatives and the SNP relate. Sturgeon was still bleating about locking the Tories out late last night, but they clearly can't do that. The way forward has to be the agreement on further devolved powers and what that actually means towards Scotland's wish to be far more self-governing. If the result (which David Cameron must be working towards) is a Scotland that remains within the Union, as the recent referendum indicated, but with a further separation of Scottish-only and English-only legislation as desired by both the SNP and the Tories, then I think that's the ideal outcome. If the SNP effectively march into Westminster and throw their weight around and commit to cause chaos for the Government, then we're all in for a rocky ride.
