Farrage's millionaire donor apparently has said he thinks Farage hasn't won.

Small mercies. Going to bed for a bit - too dispirited to do this on no sleep.

 

[quimcunx]

Another appalling tusc result

What are you counting as appalling? They are a brand new party. did you say that you are involved in their campaign? Are you being a bit harsh on yourself?

 

[treelover]

this projected results looks very tasty for he ulstermen...much leverage

at least they want the bedroom tax gone and believe it or not, less welfare cuts.

 

[danny la rouge]

Two

That's a disgrace.

 

[butchersapron]

Battersea - oof, that's even worse.

 

[Brixton Hatter]

Cons win Battersea - Labour nowhere near

26k tories
18k lab

 

[Plumdaff]

Battersea result is pretty damning no. Oh dear

Close at Tooting. Lab hold.

Just rejoining... any news on Streatham (or any of the other Brixon tri split) yet?

 

[little_legs]

And now the BBC says that overall Con majority is on the cards.

 

[krink]

I've had enough TV, going to bed with radio 4. Mnd, I was flicking channels and managed to catch Pierce Brosnon getting attacked by a ghost-tree so not a totally wasted evening.

 

[butchersapron]

lab-->con swing in battersea = game over.

 

[Brixton Hatter]

Looks like Lib Dem voters have gone back to tories in Battersea

 

[quimcunx]

Battersea result is pretty damning no. Oh dear

Surely it was expected?

not til 4 or 4.30am I think

 

[a_chap]

Battersea. Tory swing greater than the exit poll!

 

[kebabking]

Any cause for optimism? Anyone..?

Milibands' after dinner speaking rate should bring a smile...

 

[YouSir]

Fuck this then, til 2am and I'm out, enough to be depressed about in life.

 

[redsquirrel]

lab-->con swing in battersea = game over.

Yep it looks like the yellow tories have become blue tories

 

[shifting gears]

lab-->con swing in battersea - game over.

Is battersea not a safe Tory seat?

Or am I clutching at straws?

 

[agricola]

Perhaps Battersea shouldnt be that much of a surprise, there has been a lot of posh flats going up and that Made In Chelsea films quite a bit over that side of the river.

 

[Favelado]

Shit. That's very bad news.

 

[paolo]

Battersea. Tory swing greater than the exit poll!

Big shit.

Yeah but there shouldn't have been a swing to the Cons

Streatham due about 3.30 I think.

 

[goldenecitrone]

Any cause for optimism? Anyone..?

The estate agents near me are letting off fireworks.

 

[agricola]

"It has been a great campaign for the Labour Party", says Tristram.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Any cause for optimism? Anyone..?

Eurovision is only a couple of weeks away

The UK may not be eligible to take part by then, of course.
