General Election 2015 - chat, predictions, results and post election discussion

Is battersea not a safe Tory seat?

Or am I clutching at straws?

It was one of the ones that labour really targeted and had to take to get anywhere - and they ended up with swing against them. Others with similar swing demanded now looking very unlikely.

 

[Casually Red]

Any cause for optimism? Anyone..?

With the real prospect of Tory government propped up by a party who insist ..in all honesty..the world began around 6000 years ago ?

I'm optimistic that reign of horror could lead to a frenzied British withdrawal from Ireland to ensure it never ever happens again .

 

[treelover]

really don't want to go to bed, knowing what the morning will bring

 

[shifting gears]

Oh Christ.

So when do we start smashing shit up ?

 

[agricola]

This Brillo - Hunt discussion is one of the great car crash interviews.

 

[Favelado]

When Labour MP's are called Tristam it's Game Over anyway I suppose.

On the downside if that happens I might move there. You've been warned.

 

[brogdale]

recount for Cable

 

[comrade spurski]

Labour prick called tristan claiming battersea candidate was a wealth creator and a great labour candidate...and they will wonder why they have done shit in this election...ffs

 

[redsquirrel]

Hunt clearly throwing the towel in

 

[a_chap]

"Calling for Ed Milliband's head" ... you heard it here first.

 

[quimcunx]

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.

Side effect of gentrification? tories being shunted to poorer neighbourhoods and taking their shitty votes with them?

Wouldn't that be ironic?

"We must not retrench into a left wing rump" says David Blunket... the towering twat that he is.

It's like the anti-christmas.

Chances of them ever learning that lesson? Fuck all. Slow fucking suicide, wish someone would go at them with a hammer and finish the job.

 

[Steel Icarus]

jesus, this walking rhyming slang spunking out gobbets of Tory-speak; "proud to be from this country", "wealth creators", etc

 

[xenon]

For like the past 14 years.

Longer than that. Pronounced Batter-Zia in the late 80's was the joke.

 

[Quartz]

Boris Johnson must be gutted...

 

[Tony_LeaS]

Eurovision is only a couple of weeks away

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

Eurovision is mostly for humourous intent, we could chuck Nick Clegg in drag and see if Europe will give him some votes.

Anyone would think that this result wasnt far, far worse than 1983.

 

[agricola]

UKIP third in Wrexham.

 

[goldenecitrone]

It's like the anti-christmas.

Well, the turkeys did vote for it.

 

[Wilf]

Looking like Tories reigning on their own, close enough to a de facto majority to tell Libs 'thanks, and now fuck off'. I'm off to bed.

 

[paolo]

Streatham due about 3.30 I think.

Same, I read, for the other two. (Vauxhall, and that weirdly named Dulwich and thingies).

 

[xenon]

Oh Christ.

So when do we start smashing shit up ?

I'm starting now...Unfortunately I'm at home.

 

[butchersapron]

So basically, the lib-dems fucked it up by splitting to tory in all the marginals.

Libs ?

 

[Sasaferrato]

Boris Johnson must be gutted...

Cameron would do a Blair at about three years I reckon. Being PM is just a 'been there, done that' for Cameron.

 

[xenon]

Boris Johnson must be gutted...

Yes... Yes he must be gutted.
