The only thing I can try and extract from this is hopefully we can expect rioting.... And lots of it. Maybe not immediately, but the anger will build

If they win a majority perhaps, but a minority Tory government (or one with LD support that just gets it over the line) will not be able to impose austerity in the way that people fear.

Lib Dems have a seat!

There must be resistance.

If I have to face another five years of hamheaded public schoolboys calling me and mine a cunt by word and deed I swear I'll do time

 

[ItWillNeverWork]

I wish I was Scottish.

[weepiper]

Lib Dems got 456 votes in the Western Isles.

 

[Favelado]

Long time since D:REAM were in the charts now.

The SNP arent going to vote to give several seats back to Labour.

The seats will be the seats, no party can hand any back.

What I was driving at was - if it's a hung parliament - was who could stand the test of the "Queens Speech". SNP voting for a Cons proposition won't happen.

Is that the biggest swing on record?

 

[SE25]

Well, at least they got one seat.

The cunts.

Amazing how these laziness epidemics happen in places where all the jobs were destroyed by Tory governments.

I'm sick of those leaching fuckers living off state handouts too. Having their lifestyles subdisized by hard working tax payers...

You know. The bosses getting pay rises whilst they lay off staff and others needing to claim tax credits, private landlords milking the public purse for their mortages paid with HB.
Oh that's different. Sorry. Blessed are the wealth creators.

 

[Doctor Carrot]

Ha I almost feel sorry for Tim Fallon pathetically trying to put a gloss on things... Almost.

 

[JimW]

Lib Dems got 456 votes in the Western Isles.

They could isolate them on one.of the.outlying cleared islets

 

[David Clapson]

All the Tories will need armed bodyguards. Great news for police overtime.

 

[princess_k]

Fuck this is depressing.

 

[editor]

Brillo Pad head on the BBC is annoying.

 

[brogdale]

Is that the biggest swing on record?

if it is...won't last long methinks

 

[Tony_LeaS]

if it is...won't last long methinks

Largest I can find, 20.6% for a Labour to Conservative swing back in the 70's.

SNP will probably have larger swings elsewhere.

 

[xenon]

Winter is coming.

 

[brogdale]

Dougie's gone

 

[danny la rouge]

Another massive rout for Labour as Douglas Alexander loses Paisley and Renfrewshire South to SNP by 5000 votes.
