Poll: *** 2010 General Election Result & Discussion ***

[Lord_Kokain]

I feel bad for the monster raving party

 

[meghatronic]

errr no it was the lack of people being able to vote cos the polling stations were incompetent

Hundreds out of millions though. I agree it shouldn't've happened - but hardly game changing.

Clegg, outright blaming the students not being able to vote! Nice.

He's talking about Sheffield Hallam where he won by a massive majority anyway?

 

[firefilesuk]

exactly, i read on another forum about poling stations being almost deserted earlier in the day, weve all done it going somewhere late before it shuts and it backfired, they had 12 hours to vote.

Countrywide, not just Sheffield.

Labour hold Penistone, gutted

 

[Ahleckz]

Oh sod this, I'm going to sleep.
Night guys, it's been fun! Maybe I'll wake up to see a Tory Government, that would be nice!

51 of 78.

 

[MrMoonX]

a lib/lab coalition will have 1 more seat than anything the tories can come up with the bbc are predicting, combining that with the independents and the green mp that will back them i predict a minority lib/lab coalition, rock on!

 

[meghatronic]

50 from 74...

 

[muon]

Labour + LD + SNP + Green might be close to a majority.

50 from 74...

Not only that but pretty much the whole of South and East London left. Traditionally Labour. However, there's North-West London which is traditionally Conservative.

Lets hope they won't be that desperate.

Poor old Lib Dems deserved so much better than this. They've been royally screwed by the system. The UK desperately needs proportional representation.

The problem is which seats do you give them? Even if you create larger blocks to allow multiple seats for a larger area, you lose the local MP system we've had forever.

 

[Vampire]

I can't believe I forwent sleep for this. Stupid people. Stupid democracy. RAGE.

+1

 

[Robbo]

+1

I am also a bit disappointed

But oh well!

The SNP would not do a deal with labour. They will support or oppose whatever government wins power on an issue by issue basis while trying to get the best deal for Scotland.
