Poll: The official I voted/election results thread

[StriderX]

Here we go, another defeated Labour candidate basically calling everyone who voted for the Tories an idiot who didn't know what they were doing

Everyone does that, its politics...not a game of hug everyone.

 

[MacMiniBoy]

Wow and that sir is why you lost.

na we lost because we allowed an outdated system let the unions put wallace in as their main man.

face facts his brother would have brought cameron down this week, when push came to shove many brits couldnt vote for el wierdo

 

[Abraxaz1]

Sarcasm not detected?

Ahh just come off a night shift from hell, I don't even know what my girlfriend asked me to do this morning...
Sorry

 

[Scania]

Good riddance to Balls, thank god he's not the next chancellor!

 

[Terminal_Boy]

Where do Labour possibly go from here?

Mars, hopefully.

 

[MookJong]

Clearly a lot of Lib Dem support from last time has moved to Conservative, I wonder if these voters have really looked at the difference in policy.

For example the privacy laws which the LD's blocked will now have no problem being pushed through. Maybe an unrestricted Tory government be too much to stomach for the left leaning once the policy starts coming.

Fascinating times for the country.

 

[MacMiniBoy]

Bye, bye Ed, this is what you get for wrecking the economy!

yeah the bankers had nothing todo with that did they

 

[Rosbif]

Nick Robinson talking up Ed Balls like he is some sort of saint and guru LOL

 

[McBain]

All that garbage from Labour when the exit polls came out, saying it can't be right, Conservatives have lost, haven't got a majority blah blah blah, got egg on your face?

 

[Tombstone]

So, that means that Parliament has no Balls now

 

[Freakbro]

Looks like most people here was wrong when they said UKIP would take seats off the cons

Not as wrong as all the UKIP supporters on here who said they would take seats....from anywhere

I agree, but let's see if the Labour party do???

 

[Lightnix]

Every statement given by the LD's when something goes wrong next term:

"Yeah well that didn't happen five years ago because we were there"

 

[estebanrey]

Balls has already found alternative employment....

 

[McBain]

Nick Robinson talking up Ed Balls like he is some sort of saint and guru LOL

Talking like he's died....

 

[Freakbro]

Every statement given by the LD's when something goes wrong next term:

"Yeah well that didn't happen five years ago because we were there"

Are there any LD's actually left to say anything?

Indeed. I'm expecting a lot of regret 12 months from now.

I don't actually mind the Tories, I just don't trust them not to implement policy that is firmly against the public interest.

 

[Vertigo]

Oh FFS stop with the "mandate for Scotland" crap! The Tories have a mandate to govern the UK, of which Scotland is a part. End of.

 

[Lartyconshayo]

This is another worry as well

Mrs. Balls will be running the Labour Party, so not quite.
