****ing Lib Dems have gone and let me down. By the time they ever get in I'll probably be a Tory.

 

 

Soz deppo but this sounds good to me, had a tenner on the libs getting under 80.5 seats, what doyou think they get in total?

Blimey. Wales is kicking off.

 

Lembit is out. Not sure I care too much about that to be frank. But two quick Tory wins in Wales. That's worrying for Lab. Plus their loss to PC in Arfon earlier.

soz this a daft question cos i'm 99% sure opik is a liberal but my question is is he a liberal?

 

Also Basildone just gone Tory overturning an 8% majority. If we get that in soton then it'd be very interesting

Basildon was always a Tory seat so no surprise there.

Someone has just told me both Test and Itchen are recounts. If that is the case Lab are doomed tonight. Might be rubbish of course...

 

now i would be shocked by that despite earlier in the election pointing out how soton how gone blue with the city council so the signs were there.

Goallllllllllllllllll

 

ho ho ho, eastleigh puts me on downer and then the Tories go and take Harrogate from the Libs with a stonking 9% swing. you're not laughing any more.;)

 

Have you ever been to Harrogate? A usual Tory farming seat in Yorkshire where they drive range rovers... no real issue there again.

Tories win by a painfully close margin in Broxtowe. I bet there's some fat slobs that'll moan like **** but never bothered to vote and change the result

 

Broxtowe is important for a number of close seats about there. Not sure what that says in the esat midlands yet.

I thought the Tories would take Eastleigh though.

 

I actually didn't despite the waffle, i just hated the thought of arguing the other way. The bg big story tonight is the North South divide. It seems that either northerns are either wanting a strong maj govt so ignoring the Libs, or maybe Nick Glegg overplayed his chat up lines (i think he did) in the debates and they didn't like it, oh and also the tiny issue of immigrtion.

 

The libs were always going to find it tough peaking so early because it gave the press time to attack and expose and discredit

You know I always said the LD vote would fall apart come polling day and that is what is happening. Clegg was a one-trick pony. I said that from a position of knowledge.

 

The question is where the votes go.

 

I think DC will just about scrape through 326.

What i think may have also contributed to cleegs demise in the north on top of his policies and his spin (yokshur folk dooont suffer foolds glady) and them wanting a strong maj govt, i thinik there is another issue that sets the northern patter differnt to the south - class - Nick tried to come over as the lad from Sheffield but maybe they saw him as posh souther softie who went to a private school and daddy iwned a bank and a castle and chalet? Basically Cleggy is a yellow Tory they may have thought

 

or they may have read my posts because i think ive comprehensively destroyed the liberals, the leader and their polcies, its a shame polls weren't rerun evry week because the poll up at the top would have a far shorter yellow line now that everyone knows what the libs stand for and they realise that the libs support everything they hste

 

i've turned several members of my family, work colleagues and friends from the Libs by simply highlighting their immigration ptoposal, their desire for the euro, and they would be the most pro eu party you could choose

 

The libs bubble popped because despite voters not wantingb the tories ir labour much, they decided they could put up with people they didn't like rather than have policies and laws they hated. The Northern voters have shown that they have taken the election seriously and voted with their heads and not treated it like x factor. If only those in Eastleigh had been a little bit more sensible it would have shown that southerners were as smart as northerners, but lets not be hasty, Eastleigh folk are maybe an anomoly and a bit "special". ;-)

Checking in.

 

It seems like the tories are winning some they should, not winning others they should and winning some they shouldn't. Too close to call for me.

 

 

Yesssss Newton Scabbot goes from Yellow to Blue 5.8%.

 

This could be a sign for the SW and it could just be Hnats that have loads of raving lefties loonies.;)

 

I've always known this forum is nowhere near like the real world in terms of the number of veggies anf organic porridge types,

Hey Jonny they mentioned recounts in BOTH Sotin seats and now theyre talking about massive 10% swings in the south. It'd be amazin for Soton tpo be blue and wife that dirty red smudge off the map. Red areas are scabby, soton should be blue because it'll make the city seem posh and smart and generally not like t#up north

The thing that is surprising me is how the sandal wearers do not appear to be doing that well. Could it be that not that many agreed with Nick afterall?

 

 

Johnny i gave them 23% in my prediction - way out from the polls, because when i saw all these undecided voters i kinda knew most of them were gonna vote for the nasty tory party with the stigma attached that you don't want people to know you vote for because it makes you look uncaring anf hadline. It's far nicer and easier to proclaim your love for public spending (labour) and saveing the whales (libs) and as for Nick Smugg he iverplayed saying the same thing and he was too posh for the north and too ****y for those in yorkshure was see past whipper snappers like him.

 

If Britneys spears was on x factor v susan boyle norverners would vote boyle "because they liked her singing better" what a rubbish example, but the point i'm making is that they clearly look beyond the image and look for siubstance. With Nick they found none and hated his policies.
