A crazy exit poll. I wasn't expecting that. Well at least the liberals might be destroyed.

You may well be right and I actually like proper coalitions; not the current nonsense with two idealogical opposed parties shoe-horned together and muddling through.

The Tories will not be running the country, this is all I really care about at the moment. One step at a time.

BBC, ITV and Sky teamed up - it's one and the same as BBC reported as Big Ben struck 10.

I got the update from Sky News. Same results as the BBC one which also popped up so I guess the same source.

Fantastic result if correct. It's all about the economy & thankfully it's looking as if the public have cottoned on

I know, but if the exit poll was the other way round you'd be crowing from the rooftops very loudly right now.

If the exit poll turns out to be right we can have a good laugh at UKIP.

After a shambolic month where Cameron was humiliated in a EU vote, had the chair of the party resign and seen Boris position himself for the impending election defeat his lead slips further. Not even the demotion of Gove will save him.

Ironic to see Mr Gove on the BBC right now, talking about the exit poll!

What's everybody watching then?

C4 for me, with David Mitchell & Jeremy Paxman right now.

I might get serious later, but I'm feeling just a little alternative at the present time. Crazy, I know.

If these polls are accurate, and there's no reason to believe they're not, it's a reflection of a number of quite a few sad things 1) How self centred the country has become, I live in hope that we become more caring about the less well off, but we don't do we 2) The influence of the press looms as large as ever. Actually, I'll leave it at 2 as I'm feeling sad.
