Indeed. And Salmond started stepping into the limelight today, stating that Scotland was closer to full independence than ever. Sturgeon talks about a hand of friendship and Salmond delivers a two-fingered salute.

Bry Nylon absolutely nailed it, despite the ridiculing that followed from Tweedledum and Tweedledee. The Guardian reports some Labour big-hitters saying today: “The issue of aspiration in people’s lives; we can no longer relate to them as a party of aspiration.” Source...

Oh, I don't know...

The exit poll was 22,000.

Reinforcing my points about the nasty approach from some on the left towards seemingly everyone on the right. A war memorial. Day after VE Day. Spectacular. 597101706502119424

And also: how not to.

That's what I posted on this thread at some point in the early hours. It's a mixed stream of... - Which country can I move to? - You stupid ****ers have no idea what you've done. - I'm moving to Scotland. - Evil, selfish, nasty *******s. - Well played Murdoch. Nothing from any of the glorious...

As I've explained many times - any gloating is solely aimed at you and you alone because of the the classless and humourless way you act when things don't quite go your way. You should take a leaf from your compadre, Herr Tubthumper's book, in how to react with some dignity. My main interest...

They must be maths dunces or something. Each seat gained above 325 increases the majority by 2 (not 1) because every seat you gain is one less for the opposition.

Why would you hope for that - you don't seem to agree with (m)any of those policies. If you did, you would have voted Conservative. I would have thought you'd be hoping that the Conservative's wafer-thin majority means they are highly susceptible to back-bench revolts, are very unstable and...

I wrote my thoughts on this in the middle of the night... The outspoken intellectual snobbery that comes from some (note: not all) on the left seeks to sneer at those who vote Tory. They try to paint Tory voters as stupid, nasty, selfish and/or meek sheep of billionaire media magnates. Voting...

Well done on responding with good grace and humour. Yourself and your tag-team buddy Ernest was always a strange one - it's good to see you differentiate yourself from him now with the kind of response he would just not be capable of.

Look at the face of Ed Balls - wonderful!

Agreed. The next bottle of bubbly is waiting for this news.

To give Ernest some credit, he did warn we should be guarded with the exit poll as it would likely be wrong. He was right - it seems it underestimated just how badly Labour have performed.

"What a time to be alive" as the kids sometimes say.

Just waking up. What an absolutely stunning result. I'm concerned about Ernest though - has anyone heard from him this morning? (I don't want to waste my time quoting some of his classic contributions to this thread if he's not going to man up abd take it on the chin)

Heading for no overall majority. I'm weary - I might turn in for a few hours.
