Labour cheering a 8,000 loss.... Bizarre

Sky news cut out just before labour vote announced to see David Cameron get into a car- what channel has better coverage??

Its what I always thought. The people of Hove get it right. The rest of the country is freakin NUTZ.

Was that not the green voters as Labour were the main challengers

I looked away from the tv, were they definitely Labour supporters that were cheering?

Fair point!

With a few notable exceptions, I would almost entirely disagree with you.

 

[wakeytom]

Fair point!

Probably after confirmation of the seat

With the 24 largest seats having Tory MPs & the 20 smallest having Labour, a nice boundary reform bill to adjust the unfairness (that the Libs thought it would be a good idea to block) will make it a even longer road back

Including dealing with the unfairness of Scotland (5) and Wales (8) having far too many seats relative to their share of the UK population, making a vote in 'non-Tory' areas count for more in voting in MP's. The Conservatives wanted to deal with this and now can.

 

[wakeytom]

At least in Eastbourne it has gone the right way

 

[Weststander]

Result!

Crack open that champagne. One seat (when they envisaged 4) out of 650.

 

[pb21]

We can now kiss good bye to the NHS and possibly Great Britain and us being in Europe.

Oh well at least the economy is improving, oh wait it isn't.

 

[Bozza]

Just waking up.
What an absolutely stunning result.
I'm concerned about [MENTION=1416]Ernest[/MENTION] 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)
