Yep that was the talk earlier this week that even if Labour had less seats they might be able to govern because they could rely on more support from the House as a whole, mainly because they would have SNP backing on most issues

It's looking like the Tories could have a big enough lead that they will be comfortably in the driving seat though

Okay thanks. Like I said I wasn't too sure as it's not my home country. From an outsiders point of view Ed would have had my vote. Hopefully you guys will take an interest in our referendum in a few weeks. /offtopic

Yeah that's the one. I won't get complacent about though. If we do we will be the first country to pass it by overall majority from a vote, which would be nice.
