Going by this SNP landslide in Scotland, probably.



Just to clarify, I didn't vote for the conservatives.

[bots]

i think its heading for a tory majority

Should've given them bloody independence, useless bastards

Can see the country being more split than ever after this.

If there's another referendum (and there would be strong calls for it with these numbers) I could see them winning it this time and with an impending EU referendum which'll be dictated by the press we could see us breaking the union and out of Europe within a few years

There will be riots again before the end of the next parliament, mark my words

Lib Dems win their second seat

Sweepstake on Miliband's resignation: I say he resigns by 11am tomorrow. Clegg too if he doesn't win his seat, otherwise I think he'll hang on a bit longer

I hope Cleggy doesn't resign.

I have a feeling he won't resign just yet

the next hour the results will flood in

I don't even want to entertain the thought of an EU-less and Scotland-less UK.

I don't want Ed to resign but I fear what Jon Sopel talked about earlier how there'll be Blairites calling for another leader of his ilk and God forbid they send the Labour party back to the centre right when we've just had the first leader in many years who has taken it back as near to its socialist roots as possible

Typical drive them
6 feet under then.

Whole core of Lib Dems likely to be wiped out; Alexander gone, Davey gone, Hughes gone, Clegg and Cable possibly gone..

Lib Dems could be in need of a complete overhaul

[bots]

Jim Murphy is a genuine nice guy, he wasn't hated

[MTVN]

If Miliband has fought a more Blairite campaign he would have done better. Look at Labour's pledge card from 1997:



Clear practical promises laid out and how they will all be implemented

And then compare that this year with the Edstone:



The vaguest pledges you could ever make put forth on a ridiculous gimmick.

Miliband fought a better campaign than expected but not good enough

[Ross.]

I would be prepared to give Labour a chance of they get into power (which is unlikely tonight) but I don't have the faith in them that I used to have.

[Ross.]

The Lib Dems are going to have to completely rebuild themselves after tonight.

[Kizzy]

there's ages to go yet...
