Delay on that due to intense close count |

Remembering Kerry
|
Win or lose I just love election nights.
Congrats to David Cameron, although he has a likely harder road governing now ironically with a much smaller overall majority status. Predictions are always unwise as I found out again,which is another reason I love general elections. I was over the moon to see Esther Mcvey out in Wirral West, I trudged down streets galore in that seat hoping to help see her go and so that is my result of the night. However,so many more great losses too, the Lib Dem losses of Cable, Laws, Alexander, Hughes, Swinson and Featherstone, excellent, a good payback for the things they supported this last 5 years. Awful night for Labour, I will stick with them however and hopefully,as this parliament unfolds,see a better result next time, with a new leader however. One result I am over the moon to see and I have just got in from being at a count,was James Wharton in Stockton South for the Conservatives,a really sound and decent good MP who deserved to hold his seat. Well done Smudgie there,I would inmagine you are over the moon. I would like to think,David Cameron will return to the ideas he had when he first became leader,his one nation Conservative hopes and getting rid of the nasty elements in his party. It is far harder to govern with a small majority than what he has had before,he has massively divided UK and a hostile house of commons as to him too. I wait and will watch to see what he does with it, with victory it is better to bring humilty into play. If he carries on arrogantly disregarding large sections of society which is what I see him doing,however I hope he turns back from that. Awful night for me personally, one the worst results I wanted to see but he has his chance again, I hope he does considerably better with this one.

Joey...you are a gentleman.
after tirelessly working you are still able to put together the above post graciously even though you must be disappointed. You really are a credit to yourself and your family and no matter what the end result is you must be so proud of everything you have done. I, for one, salute you

''UKIP will end up with about 3.5 million votes and ONE MP -probably.The SNP will end up with 1.5 million votes and FIFTY SIX Members of Parliament".

I must say I really am over the moon that James held his seat, I am hoping he will go far in years to come. I thought of you and all your hard work a few times through the long night, we can't all be on the winners sides, but you young man are one of life's winners in your own right. |

I can't believe that we're gonna be putting up with another 5 years of the Tories **** again, seriously everyone moans about how **** they've been yet they're still voting for them in this Election just because of Miliband.
I'm sorry I can't have Joey's dignity on this, it's disgusting that the disabled are gonna be bullied again, the working class are gonna be bullied again, the rich will hardly do anything to put the money back into the country again, the NHS will be privitised again, the NHS will lose more Doctors and Nurses again, The Police will continue to be cut. Enjoy the voters that voted for them.

I'm not surprised by the results, not even slightly, the Tories have successfully pushed the propaganda of supposed economic recovery and growth (an illusion that in fact has yet to benefit anyone outside of London) for well over a year now and it was inevitable that their "don't mess up the recovery!" message would resonate. Because people are cowards and fear-based politics work. They just... Do. That's how to win an election in the UK, full stop. So yeah, not surprised and not even disappointed. My disappointment is still over-ruled by my disappointment that Scotland didn't break away from this madness last summer. I don't "want a labour government" (though I would admittedly prefer one to the Tories), I want to be as far away from the charade of Westminster politics as possible. |
