Three party leaders resign in the space of an hour!

[Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g]

Yes, another party political thread. No apologies here. I'm 53 and I've never seen anything like this in my life.

What will Natalie Bennett do?

[kilmuir]

Who has gone?

[ExitPursuedByABear]

Total meltdown all over the place.

[Justusemyname]

Nigel
Nick
Ed

[Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g]

Farage, Clegg, Miliband, in order of resignation.

[MonikerisMonica]

Ed & Nick have fallen on their swords - who's the third?

[EeyoresTail]

I'm shocked!

[QuintShhhhhh]

Well they should. They got it all so wrong. Hubris.

[Jackieharris]

Jim Murphy should have resigned too.

That kind of arrogance to cling on now when he's not even a mp is exactly why he's so unpopular!

[Baaaaaaaaaaaa]

Wonder if David (Miliband) will come back now?

I'm a conservative through and through but think Labour would have won if Ed hadn't stabbed his brother in the back. He was naver a man to be trusted and the electorate knew that.

[MissingKittyCat]

Why is anybody surprised? None of them could have recovered from this!

[trilbydoll]

Can you be a party leader if you're not an MP? The Lib Dems don't have many to choose from, I was thinking this morning it might not be very helpful for Nick to resign.

[Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g]

It's very hard to see what the Scottish Labour Party can do now.

If I were David's wife/partner, I'd be hoping against hope that he'd stay away. What a grim job.

[Northernlurker]

Natalie Bennett said last night she would be serving out her term.

[soontobemumofthree]

I can't see why Natalie Bennett would have to go.
Sad to see Vince Cable voted out.

[Lemonylemon]

Not sad to see Ed Balls voted out.

[Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g]

I was just musing that they didn't hit their target of two seats and she didn't have much of a campaign. However, it was an amazing achievement to get Caroline Lucas re-elected.

[Northernlurker]

Compared to the oblivion that's the labour and lib dem scenarios though, Natalie, even falling over her words and having not increased their base, has done ok. She's got the same number of MPs as Scottish Labour now. Crazy, crazy world.

[ComposHatComesBack]

Baaaa David M is no longer an MP, there is no way he could lead the party and act as leader of the opposition.

Can we also drop the 'stabbed his brother in the back' nonsense? They both stood for election and Ed won. It was a leadership election not a coronation.

[Lemonylemon]

Not sad to see George Galloway voted out.

[Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g]

I agree, Compos, about the backstabbing. I'm sure a safe seat could be found for David, though, should he fancy coming back to UK politics. I don't think it would be a good idea, however.

[Morelikeguidelines]

I think Chuka Ummana might be good.

[Andcake]

No labour needs Evette cooper! Strong, intuitive female...

[Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g]

She didn't have a seat. She was trying to get elected for the first time.
