Did you get the vibes that something would happen with the student votes? I'm so proud that our dcs engaged, went and voted, and can see direct results. Ds told me about his facebook feed going mad with his Labour friends posting things. It's only now I realise the significance of that action. Whatever we voted ourselves, we surely must be pleased that this generation has woken up to the importance of engaging in democracy. Ds was frustrated as his half of the Warwick Uni campus was safe Conservative (the other half is South Coventry and was Labour already), but all the students renting in Leamington took down the Conservative MP there. And as for Canterbury. Amazing.
