Liked the dig the Dark Lord got in about money.

CatIsSleepy · 11/05/2010 20:50

oh god it's really sinking in

we have a tory PM don't we

Heathcliffscathy · 11/05/2010 20:50

if this is the end of macho two party politics I am full of joy.

we don't know what the deal is yet.

new labour needs a fucking good shake along roy hattersley's lines (god bless him and all who sail in him). this could do it.

i know you LOATHE him with a passion. i know where he went to school pisses you off so much. but when i put him against michael howard/IDS/even tarzan, he seems marginally more human.

this could be a messy and sticky time, that really revitalises our political system. I am very pleased about that.

this could be the best thing that has happened for lefties/progressives in this country for a very long time indeed.

a toast to extended maternity leave

Have a pork pie Beta.

We're all a Coalition of the UnWilling now, aren't we?

Loujalou · 11/05/2010 20:49

Well I thought the lib dems stood for the same as me. But am obviously more left wing than the rest of them.

A toast. To free nursery places.

leavingonajetplane · 11/05/2010 20:49

I want the tardis to crash land in Downing Street and the Doctor to rip off his mask

It may well be for the best that they rule and its short (clinging on firmly) but this is still bloody awful to watch.

Its like going backwards

DavidHameron · 11/05/2010 20:48

didja hear people shouting Tory scum at the gates of Downing St?

opposition ROCKS...

onebatmother · 11/05/2010 20:48

"Face like a slapped arse" barely covers my look.

ZephirineDrouhin · 11/05/2010 20:48

I think we've done well to end up with Lib Dems keeping the reins on Tories.

Watching Hameron's speech brings home the horror though.

Dd just heckled him shouting "you're being rubbish" at TV.

(Must get her back into bed.)

Loujalou · 11/05/2010 20:47

I have him on mute (fingers in ears la la la la la la). Think I might sob more if I listen to him.

DavidHameron · 11/05/2010 20:47

GetOrfMoiLand · 11/05/2010 20:47

Think they should have just been honest and given Rupert Murdoch the keys to No.10

hungysavingexpertdotcom · 11/05/2010 20:46

A toast. To short hospital waiting lists.

jennylindinha · 11/05/2010 20:46

on my iPhone, DP on the laptop... I am sat here in tears, can't stop crying. So depressing. Just hope Gordon & Sarah can get a good relaxing holiday now.

Pass me the wine and chocolate...

scoutliam · 11/05/2010 20:46

Meh

MmeLindt · 11/05/2010 20:46

Poor darling. We lefties are very inclusive.

ImSoNotTelling · 11/05/2010 20:46

they have to start with tribute to previous bods

sure it's the done thing/form etc

he is so so hammy

full coalition

how long for

what's the deal

libdems haven't met yet but cams announced it, that means they are sure it will be agreed by lib dem bunch, thus they must have given them quite a bit?

policywonk · 11/05/2010 20:46

Yes Sopel has been coming across as a Tory quite a lot. I wonder how many fully paid-up members of the Monday Club the BBC has to employ before r-wingers stop accusing it of having a stonking lefty bias?

At least we're not Franca, laydeesangennelmen. Her prime minister president head of gvt is Berlosconi
