So, it looks like Boris is going to win.....

Boris Johnson.
How the feck did that happen??

Hoping the BBC are just joshing with us...

Richmond is South West my dear (my constituency).

Well, yeah, we expected that. So there will be a run off with all the 'veterans' dear Rob has organised intimidating everyone. hmmmmph. i have someone from zim living us with at the moment and she refuses to follow it. too painful, too predictable.

Right. Boris shoo-in is it?

policy, you are obviously plagued by a booze-spider. There is a thread you may be interested in where someone is mourning the fact that her dh has just 'invested' in 32 bottles of wine. Actually starting to think the Zimbabwae elections are far more important subject...should watch news more often (instead of Newsround)

yes, it is very painful. I have huge links to Zim. In fact, I may be going there in a week or so.

I think the way the opposition and the people have conducted themselves has been with such dignity, it moves me to tears.

anymore sky stats?

Sorry, x-posted. Zim stuff awful but predictable. WTF is Mbeki up to.

Right I'm going to take my wine and collection of drunk insects into the bath. Will be back.

Oh for fucks sake. is it really? I cannot believe it.

Someone tell me - is BP the new [night] mayor?

richmond is in Surrey - does that count as London?

Zac Goldsmith is the prospective MP candidate for Richmond...a whole other type of Tory buffoon...though strangely not that different either

I dunno policy. It's very liberal down in my part (libdem stronghold) but South West is an enormous constituency and has lots of very Tory parts. And loads of people round here I think would have voted Boris as an anti-Ken vote. The libdems would expect to have done ok round here but I imagine it will be a boris vote here.

in the way Croydon does!

There is a LB of Richmond which counts as SW London iirc.

Rich being the operative (partial) word (and not always tbh). I'd love to live there though tbh

I'm in SW. The Tory bit I think. Everyone has 4x4s here (not me I hasten to add) and they hate the CC.

Mercy i get a hankering and i want to MN in scottish!

while she's not here: I am puzzled about pol's insects. I think it's headlice, drunk on her own wine-y blood.

no more stats yet. Can give you some turnouts if you like (though not v interesting lol).

They have said the final result won't be in till after midnight. They've only counted 6 out of 14 so far. A LONG way to go .

I detest bendy buses but don't believe bringing back Routemasters is the answer. And it was under a Tory government that conductors disappeared off every other bus in the country except the RMs.

Why is it taking so long though, Do you know/have any ideas FIS?

The ultimate descision has not been made..but everyone assuming he's won. as bbc news says 'he is a man defined by his hair'. According to him he is also Multicultralism Embodied (had a turkisk relative or something) Proper results at midnight

foxie so is there hope for one such as me? (anti-fuckwit) Or is it really just waiting for confirmation of one's worst fears?

may have to sleep and wake up later. it is quite amusing how het up we get about this. it's not like BJ is going to ruin the economy and conduct ethnic cleansing.

According to the news, Mercy, the counting machines have been overheating and have had to be given breaks!! Heaven help us!

PW perhaps you could use your powerful pro-good, anti-evil anger to heat your bathwater? Like this but over an extended period.

Don't know why, but I'm taking it very personally. And I'm actually a Geordie.
