Just starting this so that we can all post our thoughts throughout the day.

My wish for today is that as many people as possible GO OUT AND VOTE.

I cannot vote as I have been living abroad for over 15 years so if anyone wants to vote for me, I would like to vote for Gordon Brown. Voting by MN proxy

Or are you there?!

toccatanfudge · 07/05/2010 00:32

I'm ok - just roleld a fag, got the kettle on, making some good strong coffee.

Just one of those stupid things that people say without any malice you know off the cuff remarks that for most people are just that, and for most people it's just a joke it just makes me ermmmm well lose the plot somewhat.

Cartoose · 07/05/2010 00:33

BB ticker now showing Lab 3 Green 1. Brighton? Nothing online.

melpomene · 07/05/2010 00:37

Nothing on BBC yet about Edin South - website says estimated declaration time for that seat is 3:30:00 AM

gaelicsheep · 07/05/2010 00:38

BBC have added a seat coloured green to their counter. Nothing shown on TV - which is that one then?

mspotatochip · 07/05/2010 00:38

gaelicsheep · 07/05/2010 00:39

Ah, it's online now. Sinn Fein.

DreamsInBinary · 07/05/2010 00:39

Sorry knockraven - Lab 3, Sinn Fein 1

Kaloki · 07/05/2010 00:40

So.. as far as I can tell from the woman talking, no one has reexamined the voting since the suffragettes?! Eh?

melpomene · 07/05/2010 00:40

No, BBC website says the 'green' seat is sinn fein in northern ireland. Green on the ticker represents all other parties.

toccatanfudge · 07/05/2010 00:40

right where was I?

chilli cheese bite anyone??

melpomene · 07/05/2010 00:41

iamfabregasted · 07/05/2010 00:41

coffee anyone

Cartoose · 07/05/2010 00:43

chilli cheese bite sounds pretty good. Thanks!

Kaloki · 07/05/2010 00:44

This isn't really going to help voter apathy is it? With people not being able to vote

HollyGoHeavily · 07/05/2010 00:44

That really quite angry woman the BBC keep interviewing in Sheffield reminds me of someone - an actress i think .....
