All down to the swing.

Tory overall majority very very likely.

Jaquelinehyde · 07/05/2010 01:16

why do the Irish counts read it out so we don't know which parties they are talking about!

Clary · 07/05/2010 01:16

BIAWG yes it's because if the swing of 9.1% was replicated across the UK (which it won't be we hope) the Tories would win all their targets and more and get a majority.

But as we see Torbay for example undermines that theory.

EweStupidToryVoters · 07/05/2010 01:17

I just really really don't want Phillipa Stroud to win in Sutton and Cheam... at this point, I will be happy with that.

DP just popped home, insufferably smug in a typical tory boy fashion. I sent him back to the count promptly.

yay sylvia hermon. She's a good woman and will probably vote with labour.

smallishsheep · 07/05/2010 01:18

Shit
Am off to bed. Can watch no longer. I really hope Ben Bradshaw can hold his seat here. I do fear I will be waking up to bad news

BecauseIAgreeWithGordon · 07/05/2010 01:19

So it's not a real thing, just based on what's happened so far?

Jaquelinehyde · 07/05/2010 01:19

Please God hurry up and show the Hastings and Rye results.

MmeLindtChocBrownies · 07/05/2010 01:19

Oh, isn't that nice to hear the Welsh guy speak Welsh. It sounds so lovely.

CristinaTheAstonishing · 07/05/2010 01:20

Monkeysmama - is your ex boss a woman? I know you said a dick, but could equally apply to UKIP candidates. Seems UKIP have put forward a bunch of witches.

clemetteakaSylviaPankhurst · 07/05/2010 01:21

BBC News site shows average swing to Cons is 4.1%, despite these big swings...

WilfSellOut · 07/05/2010 01:21

Keep dozing off, though perked up at Campbell. But still need more results as still a bit random. A bit? Surely?

GB in Kirkaldy. None of the commentators can pronounce the name of the town.

RedRedApples · 07/05/2010 01:22

Oh I am bored with how much I despise Andrew Neil why is a right wing reactionary piece of shit like him on the fucking BBC?

Jaquelinehyde · 07/05/2010 01:23

Labour hold Sedgefield but an 11.6% swing to Conservative

RedRedApples · 07/05/2010 01:24

cock

ReshapeWhileDamp · 07/05/2010 01:24

Ouch, Sedgefield. Must have missed that while blanking out Brillopad O'Neill

SleeplessValhalla · 07/05/2010 01:24

wish I'd gone to bed an hour ago dreaming of hung -politicians- parliament. And the whisky on top of camomile tea was a bad move.

Beachcomber · 07/05/2010 01:25

Has the odious Andrew Neil been boozing with the luvvies? Is that what is making him so hectoring and rude?
