Good night ISNT. Queen of the thread!

BecauseIAgreeWithGordon · 06/05/2010 23:12

Let's be honest - given how it usually works, if you turned up at 9.30 you would expect to be out of the polling station by 9.40 at the very, very latest

LadyBlaBlah · 06/05/2010 23:12

I love Mariella's hair

PfftThePinkoLeftyDragon · 06/05/2010 23:12

The most marginal Tory/Labour seat is Clwyd West.

Due to be announced at around 3am

tvaerialmagpiebin · 06/05/2010 23:12

ooh I like Micheal Portillo's shirt

thetoriesaretoast · 06/05/2010 23:13

Is it just me, or has Portillo improved considerably since he was ditched in 97? Doing a bit of straight talking and managing not to sound like a Tory.

policywonk · 06/05/2010 23:13

Oh shut up about the fucking MARKETS or I might have to kick something

Mariella bang on

MissMarjoribanks · 06/05/2010 23:13

I am staying up till I have a clear idea of how its going. Maybe until DSs 4am feed. I'm so sleep deprived anyway it won't make much difference.

PfftThePinkoLeftyDragon · 06/05/2010 23:13

that's not the first though

MmeLindtChocBrownies · 06/05/2010 23:13

My cousin works in finance in UK and told me months ago that the City is terrified that GB will stay in power, or even worse a HP.

He said that lots of companies have plans to move to Geneva if that happens.

RedRedApples · 06/05/2010 23:13

thank god I found you...you all ran awaaaaay!

Oh fuck off Andrew Neil why is that right wing toss pot on my fucking telly...god bless you Mariella

EweStupidToryVoters · 06/05/2010 23:13

Not much going on, the anxious tory thread hasn't been a wild success.

wubblybubbly · 06/05/2010 23:14

I love Mariella's voice. I just love Mariella really.

If one station stays open and others have closed then that is a blatent infringement on rights to vote.

policywonk · 06/05/2010 23:14

Quick scan of Guardian suggests Cheltenham at midnight might be first significant one - LibDem seat targeted by Tories

schroeder · 06/05/2010 23:14

Them's the rules though If polling stations have stayed open later than 10pm I fear they may be legal repercussions.

Aranea · 06/05/2010 23:15

Is Mariella Scottish?

jenny60 · 06/05/2010 23:15

No Portillo, the markets DO NOT dictate how we vote and what government do. Or at least they shouldn't.

MmeLindtChocBrownies · 06/05/2010 23:15

Why are they interviewing a bunch of lovies?

SpringHeeledJack · 06/05/2010 23:15

I've gorn off her since that dumbass problem page in the Observer

EweStupidToryVoters · 06/05/2010 23:15

Surely scottish nationalists won't get into bed with Cameron?

MissMarjoribanks · 06/05/2010 23:15

I don't mind Portillo now he's not a politician anymore. I admire his knowledge of culture and enjoyed his railway programme.

tvaerialmagpiebin · 06/05/2010 23:15

who is the sport spouter? what a lot of rubbish.

InNeedOfAGoodName · 06/05/2010 23:16

Good question Dom Joly - where has Lembit gone...?
