Huhne held with a 3% swing, and Eastbourne taken. Maybe I can go to bed a bit happier now

Can see how ham shine doesn't really travel. I think you had to be there at that particular moment of brilliance.

well I know, some of Ashbourne not so posh, but the area in general is pretty swanky.

Unlike Erewash ffs - Ilkeston and surrounding villages, why are they voting Tory???

Oh yes, just seen it. I have lots of young counsins in Erewash voting for the first time; they all voted Green. I didn't want to disabuse them of their idealism. Grrr.
