Depressed lefty red-eye thread

hello

Chris Huhne has held Eastleigh for LDs but its close with tories

Clary are you sure about Erewash?

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

And Eastleigh has turned LibDem.

It is all a bit Eurovision Song Contest, the lady from Surrey SthWest

Habbs- JR is a cunt, regardless of how far left you are.

bloody hell 77 per cent turnout in east renfrewshire. we really are muhc cooler than the english.

But lost Harrowgate...

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???

Erewash is a conservative gain from labour 10.5% swing!!!!!!!!!!

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.

clemmette yes it was on ITV and also on BBC website, no detail so don't know swing

That's it, bed beckons... Toodle pip everyone, will pop back in the morning to see how it's going.

Good luck staying up! And good luck Gordon.

Am awake keep having nightmares of DC as PM. A seagull told me

Right off to bed

See you all for commiserations or fingers crossed not in the morning

smug hague on the beeb

I'm losing my stamina now... ready for bed.

Got a friend involved in the Harrogate campaign for the LDs. He'll be devastated

woohoo lab hold brum edgbaston! rumour on ITV...

edgbaston hold????

mmm yes that's a new Labour candidate in erewash (who was MP??? racks brains...too late in day...)

They are not doing so well new candidates are they?

Derbys South con gain too

Um- what is Ham Shine please?

A labour hold would be great in Edgbaston, just waiting for confirmation it would seem!
