** Official MN Election Night Thread - let's hold hands and wait together ** Pt2

[toccatanfudge]

oops filled the other one

I haven't heard any reports of irregularities in highly marginal seats.

Hm.

So, give them a week and the Queen will have to step in. Can't you just picture her, strolling in, best Mother voice "David, Gordon. STOP IT NOW. Now play together nicely, you go over there, you go over there, and you may play with the country now. Okay?"

"The British People have spoken. Unfortunately what they said was "errrrm."

Heh

yes amused my tired mind this morning so thought I'd share - so true though it is a bit "ermm" isn't it

have put washing on, mainly to make me stand up and not fall asleep at pc.

Right I'm finally off to do something useful

Good luck in your usefulness!

I am going to a mock tribunal this afternoon (it seemed such a good idea at the time...) and have to read the 32 page bundle beforehand.

flowery I don't think I have ever seen you on a thread that is not employment related

I need to know. Did Willie McCrea sing a gospel song when declared? Were any of you watching?

I went to bed at 3:45 and woke up at 6:45. Took children to school. DD only at school until 11:30 so will need to get her and friend then.

Nothing is going to get sorted for ages is it?

no, I reckon we could snooze through the weekend and not miss out on anything vital now.

kitten - that sounds like a good plan lol

We have officially reached a Hung Parliament now.

I have started a thread in Good Housekeeping (wasn't sure where to stick it as I'm sure there'll be politics talk in it too, and some people have work/children stuff to do rather than housework) if anyone wants to join me over there as well to plod through the day

yes just seen the kitten

will pop in and out of thread - mostly to keep going!!!!

when is clegg going to make this announcement? got to go out in half an hour. (best set the alarm!!

They do occasionally let me out of Employment, yes

Frantically busy at the moment though so it's rare to see me hanging round elsewhere just now, you are lucky, a rare sighting of the lesser-spotted flowery

gosh yes - that's a point hello flowery

hello

Is Nick Clegg saying something at 10:30? Is Gordon Brown still asleep? I suppose someone will wake him up.

What has NC got to say? "Hi, my party has not done too well, but neither has anyone else's so hey, I'm at the end of the phone"

Labour's Foreign Secretary David Miliband tweets: Just woken up to hear someone on the BBC saying I was talking to Vince Cable. Nonsense! I've been having a kip!

Yes there is an announcement due form Clegg at 10.30. He aid he will talk to Cameron first. Cameron is resting apparently. Gordon is in Downing St - I genuinley think that will not be for long though and Cameron will be installed as PM. I just cannot see the Privy Council, Civil Service and The Crown allowing this to drag on.

Just listenng to a Govt Gilts trader in the City he said the UK has until Monday morning to get this sorted out otherwise the financial markets will deliver a swift and severe judgement.

clegg sticking with let the cons have a go at forming gov first in national interest
