    Talking to the guy in the local polling station today – He seemed to think that turn out was huge. So are the big parties going to take a hammering?

    OK then – if the large parties are going to take a hammering – who is going to benefit? All the small ones or one in particular?

    Will the big parties take a hammering? Yep. BUT, this is the shires voting, the traditional winners in these (as opposed to metropolitan areas) are the Conservatives. It could be worse for them than for labour.

    Interesting times

    Depends what you mean by large parties. I expect labour to be hammered. SNP to do well. they are the large parties round here. tories are a small party in Scotland but I don’t think it will affect them too badly. Greens and SNP to be the beneficiaries

    BNP & UKIP will benefit IMO

    EDIT: UKIP are just the military wing of the Tories anyway with the BNP a secret sub wing of that

    Conversley, talking to the people in our local polling station, the turn out was tiny.

    It won’t make any difference whether the big parties lose out or not. We’ll still end up with a load of politicians in charge, looking after their own interests, rather than any sort of benevolent leader. Nothing will change but the faces and the smug smiles. We’ll still pay our taxes, and they’ll still spend them how they want, while everyone else will whinge and bitch about how they’re spending it all.

    Except if the UKIP or BNP get any sort of power, in which case things would change drastically for the worse…
