[Closed] The All Night Election Results Thread

The problem is Farage is taken almost as seriously now as Hitler was 5 or 10 years before he took power in Germany.

Farage scares me, because he comes across as a joke and still people vote for him.

The queen is going to be working hard over the next few days.

If exit poll is right Farron, Davey go, Cable just hangs on. Labour hardly win any LD facing seats.

Can someone explain to me what Scotland are going to achieve by only having SNP MP's?

They have made it so the cons will have control of the next parliament and surely there isn't going to be another independence referendum anytime soon.

It'll speed up the process of getting independence and I wouldn't be so sure about there not being another referendum any time soon.

I want Farage to win but if the population want red Ed to be their Dear Leader so be it but just hope that one day you will not hear me say "I told you soooo ... "

Not in a million * years will I ever dream of that * gaining power.

No, no, not PM but rather to win the seat he is standing for. A step at a time.

You have to bear in mind the country/people is still not ready for massive change for generations to come ...

What balls!

In fairness, Bumblebee bought it up.

edit: apropos of Nick god I wish we understood coalitions in the uk.

Farage unlikely in Thanet South, Tories confident according to Twitter. UKIP moves to the left and becomes a northern party.

What? And abandon their privileged hedge fund managing roots?

It depends, if Farage quits then he's yesterdays man. If he goes back on his pledge to quit as leader if not elected then he - at a stroke - becomes nothing more than a hypocrite (yeah, I know) and therefore just another lying two faced politician.

Calm down Ukip. It's 'exit polls' not 'exit Poles'

Im sorry I'll get my coat

MuddyD - you had it at "yeah, I know"

Oh well another 5 Tory years, I'll live with the it, then I saw gove was on the BBC, that man knows how to grind my gears !

Ten years before Hitler took power in germany he was in prison after the Beerhall Putsch. In what way is that similar to Nigel?

edit: actually nine years but the point stands.

I like that bloke Farage if he goes then I will just have to switch back to voting Tories in future.

The whole place is in slow demise anyway because of getting their knickers twisted/stuck with EU ZM bureaucrats ...

Jeremy sodding Vine with his crappy graphics. When oh when will it end?

If the SNP had their way Scotland would be out of the EU.

Not true, SNP very pro EU.

god I wish we understood coalitions in the uk.

this many times over. The last few weeks have been so full of people ruling out coalitions that there's little can be done without going back on that, especially if the Exit is even slightly close

No, I still stand by my original comment. I wouldn't want him having the slightest bit of say in how the country was run. If nothing else he exists to remind how many idiots I share this island with and that an influx of immigrants who are different to them would be no bad thing.

Calder Valley predicted as Tory at the moment.

Is that not STW heartland?

[shakes head]

Farage/UKIP was the reason the Blue party offered a referendum.

If Cameron had won a proper majority that referendum might have happened.

It's just possible that referendum would have gone Farage's way.

Farage could have bowed out at that point with his entire political ambition realized. How many politicians in history have achieved *everything* they wanted?

He got very, very close and deserves credit for that.

Well, no harm to me as I am an alien but I just feel sorry for the locals ...

Sorry got Farron's seat wrong he should be safe

Impressive results for ukip, 2nd ahead of the Tories in 2 northern counts so far, not good for labour there

Though if farige looses in s Thanet they may be in trouble

The colour of the country so far[img] :large[/img]

😀 Brilliant

Andrew Neil saying there's been no "green surge" - the polling seems to suggest a several hundred percent increase in their vote share so that seems pretty harsh.

Have you ever been to Calderdale? Apart from the BBC-bohemian-hippy cabal in Hebden it's all farmers and white working class racists 🙂

Lemonysam - be fair I said 5-10 and I don't think he's being an idiot with a pistol invalidates my point.

Reckless won't win, Clacton and Thurrock are the favourites for UKIP.

I hate Andrew Neil, he's a Paxman parody. He interviews like a negative robot with a clown face.

Dimblers is a class act though.

Can you explain to me what Scotland would achieve by having Labour MPs?

Having a government not run by the conservatives.

3 ports down. 😳 Am I officially a gout risk?

EDIT: they were quite large ports.

Dazh - I was through Hebden Bridge on Sunday. Seemed full of folks in tight lycra. 🙂

Please may Galloway lose.

Only three bottles????

.....well I doubt the margin of error is so great that we will see a Labour coalition being formed.

Bargh.

Good for me in a way though as the cons are going to fund post grad study properly from 2016.

I'm on four man!

felt like more 😳

@ rone, cool, number 4 it is then!

If the exit polls are right, then you are not.

Hoping to **** they are not, obviously.

Assuming we're looking at the exit polls, then it's not our fault. Even if every seat in Scotland was Labour, the Tories would still win.

And just how do you think middle aged men on 7000 quid bikes vote? 😀
