Awol Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Conservative majority expected. Would be interesting to know how the pre-election polls have been so consistently and wildly wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penguin Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Conservative majority expected. Would be interesting to know how the pre-election polls have been so consistently and wildly wrong. I'd imagine Tories as a whole are a lot more inclined to keep their cards close to their chest due to the negative image it seems to have atm. For example the prevelance of bashing Tories on social media is pretty startling just search Tory on Twitter, all seems to be negative. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted May 8, 2015 Author Share Posted May 8, 2015 The majority must be on surely ?As it seems. What an utterly distressing thing. Why bother? Why bother to exist? What result did you want to see snowy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, lefties do tend to be quite shouty and aggressive in their self righteousness which I think puts a lot of potential voters off. Rumours that Ed Balls may lose his seat, that would be delicious! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted May 8, 2015 Author Share Posted May 8, 2015 How can labour ever win again after such a bad kickarsing in Scotland I hope ed balls loses his seat that would be the best result of tge night. Can't stand that slimy cretin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penguin Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 (edited) Ignoring the fact it's UKIP. The fact a party can (as of now) have 12.2% of the vote but only one seat seems beyond farcical to me. Edited May 8, 2015 by penguin 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PompeyVillan Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 And so The Sun hoodoo continues. They've backed the winners for the last 30 years. This is a victory for ignorance and apathy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PompeyVillan Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 So the SNP will demand another referendum on independence, stoked up by the Tories. They'll be hard to ignore now. Is a conservative ukip coalition likely? No UKIP only have one seat, possibly two. They have tons of votes though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donnie Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 So many pissed off liberals on here! LOLZ! In my lifetime England has always rejected left wing politics. Miliband tried to veer Labour further left and it backfired. Blair wasn't stupid. I'm confused how / why so many people voted SNP but yet Scotland voted NO?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
This Could Be Rotterdam Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 (edited) A lib dem mp on midlands today who lost his seat just said 'we fought like tigers to win'. Well there's their mistake. They should have fought like lions! Edited May 8, 2015 by ThisCouldBeRotterdam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wazzap24 Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 There are a lot of people out there who voted Tory and don't really know what they have done. This next five years is going to be brutal for many. Fair play to the Tories, they had the more credible leader, the backing of the press and their campaign team used the most powerful weapon at their disposal - fear. They have done a cracking job of duping people into believing a lie. Selfishly, I should just about be ok for the next 5 years, providing I don't get sick or lose my job, but a lot of people won't be. A sad day for the UK. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Well, when the dust settles and we can take a broader view of this election I think one positive that will come out of it will be that I got a Super Furry Animals ticket from one of the candidates. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eames Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 There are a lot of people out there who voted Tory and don't really know what they have done What a load of sanctimonious patronising bollocks. Who are you to presume that anyone voting for any political party has done it out of ignorance simply on the basis that they disagree with you. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
