Erm no they wont they dont have enough seats thank fook

Crucial times ahead and some serious inter-party negotiations to take place imo.

Cameron is right to say that the country wants a change from Brown, happily, it seems that he isn't the change they had in mind.

Yep,although the Lib Dems are gutted about their overall seats they still have a big say in the next government which may be good thing long term.

I have. Right next to "community national service for 16 year olds".

I honestly thought they were a spoof by the Labour Party or the Lib Dems.

At the moment there are some trousers at Tory Central that might be going Brown.

Yep.

Everything has been so stacked in their favour yet they've still managed to screw it up. It really should have been a huge Tory majority yet they can't even get a majority of any sort. Proof if ever it were needed of their leadership's incompetence.

Ruffling 'call me Dave' 's hair before a televised debate and airbrushing some posters doesn't really add up to a credible election strategy. The only thing they've done well was the 'Dave is campaigning through the night' stunt - which was a clever one - and bribing the BBC to let Nick Robinson campaign for them on the news every day.

My mate Greg increased his majority and retained his seat.

Even our local nutter (he makes Damo look bland) managed to gather 200 people to vote for him and didn't come bottom of the list this time - mind he also managed "by a clerical error" to get himself listed on both the national and local ballot papers by means of accidentally spelling his own surname wrong on the wrong application paper - I nearly voted for him on the strength of that amazing blunder - how the hell he'd reconcile being elected to Leeds City Council AND as our MP I don't know...

Tory have got in my area I’m doomed!

worst possible result. Just drags things out.

We'll wind up having another general election within 6 months.

Conservatives have won the election, they should have the right to try and form a government but as a minority party it will be down to the other parties what policies they get to implement, that should be interesting

A lot of deperate labour supporters suggesting that as they didnt lose as badly as they thought that is somehow a victory

I'm a top bloke, I should be allowed to own a Ferrari. Unfortunately it doesn't work like that.
Constitutionaly the Conservatives haven't won anything and have no absolute right to form a government. If you want to discuss electoral reform then you would have to say that they only polled 36% of the total vote so far, that means 64% of voters don't want them - the majority. Also, the Lib Dems poll 22% of the vote but only get around 8% of the seats in parliament. So don't talk about "rights" and "winning".

Intersting times ahead. Crucially for Labour they haven't lost the big hitters in the party unlike the Tories when Blair thumped Major. The Tories were decimated, the head was cut off the chicken that day.

I suspect they didn't believe the polls were going to reflect the actual vote. My guess is they thought many traditional Labour people were unwilling to admit to wanting to vote Tory, and that the undecideds were mostly going to go for Dave in the end. Actually the polls seem to have been pretty good - apart from the Lib Dems dropping - but then that was soemthing I was expecting.

Spot on.

I don't understand all the poncing and moaning. Nobody's won as a single party, and therefore no party is in a position to form a government without the coalition with others. Simples as that.

What Clegg just said on the Television seems ridiculous. They all know the rules before everything. Is Clegg selling out his own party? Is his true Tory routes coming through? or was it just for Television purposes?
