LibDems now down £29,000. An absolute slaughter.
I just want to see Scottish independence and the UK leave the EU. That would be… glorious.
Why?
Orkney & Shetland stay out of SNP hands. Cancel the independence talk…
Wonder if they’ll try to stay in the UK if Scotland goes…
That was always the LD banker
1.) No reason. I’d just like to see it.
2.) The EU leaches off of the UK (and Germany) similar to how the UN leaches off the US. Would be nice to see at least the UK tell the EU to screw off and support themselves.
Edinburgh and London are both far away, and unconcerned, from their perspective. That’s no slam on them.
Some people just want to watch the world burn.
In other news - Simon Hughes is out, Alex Salmond is in (not in the same constituency)
A nuanced and well informed perspective. Thanks.
No problem!
The DUP have lost South Antrim, which includes Newtownabbey. The Reduced Shakespeare Company are claiming credit.
Alex Salmond to Westminster!
LOL. “Pitt the Glint in the Milkman’s Eye.” Love it!
A tangential question: Do most fair-minded Brits see Ed Miliband as having won the Labour leadership fair and square over his brother in 2010, or do they see him as a disloyal Cain-and-Abel backstabber for how things unfolded?
The counting seems to be going slower than expected - there were supposed to be 400 seats reported by 4:30 AM, but only about 200 have
Maybe he can become leader of the Tory Party.
Eh? Ed beat David under the rules for electing a Labour leader. That’s all.
Boris wants us all to go make breakfast. Hurrah!
Vince Cable gone
Vince Cable lost Twickenham for the LibDems.
