Yup little Nicola Kranky is a canny woman, she got what she wanted a Tory government, but methinks it could backfire, she wanted a minority tory government where she could do deals for the benefit of Scotland by not voting with Labour, anyhow it is crystal clear that we have a divided nation as verified by voting patterns, North and South, we will soon hear the deniers bleating I never voted Tory when the axe falls, those that have voted for them have given them carte blanche to carry on with their crusade against the NHS the sick and disabled and the unemployed, tighten your belts folks its going to be a bumpy ride.
With hindsight I think Labour had lost touch with the working man. I think they'd have done a lot better if they'd had taken some of UKIP'S policies added to their own (eg EU vote,immigration, on foreign aid and some others. Not sure if Labour appeared as more to the right to the public as compared to the SNP which wiped Labour out in Scotland (can't believe all the hype put out that their main aim was about independence (not all her supporters would have been) but was about being against austerity ) Labour need a leader like Nicola Sturgeon
Would like to see the counts overall of how many votes each party got
Many big names in politics got their P45's this morning, but for, me Ed BALLS is the greatest result. I wonder, did his little Yvette manage to hold on to her seat ?
Ed Milliband was not the right person from the start and obviously made no impact .
Nicola seems to have got her wish when hoping that British politics will never be the same again, but not so sure she meant it quite like this.

I did not vote and I never will while this unfair voting system is in place. If anyone needs an example: UKIP and the Greens totalled 5 million vote and got a coulple of seats and the SNP get 1.5 million votes and get 50+. I wonder how many seats the Tories scraped in with. Proportional representation is a much fairer system
Congratulations Britain! 99% of us are completely f**ked, as is the NHS, the education system and my entire generation. You've voted for food banks instead of freedom, for the rich instead of the poor and worst of all for profit over people. You've successfully been conned into thinking that things are better than they were 5 years ago. Despite the soaring number of homeless people, children being raised in poverty, families relying on food banks and the empty shell of what was once an incredible national health service run for the benefit of the public not private sector profit. You have voted for the party that tricked this nation into bailing the banks out of a crisis that the bankers themselves caused! You have voted for a party that allowed the wealthiest 1000 people in this country to double their wealth in just 5 years. In the meantime working class people's pay packages have been hit their hardest for 40 years. You voted for the party that allows the richest 1% to pay on average a real terms tax on their wealth of only 35% percent while the bottom 50% pay an average real terms tax of 45%. You've voted for the party whose MPs almost all voted "NO" on a law that should have been passed to allow investigations into alleged historic paedophilia on a mass scale to be carried out more thoroughly and honestly. Do you know why? Because some of the alleged persecutors were ex Tory MPs and Conservative party funders! You've voted for the party who have sided with Rupert Murdoch to create and unfair and at times racist smear campaign against Ed Miliband and his party. You've voted for more privatisation, austerity and social warfare. You've voted for a party whose main purpose is to generate wealth for their business owning, bank running, rich, shareholder friends. At the expense of everybody else.
So I say once again Britain, well done. A real standing f**king ovation for you.
With saying all this,GE2015 Tory voters on Wirral- your votes accounted for nothing.
Excellent rant Rude, it beats me why working folk are taken in by the duplicitous Tory lies, having said that, when I win the Euromillions tonight I'll vote Tory next time because I know they will look after me and keep you little people in your place. I'll send you a card from Barbados. Happy days.
