(07 May 2015, 9:52 pm)aureolin Lib Dems have lost their deposit in Houghton & Sunderland South. 5th place.

I'm pleased Bridget has won, as she's one of the few Labour MPs I trust these days.

Hopefully she can push on with her Big Bus campaign! Big Grin

I think the Lib Dems will lose their deposit in a lot of places tonight.

The sense of betrayal, and I'm not just talking about tuition fees, still runs deep among many left-wingers not wishing to support Labour.

What will be interesting, if Labour don't end up in power - is the impact of the Scottish vote.
In their quest for power and in killing off Labour north of the border, the SNP have effectively ensured another 5 years of Tory rule.

If the exit poll is 100% accurate though, the Labour + SNP seats wouldn't equate to what the Tories have. Labour killed off Labour, and I really don't blame the way any of our brothers and sisters north of the border have voted.

Whilst I agree with you about Labour killing off Labour in England, the whole independence thing has really stirred up interest in the SNP.
The switch has been massive and I don't think that is totally down to the last Labour government.

I don't think the poll will be 100% accurate at all. There will be surprises all over the place.

I don't blame the SNP for ensuring another five years of Tory rule. I disagree with the principle of tactical voting. People should vote for whichever political candidate they feel represents them the best. If Scottish voters believe the SNP will represent their interests best then so be it - even if it has the inadvertent effect of enabling another period of Tory rule. Labour (and the Lib-Dems) should have done more to appeal to the Scottish electorate. If they failed to do this, it's on them, not the SNP.
