General Election 2010 All-Nighter Edition

[Moshe Gariani]

Eastbourne gone Yellow by 3500... what was all the fuss about??

very mixed messages leaked through the evening and Tory gains from LibDems elsewhere put the rightful result in jeopardy - would have been an outrage if Waterson has somehow clung on despite being about the worst constituency MP it is possible to imagine...

 

[philsussex]

Bloody doddery old fools in Eastbourne

To Lembit Opek... "You have just lost one of the safest Lib Dem seats in Britain, How do you want to put it?"

Paxman at his finest!

Nick Griffin, leader of the BNP, tells Sky News he thinks Labour's Margaret Hodge will hold the seat he's contesting in Barking, but he'll come second. Mr Griffin also says the BNP are "making progress", but it's "a long haul".

I thought the BNP had a good chance of winning that seat.

The sleeping Mrs Titanic will be very pleased for you.

ah, that's nice... I'm off to bed now - have got Sleeves's Stag Weekend starting tomorrow afternoon and don't need to handicap myself

expecting to wake up to a balanced parliament and hopeful that a Lab-Lib pact will save us from 5 years of Tory cuts and survival of the fittest

Bexhill & Battle about to declare....

Con hold

 

[thejackal]

Supposed to be, but it's forecast to be pissing down so may not.

Fair enough. I've got no nephews etc this week so I'll be mostly drinking a few before the game, either in the RG or the Station.

Sleep tight... and best wishes to Sleeves! I'm just going for some more coffee and planning on pushing on through to the bitter end!

[patchamalbion]

Tories to take the lead in next 15 minutes......

Heading back to the fridge hoping for another pint of Westons from my never ending box.

Fingers crossed.

Me too mate. Only had a score on it but if it's 9/4 now it doesn't look good....

Bexhill & Battle about to declare....

4% swing. Not as much as I hoped

 

[Scotty Mac]

another conservative gain

 

[Titanic]
