Latest exit polls show the Tories leading :'( :'(
Is is a crime to believe in something different?

I meant what I said at the time that I said it

Didn't think i would ever want to see a tory win until it came the result in Nazi Nigel's seat. Nasty prick still  stirring up hatred it wasn't us that voted tory .

So fear and greed won the day again then.

As Jack & Pol said - at least UKIP proved to be a wet fart (but check their % of the vote...............).

I guess we will now find out where the £12bn cuts are gonna come from. Time to get off the Island I think.

Genuinely didnt know who to vote yesterday, from a Labour supporter. Knew it would never be Tory but after that I didnt feel Labour were ready after so short a time. Still, Shiny face can tell us how great Great Britain is....well if youre already well off. I think we will hear the death knell of public services in the next 5 years

I know that everyone here is pissed off and disappointed, don't think that any of us wanted 5 more years of the tories
From a Scottish point of view Yes the snp done better than their wildest dreams some of the results were incredible. Will it make a great deal of difference now that Cameron has a majority government probably not, i know they thought that labour would win and need their support. On the plus side they will hopefully do a better than labour done for us in opposition. Locally i find amazing that labour has lost its seat, i didn't think I would ever see that in my lifetime especially with the massive majority snp won.

Straight on for the days ahead  !

Bit surprised after voting to stay in the Union that Scotland in effect voted for its own Government in effect. Its not that long ago that the SNP got a handful of seats. Dont thibk anyone expected it.

Got that a bit wrong, didn't I?  Thought the Tories might scrape in, but such a majority?

Absolute proof that the UK populace will fall for anything... the smear campaign against Labour, in the last couple of weeks, was shocking. The election was bought and paid for weeks ago.  Now, don't get me wrong, Labour lost the election when they put forward an utter ******* lemon like Milliband... even worse than Kinnock.

Why the hell can't Labour put forward a candidate that isn't some millionaire champagne socialist right out of public school who anyone with the slightest scrap of brain in their head believes has the working / lower middle classes best interests in mind?

Oh well, UK 'plebs', The X Factor will be back on TV soon... that's the IMPORTANT thing, eh?  VOTE!!!!  And good luck struggling to pay for private healthcare...   ::)

I truly believe that years from now, 07.05.2015 will be regarded as a very dark day in history...

Think everyone that voted yes and a few that voted no all voted snp . Plus the labour party in Scotland was in a mess only a few months ago their leader resigned saying that the party had been treated like a branch office by ed milliband and co. Agree with ray in the fact that labour got it badly wrong both in personal and policy.

I truly believe one of labours major failings for this was the persona of Milliband. Saw an old lady interviewed in the street for local news, she could no other reason for not voting Labour other than she didn't like him. The role of Prime minister, or President, charisma, standing and charm, how old they look, -- do they look and sound the part, all matter. Whatever you thought of Blair, in the 1990's, he had what it took to get elected after many years of Labour exile. The charm, the smile, the right kind of B/S

Agreed, Shush... but who the hell thought Cameron was a 'likeable' person?

The smuggest twot on the planet, just trying to conceal his sniggers as he carves up public services to line the pockets of his rich pals...

A more punchable face, I have rarely seen... yet the sheeple fall for it.

I agree Cameron is smug with Oxbridge written all over his face, but he is a good orator and gives the impression he believes what he says. Like I say, personality as a leader is a massive factor. It shouldn't be, what they are offering is all that should matter, but hey, that's show business  :D

Miliband is awful - he made Cameron look better than what he is. Clegg? No, merci. Balls to that.

The Tories have a point about the economy: Brown's 'boom and bust is over' not only became a pathetic joke, but one which leaves a sour enough taste in most people's mouths to ensure anyone fixing it could be re-elected.

The success of the Tories here just illustrates how difficult it is to trust opinion polls - and that's something most political pundits already know only too well...but...

This is the Labour Party's fault (and as a dyed-in-the-wool working class Herbert that's not an easy thing to say); if they hadn't been such an unelectable shower of disorganised, rudderless, hopeless, policy-less jibbers then they might have been a realistic prospect.  As it was they were a poor joke at best.

from the outside looking in

scottish referendum should've been held after the election and not before. things like that do not belong at the end of a government.

labour is falling apart everywhere. they have lost touch with the reality of life as working class people. and it is not just in the UK. Ireland's labour party are a disgrace acting like lapdogs for a right of centre party. unions are lost and people are suppressed by the police for protesting about world economics which sends a message that we will do this on a world stage so don't think we won't shut you down on local issues.
