I'm so excited! The election results won't start flooding in, but Peter Snow will be there with some spectacular swingometers. I don't care who wins, it's nearly as thrilling as Eurovision.

They're saying only a 60-odd majority, which is where I was going to vote if I'd got round to it in that thread. Might clip the B-liar wings a bit.

I suppose I'll have to stay up till 4 in the morning to see if the SNP has performed. Wildest dreams is 6 seats, but nobody really knows due to the extensive boundary changes.

Even Peter Snow was crap this year; it's time he was pensioned off.

Elections just aren't the same any more. David Dimbleby seems to be suffering from senile dementia and Sir Robin Day is suffering from incurable death. Paxman just isn't the same.

Oh well, with luck, I'll have starved to death during the recession before they call the next election.

Happy New Labour. :(

How long until Ion and Kevin "Woo" Lowe show up claiming there was a conspiracy?
