Con gain Eastleigh from LD
Con gain Cheltenham from LD

Clacton - Carswell re-elected for UKIP

LadyCentauria · Post by **LadyCentauria** » Fri 08 May, 2015 4:18 am

Con gain Eastleigh
and Cheltenham
both from LibDems

WelshIan · Post by **WelshIan** » Fri 08 May, 2015 4:18 am

Would the LibDems support a Labour government?

If Labour can get 250 (I know that could be a big if)
SNP 58
plus Plaid(3) and Green(1/2), that's 312/313. With 10 LDs that's 322/323 - 323 is enough for a majority.

Glad to be of service. Looks like black humour is my defence mechanism this morning.

Getting sick at the thought that Soton Itchen might be gone.

Appreciating the humour. Sorry about Soton Itchen.

Thurrock was do-able for Labour, so close.
Labour Polly Billington 16,156
Conservative Jackie Doyle-Price 16,692

Preseli Pembs stays with the Tories - Crabb rides on. Majority about the same. We had 2 new parties / candidates this time around - Greens and Chris Overton Independent. Their combined vote share was about the same as Crabb's eventual majority over Labour. So stalemate.

Yep, real squeaky pants moment – although they didn't seem to need any recounts, there. How close can it be in Bury North to be on the second?

Hobiejoe · Post by **Hobiejoe** » Fri 08 May, 2015 4:32 am

Hey look! At the Uxbridge result. It's the other Monster Raving Loony guy, Deputy Loon, I guess, in the white suit. Alan Hope, I think he's called. In charge since Sutch's passing.

WelshIan · Post by **WelshIan** » Fri 08 May, 2015 4:32 am

ITV - Let's hear what Boris has to say.
Me - Please, let's not.

Oh, Rebecca I am so very sorry, and you and Mr Riots worked so hard.

What a bummer, those votes would have helped kick out a very nasty piece of work.
