Looking more likely for a Tory majority.
John Humphreys sounds delighted. Not sure switching on Radio 4 was a good idea.

Was it the 'scared of the SNP in coalition ' or 'he's too wierd and left wing' that caused this in England?

Perhaps Osborne is quite the strategist after all and Cameron's view of politics can earn a First at Oxford. I find it somewhat troubling, under-handed plots and nasty schemes are not a right and proper way to govern a country.

Fear of the SNP. And for all those who think think this proves Ed should have talked to Sturgeon, that wouldn't have changed this outcome, probably intensified it.StephenDolan wrote:Was it the 'scared of the SNP in coalition ' or 'he's too wierd and left wing' that caused this in England?

Not from people I met, as the polls were closing, who told me they'd voted Con because the economy's doing so well and wages are increasing. They looked shocked when I told them what's really going on. Just wish I'd seen them before they'd voted – not that a bare handful would have made a difference in this constituency...StephenDolan wrote:Was it the 'scared of the SNP in coalition ' or 'he's too wierd and left wing' that caused this in England?
