Miliband gets canned if Labour doesn't form government.

Sunderland is a relatively strong area for UKIP - this confirms they're going to do fairly well in votes.

Please please PLEASE let the exit poll have had a shy UKIP effect.

Fair enough. That's how I feel about Cameron. (Partly because there's not enough 'weird' about him; he seems like he's come from the planet Camazotz or something.)

He's not an MP so that's not possible.

The Labour guy on ITV confirmed he thinks Labour is furious at the SNP, and the situation is basically intolerable, causing Labour to lose a bunch of seats in England they otherwise would have had, being squeezed by the "twin nationalisms."

Why? Five years from now you may be living in an independent Scotland. Alternatively you may be living in a Scotland where the Tories are doing a Mariano Rajoy on you.

We may need to bring back the Black and Tans.

EDIT: For Scotland, obviously, not Ireland...

He certainly is the stereotypical Britocrat, but hardly comes across as stuffy, because his personal popularity is considerably ahead of his party's.

I actually really like David Cameron as a person, but then I think Madeleine and I have noticed before that we have opposite opinions on this sort of thing.
