If they get back to being real Labour, they won't get any votes, thats why they adopt more practical measures.

But it's back to the drawing board for the 3 who have resigned.

Oh shame poorGeorge Galloway! I hasn't realised he was an actual MP..

I find it strange that we have dozens of polls all the way through the boring election trail and they always get it wrong, it must cost millions for all these polls to happen, when will they realise that they don't work, when you ask someone who they will vote for they just lie or say what they want to hear.

All this rubbish about how close it was for weeks when it wasn't close at all.
Just wish they would stop all the polls as i think it can control the public voting, but it's a complete guess.

I didn't want Labour to get in as Ed was just saying Conservative policies, the same as Nick Clegg, they know that if they really said the truth they wouldn't get 1 seat in Parliament.

I know who i would trust with my savings, if i had any.

It seems that the public didn't want Ed and the SNP to run the country, thank heavens for that.

Nick and Ed are now finished, and Ed Ball has been kicked out.”

The problem with polls is that the great British public believes that who it votes for is its own business, and could end up being economical with the truth. I should imagine in Scotland they were all too afraid to say they wouldn't be voting for the SNP.
I didn't want the Edstone to get in, because of his unacceptable socialist beliefs. Does ANYONE know of a socialist government that ever worked?? Or wasn't propped up by secret police and with people tending to disappear?

I am absolutely thrilled about this.!

maybe some decorum will return to Prime Minister's Question Time without that thug heckling all the time.
Any ideas for a redundant slab of limestone?? I badly need a new doorstep! Mine broke..

message to Union bosses.- please sirs, can we have have our David (Miliband ) back?? It could all have been so different..

Now why would they want to do that? How foolish.

Another big mistake was having an American orchestrate the campaign. He obviously had no idea about how the mind of the average Brit works, with all those gimnmicks, hell no..

What on earth is that supposed to mean. One must assume you consider all Scots to be without any sort of backbone, & that we all blindly follow what we're instructed to do!

Afternoon all.

Do you mean because of the huge gap between what we thought was going to happen in the independence vote and what actually happened?

How on earth did you break your step, and where do you buy replacements?

I see David got a dig in and is probably rolling around in glee.

Having no idea seems to be a qualification in politics.

I think the Scots are stereotyped with having too much backbone rather than not enough.

What happened to the seconded football managers?

I'm a bit confused with the SNP votes in the election, they voted down a referendum when they had one, now they have voted in all the SNP that were standing so they can get what they want in the UK parliament, but they are not in government so how does that work. it seems like they want to control what happens in Scotland from being back bencher's in the UK parliament, how are they going to get anything unless the Conservatives give it to them?

Still, running the clubs...20 teams and only 5 are managed by English managers.

Hah!!
I KNEW I could lure you back... How NICE to see you !

I was going on all the reports from various sources about how the Scots who didn't support leaving the UK were intimidated, such as JK Rowling...

Anyway, i would just like you to know that you are lucky to have Nicola Sturgeon as your leader in this brave new Scottish world. If she were English i would probably vote for her too...

I seeSsr brilliantly changed my post to "English" from "British". I guess she speaks for Wales and Northern Ireland as well as Scotland...

I'm going to stick my neck out here re the Scottish referendum held recently that Alex Salmond was so sure he was going to win. Why was he so wrong?? As I recall the only people who wanted to leave were from Glasgow.

Promises were made before the referendum that weren’t kept after the No vote.

Threats were made that were groundless – no pound, you’ll have to apply to rejoin the EU.

We were let down and I reckon some of the No voters weren’t impressed.

The vote wasn’t against the English it was to keep the things we had got better than the English – education funding and care of the elderly etc.

In the debate the Scots were described as “wily” for getting a better deal. If Camoron had got a better deal for the UK in an EU negotiation would he be described as “wily”?

Absolutely!

Do you think maybe that changes all take time to put in place, and it wasn't possible to implement them with a General Election looming?
Were the education funding and care of the elderly under threat?

I hadn't heard that.

I lost the article but basically he commiserated with them all, praised all their hard work wished them well with re-grouping etc and tagged his brother on at the end as an afterthought.

I bet he is on the plane as we speak!

JK Rowling intimidated people? I didnt even know she was Scottish.

No. He would just be described as a d*ckhead, same as usual.

Nononooo she was intimidated. She is married to a Scottish doctor and I believe lives in Scotland, and she receved hate mail when she urged the people of Scotland not to dump the UK.

Well it looks like she will have a chance to say it all over again shortly.

I was expecting you to say it was one of the modern ones that take a couple of days to build and are mostly plasterboard.
