maybe that's what their parties need a good shake up

out with the old in with the new :-D :-D

Not SNP though Joy .they are in our Borough Dumfries & Galloway pushed Labour out :-( as we travelled about farmers wanted labour .& conservatives .not SNP it will be interesting to talk to neighbours & friends up here after the results .aw well we will have to see .you probably need a rest today after your long night & Busy morning .off to the shops to get the gossip :-D :-D

The SNP- do worry me a little :-D :-D

Enjoy your shopping Barbra :-D

Eh? GH, we know it's you. Your style of "English" is unmistakable.

Bingo, by the way.

Feelings on UKIP?

Oops too late.

The questions I put above have been put up for review, no reasons why they should have been, plus the G. Election is over... so no point in doing that. Sad about Nigel F, Guinevere, but Labour are out... that's the main thing. Seems some got it wrong on here about the Labour Party, don't think it was me, do you ?

I don't like to say I told you so, but my post of 5th may on this thread predicted a small overall Conservative majority. Unfortunately, our sitting MP lost his seat to the awful Ms. Ryan, her of the £173,000.00 expenses claim. Did anyone see Neil Kinnock? He said, in so many words, that the Conservatives only got in because the electorate are too stupid to vote for Labour. And now, with the SNP dominating in Scotland, things will get very interesting indeed.

I didn't make any predictions about the Labour party, GH, but I did say that Nigel wouldn't get elected. I was right, wasn't I? And you were wrong.

To be fair Nigel is a man of his word and he resigned.

I respect a man who keeps his word.

Where are the hosts of UKIP MPs ? Thin on the ground.
Has brave Dave invited them to join the government benches? No.
What has happened to the UKIP demand for an in/out EU referendum now? Vanished like the melting snow.
What do we know now ? That around 10% of the country are idiots - you can work that out anytime you drive down the M6 guess the same people ( you know the ones who sidle up the emergency lane in jams) vote UKIP..

So other than representing the Tendring area of Essex ( not the most prosperous or dynamic part of the SE to say the least of it) what will UKIP do next? Where is the money coming from ?

Nigel seems to have the right idea, going south.

And Labour aren't out - they weren't in in the first place. That was the Tories. :-S

I was glad to see that Ed Balls lost his seat. He spent all night in denial regarding the exit polls. I bet there will be dissent in the Balls household now, as his wife kept her seat. LOL. Perhaps he could become a house-husband.

Before the election Dave Cameron's coalition government had a majority of 73. Through a curious act of political cannibalism the larger part of the coalition ate the other part.

Now Dave's majority is 12.

Terrific victory welcome to 1992 and all that.

Thank you Bob that's Better photo :-) well cabinet reshuffle .another 5years of Mr C. hope he looks after our country now .& keeps his promises ? Thanks for your comments :-D :-D ;-)

Guinevere, I said some good things about the UKIP, but never said they would form the next government... so I'm not wrong. I was mainly refering to the Labour Party with my posts on here, in the past... and I was right about them. Seems the people of this country agreed with me, well, many of them did.

bob talks a lot of sense, and spot on about Ed Balls.

Regarding UKIP votes, I think they were so concerned about letting Labour in through the back door... thought best to vote Conservatives, however, I bet a lot of them agree with the UKIP.

GH, you said Nigel would be an MP. So you were wrong.

You have banged on about UKIP constantly, don't try to rewrite history, people copy your threads because you delete when you're losing the argument and we all know the truth.

If people agreed with you there would be more than one UKIP MP.

Didn't you promise never to post here again? Several times.

UKIP might have only got 1 MP; but 12.6% of people that voted, voted for them. Compare that to the 4.7% that voted for the SNP and look at how many seats they got.

I don't agree with GH; but some people obviously do. :-(

I think there will be another Referendum .to try & separate Scotland from England .Nicola Sturgeon is like a Rottweiler .with a bone hope she has her own teeth .she will need false ones before she is finished chewing at the government ;-) :-D
