Bad night for Labour. Terrible night for Lib Dem.

Fooking catastrophe for the polling companies!

they have been hammered as we all knew they would however they will be in government with the tories again even with 10 MP's. No way the Tories will allow the SNP into government,

I'm not sure how the Lib Dem party works though. Don't the membership have to approve it? Could be wrong but I think that's right.

If Clegg is history they might not fancy it.

Clegg will be lucky to be an MP after tonight.

Agreed. I think he's relying on Tories voting tactically.

Lib Dems get 1% of the vote in the first declaration.

I always try to be moderate. Conservatives are not evil. Christmas will not be cancelled. The world is not over.

But then Michael Gove appears on TV and I remember how it felt in 1987 and 1992.

I voted tory at the last 2 elections that i have been able to vote in due to age. The first time was a protest vote against the iraq War and the war criminal bliar mostly and the second time because i believed they were the best party going forward for the country....however the 5 years under cameron i got proven very wrong on that.

Unlucky Bob Dylan. Third place in Sunderland West for the Conservatives.

Care to expand?

Projected vote share: Labour +4% Tories -4%.

It was an exit poll not the bloody results.

An exit poll of 20,000 people.

Right, absolutely.

But it's hard to forsee the Conservatives getting more votes than last time.

Anyone see Farage throwing a wobbly on ITV?

Nobody watches ITV do they?

Andrew Neil's tie was giving me a migraine.

First Tory seat of the night in Magic Roundabout Land.

Seems to be a lot of caution about the exit poll- if it is correct will there be another Tory government or will there be an anti-austerity government (with Ed Milliband leading)?

UKIP look to have gained Tory/ Lib dem votes in the 3 Sunderland seats- will this be reflected across the country (with UKIP being the second/ third place party in most counts [albeit not winning many])?

Putney has been held by Tories.

All 5 seats announced so far have been held - Where's the fireworks?????

Lib dems look to have been hammered in each.

Lib Dems were never going to do well in seats they didn't already hold.

Sadiq Khan (Lab) holds Tooting seat- 48 people had spoiled papers for voting for more than 1 candidate?

UKIP nowhere in London. Labour nowhere anywhere else in the South.

Yep. It'll be interesting to see if they still get slaughtered in seats they hold.

Neil Kinnock looking miserable and stunned on the Beeb - that brings back memories.

BBC and Herald predicting that Devonport will be won by Labour (Luke Pollard) and Moor View likely to be held by Labour.

What colour is Andrew Neil's hair?

Jaysus.

Polls are unreliable, it'll be a hell of a lot closer in PMV than the big polls suggest.

Swing away from Labour in Nuneaton.

Three figures for Lib Dems.

Majority for the Cons?

God help us.
