Ken vs. Boris: It's So On

city and east

Graham Kemp (NF) 2,350 (1.28%)

Not to mention the heart-warming 2,350 who thought that the BNP were too touchy-feely and decided that the NF were the ones for them. (xpost)

also this:

Bexley and Bromley

Conservative hold

James Cleverly (C) 105,162 (52.60%, +12.17%)
Alex Heslop (Lab) 29,925 (14.97%, -0.67%)
Tom Papworth (LD) 21,240 (10.62%, -8.25%)
Paul Winnett (NF) 11,288 (5.65%)
Ann Garrett (Green) 9,261 (4.63%, -0.45%)
Mike Greenhough (UKIP) 8,021 (4.01%, -12.79%)
John Hemming-Clark (ISQMH) 6,684 (3.34%)
Miranda Suit (CPA) 4,408 (2.20%, +0.07%)
Steven Uncles (Eng Dem) 2,907 (1.45%)
David Davis (Left List) 1,050 (0.53%)
C maj 75,237 (37.63%)
6.42% swing Lab to C
Electorate 407,003; Turnout 199,946 (49.13%, +9.10%)

Constituencies 12, 13 and 14 will be announced together, with the results of the second preference. So the next annoucement should be the final result. No idea when this is.

Bexley and Bromley = Most horribly right-wing part of London? Is this where Stephen Lawrence was killed?

Ed, where is Southall in these contests? S4t1nd3r's uncle is the Left List LA candidate.

I'm guessing ealing and hillingdon

Salvinder Dhillon (Left List) 2,390 (1.38%)

Beaten by NF and UKIP. BOOOOO.

Announcement shortly.

Con 8 Lab 6 in assembly constituencies

1 gain from Con to Lab

Gavron came second in Cam/Brent. Who the hell voted for Tories in our manor?

londonelects suggests all the results are in but doesn't have THEE RESULT

Its been ages since I lost an election.

Reminds me of being 18 again.

I'm going to have to start voting twice again, aren't I?

14 of 14:

Two affairs: 1,043,761 (43%)
Five kids: 893,877 (37%)
One partner: 236,255 (10%)

Second preferences?

Graun has those as the 13 of 14 results

The Guardian's blogger is crap at copy n paste.

here we go

Stop cheering you Tory cunts.

over 1 million for Boris

BNP 69,710
UKIP 22,422

LL 16,796
Con 1,043,761
Lab 893,877
IND 5,389
ED 10,695
LD 236,685

First pref, obv

I'd hope Berry could get 100k+ London-wide but even if every single one of those voters gave their 2nd choice to Ken, he can't do it. Especially as it doesn't seem Ken will getting any joy from Paddick supporters (an extra 10k at best if the polls are way out).

Even DJ Martian can't say something funny to lighten the mood :(

After second prefs:
Johnson: 1,168,738
Livingstone: 1,028,966

Johnson wins.

cuntybollocks

2 go through

combined with 2nd pref votes

Con 1,168, 738
Lab 1,028, 966

:-(

welcome to laughing stock city, Londoners

Boris: thanks the 'knocker-uppers'.

Boris: disputes multi-culturalism.

Does he think he has won an oscar?

So basically it's STARTING ALREADY.

YouGov has it, at final polling, as Johnson 53 Livingstone 47. Which, sadly, sounds about right.

Boris: I will now simply repeat back a list of Ken's policies and then not act on them over the next four years.

Where there is discord, may we bring harmony...

Brian Paddick now making his speech, in the manner of a middle-manager sheepishly explaining he might have to lay some staff off.
