lol my hair is almost identical to yours at this moment

SNP 14,000 majority in Kilmarnock and Loudon holy fuck. That's Cathy Jamieson out, and booted out too.

lib dem hold!

xxp my naturally horrified look will become more and more universal

wow Labour absolutely fucked in Kilmarnock, a 26% swing, that must be pretty much unprecedented?

kinda think that Labour & England deserve this

(re: SNP)

I can't find swings like that on first look. That's annihilation for scottish Labour.

Judging by the way things have been going, I wasn't expecting Lib Dem to hold that seat at all! Fucking hell, that swing to SNP in Kilmarnock, though!

(xps) The thing is, the SNP winning everything isn't news - it's an incredible turn around in less than a year, but we've known it was coming and factored it in. It's what's happening in England which is genuinely jaw-dropping.

A soaring SNP is one thing, a 29% swing and cleaning out the west of Scotland is definitely still in the jaw-dropping territory I think

Is what's happening in England so jawdropping? I was never going to vote Labour and I'm sure many others felt the same. Choosing Green over UKIP/Tory is almost arbitrary ;)

(xp) It is jaw-dropping, but we already knew it was going to happen. The polls said the SNP would win virtually everything. What's happening elsewhere is miles out of line with the polls.

aye - that's proper "any clown in a red rosette" country
xp

No, you're right. I got distracted by every single opinion poll / bookie / expert / commentator, whereas I should have based my expectations on you.

Douglas Alexander up now

Paisley now...

Douglas Alexander...

haha

fuck!

there there.

This is Twigg again. 20 year-old student. SNP doesn't have 58 candidates up to the job, I don't think

Sheeit!

Another clown in a red rosette bites the dust

:D a 20 year-old student!!! :D :D

20 years old, should be hilarious up there.

This is nuts.

Love this lassie.

Paisley's a barrel of laughs at the best of times

We are getting Trident dear.

Me and Andra Neil can tell you all about it

34% swing in Dunbartonshire!

haha they cut douglas alexander.

34% swing in Dunbartonshire
lol xp

andrew neil is from paisley? that makes him like five times the tory cunt he already was

I suspect there's even bigger headfucks to come!

douglas shd have just been 'it's over. good luck scotland'

Falkirk...

Right, so no more Labour MPs in Scotland

these scottish results - are these real or am i that drunk?

Yeah, it's looking like Labour annhilated in Scotland and Lib Dems almost completely annihilated everywhere.

shitty 14% swing in Ochil

To a former Tory

35%!!

Did I just hear right that the lib dems got 80 votes in castle point?

Canvey Island, rather.

haha what

(Ignore me I've just had a massive vodka)
