Found a pub this afternoon with Palm Speciale on tap. Hic.

Aye, we all did a Brown-style facepalm at that one.

Literally everyone I've spoke to who is voting for the Tories has given me an answer about immigrants and that's it. I don't think the majority of people are aware of what they're like. I've just about resigned myself to them winning now but have two reasons to be positive - King's opinion on how much shit is going to hit the fan and a whole new generation of selfish twats are going to be reminded what the Tories are. Yep, this. From a personal perspective, a small Tory majority with a vastly improved Lib Dem position might just be the best result in the long term, even if the next few years are ugly as hell.

I'm sure no one will care either way, but if you're after making a bit of money on Eurovision this year, you could do worse than keep an eye on this blog for a few tips as they emerge: http://sofabet.com/ I've already got various bets on the contest adding up to about £100, and I'm nothing if not a thoroughly part-time gambler, so should probably consider stopping now...

Question should be the other way round IYAM.

You shouldn't be so dismissive of those "wasted votes", they're what'll win you a bunch of Lab-Con marginals. Of course, as always, if everyone who says they'd vote for the Lib Dems if they didn't think it was a wasted vote actually voted for them...

Blurdy hell. I know he's only got himself to blame for squandering what he had, but still.

Independent were Lib Dem last time round, so I don't see why that would change now. Interestingly, the Guardian have come out for the Lib Dems too, albeit with a tactical voting caveat (and they give Labour a decent kicking along the way): http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/20...moment-has-come

Simples!

An interesting read, if you can get beyond the innuendo-tastic headline.

I was going to highlight individual :lol:s, but there are far too many.

That's how it works.

There's been a lot of talk about this being the first "social networking election", the year the power started to shift away from the newspapers (and particularly the tabloids), etc. etc. And you just know the printed press will get more and more militant in their approach over the next week. It'll be really interesting to see which way things shift next Thursday.

Thought Clegg had a much better second half. Polls will come out for Cameron and give the Tories a boost, it's just a question of whether it lasts until next Thursday.

That's all he's got left now. It's particularly pathetic when he responds to a point made by Clegg by attacking Cameron. Cameron's started this one well actually, despite his freakily shiny chin. Clegg was strong on income tax just now though.

Congratulations, it's an Asda frozen chicken!

We all know you'll jiust vote for the best looking one. I wouldn't mind, but I am, and she's a lass.

This country is a joke.

Not saying you're being paranoid, but I don't think he's trying to score out-of-towner points here, Leazes. Lewisham Deptford here, for what it's worth. Outside the big three, we've got a Green who thinks he has a chance but doesn't, plus a Socialist Alternative candidate (two of their five local councillors nationwide are in this constituency) and a Christian Peoples Alliance nutjob.

Good stuff!

Well, compared to Cameron he pretty much is actually. What would have happened if Cameron and Osbourne had let the banks collapse? Sorry, I should have clarified: the line needs to be that it's a bit rich positioning yourself as the great rescuer when you were complicit in creating the problem and exposing the country to the global crisis to a massive extent in the first place.
