The General Election Thread

[inbetween]

Have to feel sorry for Clegg, he did a great job as deputy.

You can't start complaining about the rules of the game after your team lost.

Cameron didn't just win this fair and square, he won it with a 6-1 thrashing and cries of change from the red side. The people wanted 5 years of a Tory Government and that's what they voted for.

He won with 36.8% of the electorate. How is that one in four?

66% turn out, of which Dave received 36%, so only one in four of people who were eligible to vote, voted for the Conservatives

For christ's sake, this has been discussed to death. We have a first past the post system, it's what the electorate want.
An even lower percentage voted for Labour, they fucking lost, get over it.

Yep, the tory scum won fair and square. It`s up to us workers, to stand up to the attacks on the NHS and other frontline services that the less fortunate people of our country need and rely on. The move to the right will be coming quickly. Immigrants, NHS, Disabled and mental heath sufferers and organised workers in Trade Unions, will all be targeted again. To the lib dems who supported this shower in the coalition, just fuck off and die.

A fair-minded and magnanimous post - well done!

As I said, I know how the system works, but it really brings home the apathy people have with voting when they know that their vote will not matter

Farage resigns!

The big issue for UKIP now is how many of those 4 million would vote UKIP again now that Farage, their only known face, has gone and a referendum on Europe will prob be held.

I would suspect and I am only guessing that there share of the vote will have collapsed by the next election

He's not gone, he's standing down as leader.

After the summer he's putting hs name forward as leader of the party. Essentially he's asking is party members "Do you still want me in charge? Here's your chance to have your say".

He's a typical two faced politician like those he says he opposes ...ironic really that Clegg has already properly resigned
and Miliband will in a few minutes.

Tory scum??

Fuck off and die??

Wonder how many of the people who voted Tory are workers? I would suggest a huge percentage.
