UK Elections

Infuriated that I couldnt vote today, I just watched most of the proceedings since when the polls closed. Since it's now about 4am, I make that 6 hours. Watching politicians.


My head hurts Anyway, no surprise, Labour won, by what extent I have no idea, because I can't be bothered now that the results for my constituency have been annoucned...and I have to be up for school in 3 hours.

*yawn*

Night folks!

 

That will make anybody's head hurt.

I hear Arthur Negis has held Bristol.

That's not a result, that's just a bit of gossip.

 

From the US viewpoint, Blair winning is a good thing IMO

 

Considering the love/hate relationship between them I don't think Tony will hand over unless we see a repeat of the Poll Tax Riots, God forbid!

I agree with you about his leadership...it has been very much influenced by other leaders....not always a bad thing... but also why I think his re-election is good for the US> He and Bush have an excellent working platform, one I don't think that could have been developed had, say, the Liberals got in.

 

there seems to be a new saying here, now
"Just because you have more votes, doesn't mean you'll win."

So us, the US, doesn't really know whats good for them as a whole, anyway.


and riots are always fun. . .

 

I'm Lib Dem all the way - student fees ya see

 

The Labour Party always used to be left of centre, moreso than the Liberals, and now they seem right wing. Here in BC we have a Liberal government that leans way to the right. These were a bunch of defunct SoCreds who jumped on the bandwagon of a fledgling party. There's nothing in a name anymore. They doubled student fees here.

 

So THAT's why he and George Bush get along so well...
