I hadn't a clue who was going to win this one, but thought Labour might just edge in. I thought the Lib Dems might have got a hammering with the bad press they've had over the last few days. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-21625726 |

From today's press, Camoron might have a few problems coming DAILY MAIL (so it must be true) |

Eastleigh aside though, what do we feel about the massive increase in postal votes? IIRC if you wanted a postal vote you used to have to have a damned good reason and jump through plenty of hoops. This no longer appears to be the case.... |

I am of two minds over them. I have used it now and again as I am a shift worker and it isn't unknown to be working when the vote is happening so postal is useful, however, I have misgivings in a way because your vote must be more secure if you deliver it in person. |

I was hoping that UKIP would win. The others needed a good fright. They are so complacent it's unbelievable. Even now Cameron thinks it's 'just a 'blip' After this, Ukip will increase it's attempts based upon this glory and I would not be surprised if this is the way we go now. We are all so tired of the other parties excuses-blaming each other for the rot which has set in over the past 20 years or so.. |
