just done our voting.

the 2nd yellow slip was interesting with 2 votes, I just seen the two Morecambe independent party's(without reading glasses) and thought it was a no brainer compared to the major one's.

can't see anybody winning the main election with a majority, don't like anyone of them as just a party alone, it's a pity you can't pick & mix.

Mental how Ed Miliband on that live tv debate said to Nicola Sturgeon he would not join up with SNP, even if it meant the Tories staying in power.

He could hardly say anything else! If he had, Labour in Scotland would have been more extinct than the Tories in Scotland!

My prediction:

Tory minority government or in a mixed coalition, probably including Ulster Unionists. Lib Dems can't work with UU but may be desperate enough to give it a go. Eventually failing as Labour & SNP finally decide to get it together, possibly mopping up the odds & sods (Greens, P.C. etc).

If Clegg is dumped, then Lib Dems might consider getting in to bed with Labour. If he holds his seat, then Labour won't let him in.

Anyone else willing to stick their neck out with a prediction?

For once I think Miliband is putting the country First George and not his ego!!!!!!

I'm sure he said on a live interview if labour don't win, then he will quit after this.?

Morecambe epitomising "vote ukip, get Tory". What were you thinking Morecambe and Lunesdale?

David Morris has retained his Conservative seat for Morecambe.

The live result has just been on Radio Lancashire.

Grim result for anyone working in the public sector, currently in education or looking to get one, requiring housing, on low wages, needing benefit support, in poor health, work dependent on government funding, or business trades with Europe. Its going to be a tough five years for many of us I am afraid. :(
