england election results. everyone lost.

so we have a hung parliment. labour lost power. conservatives didnt win big enough majority and lib dems didnt win any seats. hundreds of last minute voters where turned away from the polls and didnt get to vote. so in the end everyone lost. oh well, lol.

It is a British election not Just england. Wales Scotland and N.Ireland too y'know

I'm not too suprised with the outcome, this was pretty much what was expected to happen. Now i know pundits can, have and will be again way off the mark with their predictions but they seem to have nailed it this year.

As for people being turned away it seems in some cases they were turning up to the polling stations way to late, or walking away earlier in the day because of the queues and and then coming back too late. If your vote meant that much to you then you should've made more of an effort earlier in the day.

there will always be exceptions though not everyone works nine to five but there are ways and means, postal voting would save you going to a polling station.

I think Jesse Joyce nailed it on a previous show when he commented on our parliament. These privately educated douchebags just bicker with each other all day, it is a wonder we have any laws at all to be honest. Not that anyone gets punished for the ones that they do break.

Agreed. Minority governments mean that the government can't actually do anything to fuck things up.
