I have always been a Labour supporter.  It's in my DNA. BUT, in a strange way I am glad the Tories have got back in this time and hopefully with a clear majority because:

1. There will not be another coalition government with the idiots who call themselves the Lib Dems;
2. The Conservatives are a lot more skeptical than most when it comes to the various policies connected with climate change and;
3. There is likely to be a referendum on the UK's membership of the EU.

There, I've said it.  Just waiting for a bolt of lightning to strike me now!

4. It doesn't give the minority SNP disproportionate power in Westminster

Still a bad day for the most vulnerable however.

 BallsUp got binned so who's tipped to replace him? Yes his wife Yvette Cooper

She's another of the "new labour, straight out of Oxford into a political adviser job, got caught fiddling her expenses, never held a proper job in her life." brigade.

FFS, what has happened to the Labour party.....Me grandad will be turning in his grave muchin his old cloth cap.

If, as it looks likely Milliband resigns he should knuckle down and work hard in his neglected constituency now. It's well known in Doncaster this is the case.

Well that's the UK election out of the way. Now we can focus on the one in Turkey next month.
