If only that was the case nationally!

Odds on a Labour minority shortening on Paddy Power frown
Don't worry once all the decent hard working people in the Uk get home tonight they will vote and conservative will come out on top. At the moment only the welfare reliant sponging Labour supporters have voted in the hope they can protect their benefits.

This thread is illegal since it is a criminal offence to publish an exit poll before the polls have closed. (I suspect that the authorities will be more concerned about activities in Bradford than Pistonheads though).

Who is a well built company Director supposed to vote for anyway? The Tories are the obvious choice but most businessmen would prefer to remain in Europe and not keen on the uncertainty that a referendum would lead to.

Referendum uncertainty > Miliband uncertainty.

Melman, it's a valid point, but posting four times is coming across as a bit "tower hamlets"

A quick glance around various polls would suggest lab/con are neck and neck, UKIP have usurped LibDem as protest vote of choice and Green have gained more than SNP (which is the bit that surprised me)

Hope the Cons get there, markets are already down just based on labour catching in the polls

Yes here's hoping but it still looks too close to call.

Not even sure it's valid!! Some of the gainfully employed exercised their democratic right to vote before work! smile

I will be very interested to see what the Scottish turnout is, seeing as it was incredibly high for the referendum.

Sadly I think SNP are going to clear up where I am.
Maybe it's just because I and my friends are four/five years older, but it does feel like there's a lot more social media activity and personal chat about this election than the last ones.

I was round at a mate's the other night and he asked me who I was voting for - just about fell off my seat as we only ever talk football or golf hehe

The 1992 exit poll - real thing not internet - suggested a hung parliament, after the closing days of the campaign had put Labour narrowly in the lead.

In the end when votes were cast and counted, Major got 43% of the vote and Labour 35%, giving a clear Conservative majority. Fingers crossed.

Been swithering between who I would vote for.

Labour to keep the SNP out?

In the end I voted Tory. I currently have a Labour MP and wouldn't have a problem for him personally, but the thought of contributing to Milliband and a Labour government meant I chose Mr Tory.
We may share the same constituency, but I decided to grit my teeth and go tactical.

Risky choice though - could end horribly biggrin

Voted Conservative, would have considered UKIP if I lived in an area where I thought they would have kept Labour out. Would be happy with another Lib Dem coalition so long as they don't try and cancel the EU referendum. UKIP coalition would be fun, basically anything that keeps the militant left away ie Miliband and Sturgeon.
