Hi there

 

I've always thought Brown was utterly appalling. However he has gone up in my estimation today. Packing seems to suit him. Mandy was far less overbearing than usual, as well. He never does his packing for long, though, that one.....

 

Cheers

I wouldn't want to call what's gonna happen over the next couple of days. Gord and Nick?, Davey boy and Nick? Either way, despite the Lib Dems poor result, Nick Clegg is in a pretty powerful position now.

 

I'd like to see a Lab/Lib Dem coalition with Vince Cable in the Treasury. I can't stand George Osborne.

 

Did anyone see "Have I got election news for you" earlier tonight? It was hilarious! :biglaugh:

This would also be my preferred outcome. I'd like to see David Miliband as future PM.

He's not a bad bloke I don't think. He used to be the Minister for the Third Sector and was highly regarded amongst his department.

 

So long as Osborne isn't involved. Ugh! Smarm! :laugh:

I don't think that coalition has a majority?

 

Osborne - I agree - I have little confidence in him. But hey, we had Brown, then Darling.

According to the news it appears it will be a Cons/LibDem coalition which of all the outcomes i find the most kiss arsey depressing.

I don't pretend to know anything about politics. If the Conservatives have the majority vote then they should win but our system doesn't quite work like that does it?

What i don't understand is that the Labour and LibDems manifesto's seem more in tune with one another, so it seems a bit like jumping ship to me. All very rudimentary on my behalf.

I agree that that it is strong possibility. By then the electorate may be a little more focussed on what the result should be.

I can hold my hands up to wavering between tactical voting and voting for the party I like best. I went for voting from the heart (okay, pass the bucket I'm sorry!), but now know this was a stupid thing to do. Have learned my lesson!

The only sensible outcome seems to be Con/LibDem, the voting public have made it clear they don't want Labour or at least Brown in charge. The Conservatives usually seem to have a much firmer hand on the purse strings.

I don't see any obvious reason it wont work and the money market doesn't seem overly bothered at this point, at least from the perspective of the Aussie $ which has remained at almost exactly the same level as pre election.
