I'm going down the pub. There might be some actual news when I get back

cannot happen

[Alf W]

325's a majority. Only 649 seats up for grabs tonight.

Paxman to Mandelson... "If it goes as the exit polls say and Gordon refuses to leave, it's essentially a coup?"
Or on Channel4 "So Brown's invoking squatters' rights?"

13% swing to Torys in Washington & Sunderland W?!

[The Wikir Man]

**** me the swing in those first two seats is scary.

[The Wikir Man]

13% swing to Torys in Washington & Sunderland W?!

No. 11.6% swing.

[The Wikir Man]

Cons need 12.8% swing in Sunderland Central to take it - would be way down their hit list, so is a key one to watch...
