You truly are a mental midget.Originally posted by AtW View PostLabour have 258 seats, vs 306 of Cons - a swing of just 25 seats will give more MPs to Liebor over Cons, and they just need swing of 70 seats to get majority.
That's pretty damn near majority - after that tulip Liebor did to economy they should have had 0 seats in Parliament and 258 seats in the Tower!

ConLibs will be lucky to last a year.Originally posted by AtW View PostSo they kept near majority of seats, crackingly good result considering the tulip they did - now they buggered off and left tough cuts to be made by Cameron only to return to power after 5 years.
Good job Lord Mandelson, well done that chap.
