Facts are there is a better economy than that inherited does it mean it's down to the government of the time or just natural cycling of the economy?

Modern politics is no longer about values held but of appeasing the multitudes wherever they come from.
totally agree, any improvement in the economy is down to hard working people running small businesses like me! 5 more people employed despite the financial crisis. The only reason there was a crash was because of the banks, rest of the economy would quite happily have carried on without them if the governement had poured money into a state bank instead of bailing out the greedy barstewards with our money.

 
Cant say I trust any MP/party to fulfill any of their promises to be honest & I might have been tempted by UKIP until the ******* clown last night with his "I will personally shoot him" comment (******* like that who needs them, not Farage that's for sure) ......................................I have how ever hopefully voted in a way that will  hopefully stop the Nicky Sturgeon getting Walace milliband as her ***** boy.

Libs are getting a hammering then..............................

Same right back at you mate. We can vote for whoever we dam well please. We are part of the UNITED kingdom you know that thing that we all want to keep united. If anyone is to blame it is the English for voting for more of the same lol. Even if the whole of Scotland voted Labour it would have made no difference. 

Obviously Labour will blame everyone other than themselves for last night - them nasty SNP voters chucking them all on the dole ffs....lol

You got me, just looking for a scape goat really. With a 66% turnout it looks like most of Scotland voted as they have something to vote for. down here we have nothing much so nobody bothered.

:(

 
the whole SNP 'terror' was a crock anyway, it like Scotland hasn't been involved in English politics for several hundred years anyway, never mind the preceding 1000s of years as 'friendly neighbours'. No forgetting the millions of ex-pat Scots living in England who of course never vote on 'English' issues.

5 million votes to minority parties and 6 MPs - that's the biggest scandal of the whole event.

The tories with a full mandate to slash and burn, scary, very scary -  I'm off to the docs to get my long standing knackered shoulder sorted out whilst the NHS still has some money. I certainly won't be taking on staff or apprentices for a few years. Time to batten down the hatches, there's a storm coming!

 
Well its been a good day as far as I'm concerned.

The Ed's gone, great, and all others resigning, say's it all really.

Do any of you think the labour party would make the NHS any better, seriousely the NHS is great but no matter how much money is put into it, it wall want a lot more, its a bottomless pit, and if labour had got in and poured more in than they could afford then we would be back to the same cycle, labour mess it up over 4 years then conervatives come in and sort it out.

Hopefully Paul O'Grady and both Brands will now leave the country as promised if the Tories stayed.

 
Conservatives have sorted out **** all, hard working people have sorted out the economy not them, and certainly not the bleeding wealthy bankers. Look at things another way, the financial industry likes the £ to be strong so they can leverage more against their papaer assests, that's great for them but destroys the manufacturing industry and any other export industry which employs a lot more people than the financiers do. Notice how manufacturing bounced back when the £ fell significantly a few years ago making exports far easier to sell abroad and earning money for the UK.

Not that I'm saying Labour have a perfect record, they too ignored industry for 10 years on the grounds that lots of easy money kept flowing in from what we now know to be a corrupt financial sector. Remember how the brave new world of 'services' were the financial saviour of the UK? So they kept the £ strong and spent the taxes, then low and behold the 'light touch' regulation they inherited from the Tories and stuck with turns out to be as much use as a chocholate fire guard and the 'services' collapsed, bankrupting the economy, and most of the world. The only good thing Osbourne did was back off from the slashing public sector finances after about a year when it became very clear it would do more harm than good - as was pointed out by the IFS, who went right up in my estimation as a result. George certainly didn't work it out for himself the public school p******. As it happens the great Tory economic policies have resulted in climbing debt mountain and a lot of pain for ordinary people, and a lot of money wasted on 're-stucturing', you know chaging names of departments - (means you have to re-do all the signs, all the stationary, move all the desks waste **** loads of time which cost £millions to achieve sod all useful), altering the way money is paid to the NHS etc etc. Probably enough money wasted on non-productive nonsense to have actually put a hole in the debt.

Will be interesting if we get the stupid EU vote - IN or OUT when what people actually want is IN but without the political tie up to a federal Europe.

 
I quite enjoyed the channel 4 coverage - I stayed up until about 3am.

I'm pleased with the election results. I'm not a huge fan of any of the politicians, but I think we are in the safest set of hands.

 
best politician, currently, is Nicola Sturgeon, I might not agree with her, but she has successfully argued a well reasoned point of view. Quite lke Boris as well, he may be a aTory but he has the strength of his convictions, where as Cameroon will promise anything to anyone to get elected - slippery. The fact they imported an Ozzy to run the campaign tells you something - money buys elections.
