Also, is it just me or is the Beeb's coverage a bit shambolic this year?

It's bizarre that the Scots, having voted against independance, should then elect the SNP by a landslide.

Weird times. By 2020 the Union could be broken up and we could be out of the EU.

It's almost as if the SNP is more than a single issue party and established a track record in Scottish parliament.

The swingometer is pretty dumb. So glad we don't have that **** here.

Watching PMQ's is the extent of me paying attention to UK politics over the years. But I know this.

Tories up in seats.
Labour down in seats.

The people have spoken. They want David Cameron to continue as PM.

The Scots are celebrating snp victories and saying its great we didn't want Cameron etc .. but isn't that just helping the Tories?

I'm not really understanding it

Does it make much difference to Tories if its SNP or labour. Looks like Tories have enough seats either way.
