Slightly off topic, when is the next Question Period?

In the week the Bloc Quebecois get destroyed entirely, the SNP makes a gigantic breakthrough. Huh...

I thought it had already been noted that comparing contemporary political trends in two countries is often an awful idea.

U mad?

Y'all are cute with your anger. Love it when the left ding's the electorate for being too stupid.

Would it be too big a stretch to say Labour not pushing the Tories too hard + Labour crapout in Scotland equals at least a push on the night for the Conservatives?



Just jumping in here, obviously looks like the Tories hanging tough while Labour pummels the LibDems, is that the developing story?

Seems to be the main narrative...a side narrative is that the Tories and Labour are arguing over a shifting set of goal posts of Labour gains in order to say whether Labour succeeded tonight.

In other news, the world is round.

This is insanity.

Scott Brison re-elected. May be true, who knows.

Where are you getting these results from?  Are you on location?


Inks stop posting for a while, no, we can't see any real results. Yes, it's stupid. Wait

Can Americans get any coverage minus the live stream on cbc or cspan beggining at 930et?

Does anyone know if the election will be on any channel in the US?


I watched it live on CSPAN 3 last go round... been planning to do the same this time. Let's hope.

This RTE coverage is so so so crap. Boring as hell, replaying of weird promos... Why is this?

If I have to hear "whopping" again.... geez

Media is going to over play this into an own goal against him.

Just FYI, a week ago one of the nice old GOP ladies I know FB invited me to the group
"Sarah Palin/Michelle Bachmann 2010 GOP Dream Ticket" I haven't really slept since then...
15  General Politics / International General Discussion / Re: Nick Clegg really can't escape these annoying student folk on: February 11, 2011, 08:04:32 am
The students are highly selfish. They still get away with low fees and no fees for many.

I would say this, but it's really more the loathesome student governments and organizers. The school lackeys who would kill their fellow man for an office and small stipend to consider themselves powerful.

What does everyone expect the media shifting to no no, Miliband really is rubbish will have on the polls?

The Japanese are truly quite strange.

Don't think too one dimensionally, he doesn't have to be taken down in one challenge, if he's forced into a "back me or sack me" moment, and wins (which he would) it would open the door for David to come to the rescue.


Assuming that sort of scenario comes up... It just doesn't have to be one fell swoop to take him down.

zzzzZZZZZZzzzzz.....


Every moment that Labour isn't taking the lead in the polls or looking like the next gov't will add to the apprehension that they should have picked David.



That's true. This was just too close. It doesn't definitely answer the left-right question in Labour; it doesn't give Ed a clear mandate as he won on second and third preferences.

We've got to focus on 2015; it would be appreciated if briefings against Ed didn't start just yet.

Is David Miliband his younger brother's heir apparent?

Yes, there will be separate courts, Kings John and Richard will both be getting pledges of allegiance from the same people. I can already see Balls and D. Mili meeting this week to start the skeleton of the next cabal when and if E. Mili fails.

Nick Robinson is surely not the political editor at the BBC for much longer is he?

David is absolutely crushed sitting there.

Awkward times are here again.

Where is the best place for Yanks to watch?

If not live than just updates?

What time would coverage start for us?

I heard the V3 rocket and Yamato II were also canceled.
