May 8, 201510 yr And when the greens and UKIP get more votes than SNP but less seats they can... That's a ridiculous comparison. The Greens and UKIP stood in 600-odd constituencies, the SNP in just 59. It is far more relevant to point to the fact that a party with roughly half the vote won almost all of the seats. Alternatively, a party that won a little over one third of the votes across the UK won roughly half the seats.
May 8, 201510 yr I drank 2 bottles of champagne during the night to celebrate the result yes a lot of Tory voters I know also drank lots of alcohol. I think that was before the vote though which prob explains the result... :lol:

Didn't go to bed until midday after Milliband resigned and was up since yday afternoon so was fairly tired. 4 hrs sleep hasn't made the Tory victory any less bitter!
