Some of these politiciansā€™ human suits seem to be slipping off in the wee small hours.

Well, I ainā€™t staying up to see Farage lose, much as Iā€™d like to. Sounds like 9am now?

Dumfriesshire, Clydesdale & Tweeddale has been held by the Conservatives, but only by 800 votes.

What about that Reckless tosser?

Oh yes, whatā€™s happening to Ed Balls?

Quitter!

I want to see a frown so deep you could hide two pound coins in it and Iā€™m not sleeping until I sees it!

Why did a majority of the Labour constituencies report first? CONSPIRACY!

Go Michelle!

Am I the only one left in here?

If Labour hadnā€™t campaigned agaist the referendum and it passed, eventually all those Scotish Labour seats would have gone byebye, and the Tories would be crowing about permanent majorities in Westminster.

Balls, Craven, Dews and Hemmingway.

What a fucking constituency!

Now Charles Kennedy loses his seat

Hmmm, gotta disagree there, there are Labour ā€˜lifersā€™ going over to the SNP in a lifetime they swore they wouldnā€™t.

Holy Crap! Kennedy lost his seatā€¦

Biting fingernails!

Itā€™s like North Korea, no one can stop clapping first!

Millimetre carries the vote


Is it my imagination or is the turnout in Scotland a lot bigger than England?

Labour can and has won in England. Blair didnā€™t need Scotland.

Itā€™s not about campaigning for No, it was campaigning right alongside the Tories.
