Well, over in sophisticated Southend we're a safe Tory seat. And I mean SAFE. Safe is in they don't even really bother canvasing that much because it's pretty much a given. Though I was very angry to see that my local constituency had given 2,000 votes to the BNP. I can't wait to get to Cardiff: there's four areas there, one Lib Dem, two Labour and one Tory, so my chances are good I'll be living in a non-Tory area (for the first time in my life).
Though, one thing I have noticed is a rumbling amongst the youth around here, at least at my school. A disquiet with Labour and Tory; the Lib Dems really seem to be the party of the young voter, so it will be exciting to follow politics over the next few years as the teenagers become old enough to vote. Maybe the two-party system will be stopped.

That said, I'm sorry you got such little sleep, and I hope Parliament's able to sort itself out. What even happens in a situation like that?

Kent is TOTALLY Conservative now. Funny thing was, all my local towns were Labour before this election, but are now Tory, eugh.
One Green Party MP, though. Yay!
