Probably my last chance to relevantly post this one.
It is utterly ludicrous that they are sat there on the BBC talking about 3 party coalitions Labour may need to command a majority (based on the exit polls) or the Tories getting a deal with some of the 23 seats held by other parties (or the Lib Dems, which seems idealogically complex to say the least).
You have 2 massive parties there expecting around 90% of the popular vote between them. Those 2 parties are probably the two most idealogically aligned parties in the race. I can understand that whilst they both wanted to rule on their own they might not have wanted to let the public know there was an easy solution, but I am absolutely praying that tomorrow, if it all comes out like the polls suggest, one of them takes their head out of their own behind, and they stop acting like silly little children and agree to share.
I would also like a Unicorn farm, and accept that it is statistically more likely that genetic engineering can make this happen than that the politicians in question would take such a common sense approach to the running of the country.
