Oh HONEY!!! I'm so sorry, but at least it looks like they don't have the clear majority. I really hate to say it, but it was almost inevitable (from this side of the pond) that something like this would happen.
Not much to say, but "that's politics." I've lived through the hellishness of losing elections to Republicans including the horrors of 1988 and 2000. It's never pretty, but at least in your case, it's hardly like the Tories can claim to have some great Mandate a la Reagan or Thatcher.
I know, I know :( I knew this was going to happen, but that doesn't make the reality of it any less depressing. I suppose the best we can hope for is for Labour and Lib Dem to band together and force through the electoral reform they've been advocating in time for the next election (which is likely to be fairly soon, given the way parliament's balanced)

...also I'm a little drunk, so I hope that made sense.

We've got a National (i.e. conservative) government. :-( Which probably explains why I still can't get work.
