Armchair Bob Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Is it, they look equal to me. Look at the sides of the map. They aren't square. The picture is taken from above the bottom end of the map, causing the further away parts to recede due to perspective effects. I can't believe I am arguing over this.

scoobydoo Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Unbelievable. Some of the swings were incredible. How the hell the SNP can keep maintain I don't know. Hopefully just for 5 years then it'll be all over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thplinth Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Just watching a slightly pished Cameron revelling in his victory speech at his party HQ. I wonder how many No voters in Scotland were watching in horror. Even when Scotland votes 95% for one single party we are still irrelevant versus the sheer population size of England. We always have been irrelevant in the 'UK equation' but this particular result throws it into very sharp relief indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewelk Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 (edited) Labour got that one seat through a smear campaign and Tory tactical voting. It was probably better for labour to get 0 than to get that 1 dirty seat that sums up exactly why they were booted ou in the first place.

We are however still ruled in our country by a political entity who is the third largest party with only 14% of the vote.Not even the most hardened extremist can say that that is in any form a democracy.But our voices are getting louder in the heart of their government, and this can only lead us to the natural progression of independence .

Eisegerwind Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Jim Murphy still whining on about the SNP allowing the Conservatives in. It's a lie the numbers don't add up, Labour failing to win seats in England let the Conservatives in. Twat! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
