Dust settling as a new day dawns
Its dust or volcanic ash, but the structured words are starting to come through the murky haze of election night seismic activity.
Not much bounce in Gordo as he staggered through the scarcely-opened door of No 10 this morning - some public-spirited civil servant got his foot against it maybe?
So Cleggy has honoured his earlier promise: the most votes claim first go at the palace. The Lord High Mandie has signalled the death knell for Jonah, living up to his reputation to the bitter end as he brings the New Labour Project crashing to the deck.
What's wrong with the Ulster Unionists anyway, might just balance the books, shame there arent a few UKIP members to barter for influence - voters detered by the sight of M. Farage in an unseemly pickle on polling day.
My independents fared poorly: Johnnie Cook scored 151 in Witney, less than the Count Tolstoy and a(nother) Raving Loonie. And Bruce Hay, the UKIP candidate in Reading West stumbled badly without even getting airborne. Ah well.
Good for political betting, must be lots of new wagers to be drawn and markets to create. Go to it chaps:
www.smarkets.com had a busy night and lots of tweeting into the wee small hours; and the Sports Exchange promoted their Exchange betting allies, Matchbet at www.testpunt.ning.com.
