The Euro Election Day Megathread

[RyRy]

Of course, aren't only 1/3 up each year for the locals?

Will be interesting to see how well they do at the general, I can't see anything other than a labour win though unless something drastic happens within the next 12 months.

I honestly don't know myself, I assumed they were all done around the same time during the general election haha.

I predict a hung government & I can see UKIP going with Labour to spite Conservatives. I've heard bugger all about Labour badmouthing UKIP and I think that might be why.

Aren't the conservatives offering a referendum on the EU? I haven't heard anything about labour offering one so I would've thought if that were the case UKIP would go with the conservatives.

With the locals, the councillors sit for 4 years, so every year 1/3 of them are up for grabs, one year there wont be any elections, this is so the new councillors can learn off the older ones, whereas if they all went up at once then if different councillors were elected nobody would know what they were doing.

They have yeah, but they had Grant Shapps on BBC just earlier talking about that and it seems a bit... iffy. They're asking whether he'd vote to get out and it's more "nah we'll try get a deal first"... It's that "but" that people don't like.

Alright I'm a derp yeah I thought it was all at once ;_;

South West is a shock for Lib Dems to lose their seat though, Lib Dems have been so strong down here for so long. That's a massive loss.

[Inseriousity.]

I am way too gleeful watching lib dems lose their seats. will clegg look back on 2010 as the day he doomed the party?
