The shy Tory factor was even at play in the 1992 exit poll.
The DUP are far too toxic lads, the Tories would only use them as a desperation last resort.
It is wonderful to see these bitter labour losers being interviewed.
Lib Dems won’t want in if they’re only on 10 or so.
FiveThirtyEight on the exit poll:
This year, there are a lot of potential changes in voting patterns that could throw off the exit poll. There are arguably five major parties now (instead of three), and Scotland is being contested for the first time in ages. To try to adjust, 10 more constituencies and polling stations will be polled. That may help, though we don’t have past election data for these polling stations to extrapolate the swing from. (Election day data isn’t released at the polling station level. In most cases, previous exit poll data is available and used to compare with this year’s exit polls.)
John Curtice, president of the British Polling Council and aFiveThirtyEight contributor[/URL], helped design the exit poll. He [URL=‘http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-04-30/u-k-election-exit-pollster-says-his-poll-may-be-vague-or-wrong’]has saidto “prepare for disappointment.” In other words, we might be heading back to the 1974 to 1997 era of major exit poll errors.

Why? The ten who survived must be fucking bullet proof. They’ll talk themselves into thinking that they would have a better chance of regaining the seats if they are in power, plus the salaries and perks aren’t too shabby!
Not any more. DUP could have a bigger representation in the House than the Lib Dems before the night is out.
The DUP don’t like it up em.
BBC News 24 has the main coverage with Dimbleby.

UKIP second in Sunderland, how Farage must hate the ridiculous first past the post system.
Lib Dems will want to be part of govt.
DUP will support minority Tory govt.
David Cameron must decide what his preference is.
The DUP are totally unpalatable to the majority of the British people, they would be a fucking disaster for the tories.
If these exit poll data is confirmed it will be a great night for enterprise and FREEDOM.
Kirsty Wark got old looking. Emily Maitlis holding her own.
Sunderland continue to wipe Newcastle’s eye. Chris Mullin’s heiress, the first deputy elected.
Ed Balls is in trouble apparently
Result of that Sunderland seat would suggest that UKIP voters aren’t telling the pollsters what way they voted. A bit like SF voters of old.
