    For our friends overseas, here's a pic of our possible next Prime Minister and Monster Raving Loony candidate Howling "Laud" Hope who stood against him.
    Mr. Hope got 253 votes but doesn't seem too upset.
    Can you guess which one he is?

    ok R.H.D.
    I don't think Frank Field is very big but I wouldn't call him Dwarf to his face, he looks like he'd bite your leg.

    that's correct, now we have to wait and see what the Lib Dems decide though it looks like they will choose the Conservatives

    Yes noob. Quite possible -- not definite - that UK voters will have to go to the polls again within a year.

    basically yes.

    as we have more than two parties in the UK the largest party has to have enough votes to have more than the total of all other parties in numbers it's 326 the biggest party had only just over 300 so they will have to co-operate with others to pass any laws.

    in a way it means that more extreme policies do not get passed, which is not actually a bad thing

    It also means that the party who came second are still the government at the moment.
    It depends on who the party who came third (very, very third) support as to who forms a new government.
    Personally I hope they go with the party who came second because that means they will bring in Proportional Representation.
    That would mean an end to the "first past the post" system, we would get away from this, basically, two party state and we won't have this silly situation, where a minority party become the kingmakers, again.
    Whatever happens now I think that British politics is about to change dramatically and I agree that that's no bad thing.
    I stayed up all night watching this and then worked all day. It was well worth it. Probably the most interesting political event in my lifetime but I'm knackered now.

    Thanks for the info, everyone....very interesting!
    Very interesting indeed,
    Most of my knowledge I mean awareness of this has come from The Daily Show with Jon Stewart
