Labour was once socialist, and now the Liberal Democrats are the further-left-than-labour party ...

We need to call these leftists "neo-Communists".

Old wine in a new bottle.

I like this that all the candidates have to stand there while the results are read. I move we adopt this for the USA.

So far, of the 80 most vulnerable Labour seats (as defined by smallest 2001 margin of victory), 29 have been decided. Labour has held 18 of them (62.1%).

But they have lost 5 seats not in the 80 most vulnerable, and have picked up none.

They keep up those rates, and they will lose 71 seats.

One of them I think was a Labour defection (the lone Independent elected - former Labour?)

The Blairs, as Keys (I think that's his name) speaks directly in front of them, about how maybe one day, when PM Blair will be able to grieve for the dead British soldiers he sent to die for nothing but a lie.........
