Result #1

Sunderland South result in - Anthony King, doing the analysis on the BBC, reckons that if this result had gone exactly according to a uniform swing from the exit poll, Chris Mullin would have got 19,500 votes - he got less than 18,000. But really, one can tell bugger all from this result as it was one of the least marginal seats in the country. I'm a bit peeved that the Raving Loony candidate (that's the guys being honest and calling themselves Loonies, not the candidates for the other parties who are nuts but won't admit it) only got 149 votes. He had a nice outfit and was conducting himself with considerable elan. More when we have something else to talk about. Currently into the lemon & ginger ale - alcoholic washing up liquid, but very nice with it!
