Election day, Yay

It seems to be a jolly start for a jolly new chapter in English politics. Labour was obliterated in almost every aspect there is. In the capital, London, the incumbent, Ken Livingstone, was defeated by a man widely known for being a stooge rather than anything else. There was a lot more devastation elsewhere. The Tories achieved more than they had been expecting in but a few constituencies. The conservative Party managed to grab 44% of overall vote, with Labour achieving only a meagre 24%, even losing out to the Liberal Democrats. Though this was more about Gordon Brown U-turns than Tory leadership, this still is a promising start of a brand new era.
