			Did anyone watch it last night 
 
 I for one didn't - but I'm sure we'll be hearing about it for a long time to come.

I was watching Sherlock Holmes on DVD Polly, totally oblivious to what was on TV 
 
 I hate that type of programme in any case regardless of who's in it. It's the kind of programme which created media stooges like Tony Blair, David Cameron and Barack Obama.
It's only a question of time before Prime Ministers and Presidents are selected from reality show contestants.

			I watched a little of it.  Hasn't made any difference to how I will or will not vote. Very strange that the audience were not allowed to applaud, cheer or boo.

			So in parliamentary terms Coventry remains Labour.
The only positives I can see from this election are the results from East Belfast and Brighton Pavilion.
Unless of course a hung parliament means they will all be hanged?

			There was no campaigning by any party around here, it was assumed by all of them that Labour would win. But for the leaflets delivered free by the post office, we would not have known an election was taking place.

I must say our local Conservatives were out in force.  As for the others, didn't even know who they were.
I'm happy to report that Kent is now a sea of blue
