    Sod this, I'm going to bed. I don't think it will be a hung parliament from what I've seen so far.

    When I get up I think it'll be a Tory majority with 328 seats, FTSE dipping under 5000 and, erm, well that's it.

    Night all.

    In Sheffield apparently and it was a close thing. I do have some sympathy. There were people who were in line at 9.10pm and still didn't get to vote. I wouldn't have left voting until the last minute but would still have thought that if I got to the polling station before say 9.30 there wouldn't be a problem as it's never taken longer than five minutes in the past.
    Me too...I am sure I have rushed in last minute before with afew mins to spare....but was empty with very tired poll staff.

    I am getting the hang of 'Swing' now...never really understood it before.

    Seemed quite a high vote for BNP @nearly 2000 in the last one.....which is worrying.

    Did people actually get turned away? I got mine in first thing this am - I'm usually in the last tranche.

    It'll be really interesting if there are legal challenges. Did I hear that some people in Hackney were staging a sit-in?

    I still think Tories less than 300 - I think the big 'swing' being seen in the early safe seats is the bigot comment keeping voters at home in safe labour seats
    I think....
