LIVE election and results blog

What a great night of live election blogging we had last night. Loads of people on, up to the minute results and analysis, lots of laughs and the odd bit of verbal abuse. Great fun! Thanks to all who spent the night with us and made the General Election tolerable. :-)

Dr Andrew Emerson is confident of a strong performance in tonight’s General Election count.
“We hope to beat the Greens and UKIP, and get our deposit back with at least five per cent of the vote.”

The New Statesman website reports the BNP lost their target seat of Stoke Central. Nick Griffin's sacrificial lamb Simon Darby attracted 2,502 votes, scoring 7.7% - a good result compared the approx 3% the BNP have been averaging elsewhere, but a bad result by any normal standards, especially seeing how the BNP were gobbing-off about winning this seat outright as it's in their "strongest" area.

BNP did not have a visible profile for this campaign as far as local media is concerned so this result should ring a few alarm bells locally.
Not in a position to comment about their local campaign.

Surely the BNP cannot be increasing it's share of the vote simply by appearing on more ballot boxes?

The BBC love to hype up the BNP so they can give them more and mroe airtime in a self-fulfilling prophecy.

I know the figures will move slightly as the last results come in, but for the BBC to state "increased its share of the overall vote by 1.83%" is just plain wrong..... their total vote is 1.9%.

By fielding a shed load more candidates they are bound to pick up some votes (mostly in places where they also lost their deposit).

And cyclops is claiming that it was the high turnout that did for him FFS

Oh dear. Even the BNP's wizzy new national organiser managed to lose his deposit.

STOKE CITY COUNCIL

Seven results out - Labour 6 Lib Dem 1

BNP only contested one of these seven - Bentilee; came 2nd [I think this was a BNP defence]

Also of interest: in Longton North - once 2 seats held by BNP, now no BNP canmdidate. Mark Leat, ex-BNP now EFP, came 5th out of 6 with 10.3%

It seems the BNP scummers have retained their Thurrock and Nuneaton council seats.

BNP 5th out of 6 10.3%

I now have percentage for Bentilee - BNP 20.5%

Until last night I'd never considered UKIP in quite the same way as the BNP, but having met a vile little UKIP agent who spent most of the count chatting enthusiastically with the BNP I might review that opinion ...

Which is by way of mentioning that in Newcastle under Lyme (next door to Stoke), which is something of a UKIP hotbed, they failed to take any seats.

Good.

@JohnP "The BNP have been totally wiped out in Barking and Dagenham." - Yey! I saw that and I think the neighbours think I've won the pools ;-)

So I wonder what the excuse will be, Griffin blamed his poor perforamce on the 'high turnout'.
