Friendslist electioniser

This only works if people are prepared to tell a stranger's data-collection gizmo how they intend to vote at the election - but if you're happy enough to do that, it's fun to see how your friends are lining up.

The spread there so far is no particular surprise to me - but it could do with more data! Apparently, the graphs get updated periodically, so you can still change how mine looks by submitting your voting intentions.

FWIW, in 2006 I was pushing hard for a tactical voting campaign against the Labour Govt, then it was going to have to be for a hung PArlt, now it's a LD win (I joined later in 2006).

Tactical voting is an inevitable result of the electoral system, I really need to dig the article I wrote on that out of the archive.

The total number of Labour MPs compared to other party MPs doesn't help the Tories; it's only if the Tories get more seats themselves that they get in.

It's very unlikely they'll form a coalition Govt, and most will keep an eye on the vote share as well. Having more SNP MPs threatens a few things, but it won't help Tories directly.

It is, of course, possible that Cameron might form a coalition with the SNP. But...

A coalition Govt isn't a Conservative Govt. Which is a very important point to make. Not that I actually think it's likely; did like the way PAxman asked Cameron if he'd serve in a Clegg led Govt today, that was nice to see...
