What a load of old bollox. Sovereign will of 36.9% of us more like. Sheesh the Conservatives can be arrogant. You don't speak for most of us!

So according to that, you voted "going back in time"

Alternatively, read your own sig...

You hide behind a computer screen and call her a "stupid cow".

Don't think I need to add anything else.

Nice.

You always play the man, so here's your chance......to be the real thing.

The man in you, presumably, didn't notice a women being called 'a stupid cow'?

So it is the pollsters against whom they should be protesting in reality, since they gave false hope to those who wanted a different result from the actual one.

Bloody hell, Charlotte Church down to her last £3 million. I hope she can cope.

If these silly celebs really have a social conscience, they should use it in charitable good works, not in ranting about the outcome of a general election or in parading their political beliefs during a general election campaign!
