I seem to recall that NHS dentists disappeared under Labour. So much for looking after 'ordinary people' in 13 years of wasted government.

Why can't we have a cabinet made up of all parties. A true coalition. Everyone will then hopefully be represented and then policies for the good of the country can be made and acted on.

I dread David Cameron being PM. He will never understand the concerns of us ordinary people because he has never walked a mile in our shoes. His parents never have to worry about heat or eat. He never has to worry about waiting on an NHS waiting list for treatment or trying to find one of that almost extinct professional, the NHS dentist.

As for the expenses I will never understand why when tax payers paid mortgages etc..... Why these never became assets of the nation

Oh well, another one bites the dust!

I thought his speech was good, if a little sad, and it was lovely to see his children too, such a shame his daughter wasn't with them, too, poor little girl.

Not looking forward to Cameron coming on board.

I wonder too about all the things that were going on in government before the elections, did everything just freeze waiting for the situation to be sorted out? Does Gordon just wipe his hands of anything he was negotiating or dealing with? Is Gt Britain frozen in time till the new government starts work, and does the new PM just scrap everything that Gordon started and begin again? I am truly not looking forward to Cameron being in charge, he doesn't care about pensioners and such so I hope the LibDems will fight for oap causes.

Dermot ,I haven't seen any posters at all, and we only had one leaflet through our door leading up to the election.That was the Conservatives.

I agree Dermot, and I was so cross with the amount of paperwork that came through the door, lots of it duplicated or written on one side of the page only. What a waste!

Joan, I would have thought so, re the Queen being told. The reporter said the Queen is changing her Prime Minister, fgs, she has no say in it lol. They should rephrase that and say the Queen has to be told her PM has changed!!!
Can you imagine having to pack up and leave so quickly, I suppose they have been packing stuff already probably knowing what would happen.

Deanna, when you said Tony rang you I thought for a mo you meant Tony Blair lolol Thought you had friends in high places lol

I don't hold out a lot of hope for anything better than we already had and look at all the money it's cost to hold these elections. I suppose it means another evening or more of waffle and such.

I just want things back to normal, am fed up trying to make head or tail of the news and such - just tell us when it's done!

Tony phoned me about 3o minutes ago to tell me that Liz....
I quite agree with you.
I cannot stand him either.
Who in this world born with a silver spoon in his mouth leading to a private education, can understand any of our fears??
AND.... I knew before they told us that this was going to happen. I watched Clegg 'strutting' down the path earlier...
God bless him, It may even blow up in his face.... or OURS. We don't know what was promised or even discussed.
Ah well, lets see what happens now.

wish they would just wait and tell us when it's really decided! All programmes on itv changed so we can have an hour of waffle and perhaps this and maybe that!

Seems Gordon's luggage is already going out the backdoor of No 10 and we are to get a LibDemCon government lol

I have to say I can't stand David Cameron, he is more smarmy than Tony Blair, so am not sure what to expect with things now, more and more I am wishing i had a desert island to escape to!
