RDM59: The conservatives only had one seat in Scotland and they have retained that. It's Labour that have suffered the wrath of the Scots. They now have just one MP to represent them in Scotland, they had 41 seats prior to the election.
Even though they got some seats in Scotland they are by far a minority party at Westminster and will still be ruled by the tories.
tomcatwarne: The Conservatives gained a convincing win in the UK. So it may be goodbye Europe.
Congratulations to the SNP. This working class version of the Labour party would have done very well wrong in England, too. The Cosmopolitan/Hipster-Left has taken a real kicking in this election(both Labour and Lib Dem)despite the increasing population of immigrants and the Tories being in power.
I'm relieved that the Tories have stayed in for lack of a better option(as always). And UKIP are disappointingly underrepresented: 4 million votes translating into only one seat.

truheart1941: ..in a way ,i,m glad how things worked out...better the devil you know....then one you dont...jmo.
I think that philosophy is probably what caused the unexpected swing to the right in England. I've got to admit, Cameron's face, personality, charisma etc is fit for purpose at home and abroad. Shame I don't agree with his politics. Had labour had a better front man I wonder how it might have turned out then.
Anyway, congrats to you and Tom ... But the battle for social justice shall continue, with a new face and persona fit for the job next time, I hope.

The leader of your Queendom asked Cameron to prioritize things to form a new government for Great Britain, to help conservatives win in the USA, improve the free world image in media controlled Russia, and provide funds to help African immigrants in Italy as well as send more troops and equipment to Saudi Arabia to defeat Isis.
