banana Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 I do love all the shouting for voting reform from random politicians from small parties who it'd help... but no mention that would include a very sizable UKIP percentage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is that irrelevant if the one party reaches majority If one party has a majority it means that they have more seats than everyone else put together, so even combined, they will still fall short of the majority number.

Broken Algorithms Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Can a coalition still happy by other parties to get a bigger majority? Or is that irrelevant if the one party reaches majority If the polls continue to be correct, then they'll need 326 which puts them over the line. However, due to the gigantic question mark over the eurozone, it'll mean it is highly unstable. Ed Balls and UKIP defector Reckless.... What a disasterous night for Labour, the Lib Dems and the frankly irrelevant UKIP.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
