But can he eat that burger better than Ed Milliband and his bacon sandwich...



It's ridiculous that the above picture will probably be one of the defining images of this election...

hey Kennedy (L) beat Nixon in 1960 because he looked better on television. That's democracy

That's American democracy, along with McDonalds, one of your more unfortunate exports...

Sitting watching the BBC coverage.

Exit poll currently predicting:

Conservative 316
Labour 239
SNP 58 (out of 59 Scottish seats!!)
Lib Dems 10
Plaid Cymru 4
UKIP 2

Conservatives still short of an overall majority.

Will be interesting to see if that changes much over the night.

so much for polling data that showed its too close to call.
