The active parties keep records of who voted and who they voted for.

If they knock on your door and you tell them that you voted for them, they may well record that, for their next visit.

Probably best to always tell them you voted for the other side.   It might sharpen them up a bit.

The SNP thought that 16 was too young for someone to decide that they wish to use a sunbed and so legislated to raise the age at which you could use one to 18. So 16 is worldly wise enough to vote, but not use a sunbed.

Politicians of every persuasion find it easy to come up with legislation that doesn't make sense..

Never surprises me at all,  but then,  I have a dim view of the lot of them.

Looks like the Tories are gonna do well and hit the magic number of 1000

They did predict they might lose that many but that was their "exaggerate how badly we'll do so we can claim we did better than expected" figure.

LOL one of our local wards has stopped counting until Tuesday



Redcar and Cleveland Council pause counting until Tuesday

Amid the last flurry of results, some news to bring you which means the council elections will now not officially finish until Tuesday.

This is because Redcar and Cleveland Council has stopped counting with just two results to come.

The council tweeted: "Following a second recount, candidates in the Longbeck Ward have agreed for a third recount to take place on Tuesday 9 May at Redcar and Cleveland House beginning at 10am."
